News
	Blue Jays outfielder George Springer went 1-for-4 with a homer, a walk, and an additional runs scored in a 10-0 win over the Giants on Wednesday. Brenton Kemp Thu, Jul 9th	Kyle Higashioka went 1-for-1 with a solo home run as a pinch hitter in Wednesday’s 13-1 loss to the Angels. He hit the homer in the eighth inning to put Texas on the board, then stayed in the game as a pitcher and allowed two runs on two hits with a hit batter in one inning of mop-up work. Bruno Mulé Thu, Jul 9th
	The Blue Jays activated OF/DH George Springer from the family medical emergency list. Ari Koslow Mon, Jul 6th	Higashioka is slashing .235/.313/.391 with five home runs, 14 RBI, and 15 runs scored across 128 plate appearances this season and has recorded three multi-hit games over his last 10 appearances. His three-run homer cleared the Green Monster in the second inning Sunday to extend the Rangers' lead before he added a single in the seventh. Bruno Mulé Mon, Jun 15th
	George Springer could join the Blue Jays in San Francisco on Monday. Ari Koslow Mon, Jul 6th	Kyle Higashioka went 1-for-3 in a loss to the Angels with a solo home run and one walk. Chris Schommer Sun, May 24th
	The Blue Jays are placing Springer on the Family Medical Emergency List. Ari Koslow Sat, Jul 4th	Kyle Higashioka went 2-for-4 in a win over the Astros with a home run, two runs scored, and three RBI. Chris Schommer Sun, May 17th
	Blue Jays manager John Schneider said George Springer remains day-to-day on the paternity list. Ari Koslow Fri, Jul 3rd	Higashioka is backing up starter Danny Jansen in Texas and nearly went deep in the third inning before fouling one off and settling for a single. He connected in the fifth, taking George Kirby deep for a two-run blast — his first home run of the season. Bruno Mulé Wed, Apr 8th
Notes
	George Springer silenced skeptics in 2025 with his strongest campaign since 2019, turning in a monster season at age 35. He appeared in 140 games, launching 32 home runs while scoring 106 runs, driving in 84, and swiping 18 bases. His .309/.399/.560 slash line was the best of his career, and his 166 wRC+ ranked third across MLB. The obvious question is how to value Springer heading into his age-36 season in 2026. A repeat batting average is unlikely, as his .309 mark was fueled by a .340 BABIP—well above his career norm. Most projections pull his power back into the mid-20s for home runs, but the strength of the lineup around him should help preserve strong run and RBI totals, along with roughly 15 stolen bases. If Springer can once again stay on the field for around 140 games, he remains a valuable fantasy asset. While a full encore of 2025 shouldn't be expected, even modest regression still leaves him among the more reliable contributors. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros
