George Springer’s leadoff role in doubt for 2025

Blue Jays manager John Schneider suggested Thursday that George Springer might not anchor the leadoff spot in 2025, per team reports.

Fantasy Impact

Springer’s been the Blue Jays’ go-to leadoff man since arriving, but Schneider’s eyeing Bo Bichette for that slot—or cleanup—based on matchups, with Vladimir Guerrero and Anthony Santander locked in at second and third. Springer could slide into whichever spot Bichette skips. Fantasy managers can still bank on his power-speed mix, though a lineup drop might tweak his run-scoring upside.
