Myles Straw is a 31-year-old, right-handed hitting, center fielder. The Jays traded for him on January 17th, 2025. We got Myles Straw and some international bonus pool money money. At the time we thought/hoped the money would go to Roki Sasaki. Unfortunately, Roki went to the Dodgers and the Jays had to pretend they wanted [ ]

His slam off Patrick Halligan was projected at 399 feet. Barger was in the cleanup spot today. He'll likely open up hitting either second, fourth or fifth against righties; presumably either he or Daulton Varsho will bat between George Springer and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. at the top and then it's a matter of whether the Jays would prefer Alejandro Kirk fourth or fifth. Barger also now stands a better chance of playing against lefties with Anthony Santander down. Davis Schneider will almost certainly platoon with Jesus Sanchez in left, and then the Jays can pick their spots on whether Myles Straw should start over Barger against certain lefties.
