Blue Jays' rising star Addison Barger crushes the competition with unbelievable bat speed

In his last at-bat against the Atlanta Braves last night, Barger generated a bat speed of 82.7 MPH which is the highest of the Blue Jays this season and resulted in an error. To give you some context, Giancarlo Stanton averages 81 MPH and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has never swung a bat that fast.

His numbers might not reflect how good Barger has been as he had a very slow start to the season. But now with his 3rd stint with he Jays, he is setting his sights as he has been raking.

Blue Jays fans have flooded to social media to beg management to not even consider trading him this offseason as they think he will be a major star next season.

We look forward to next year with these young studs!
