Kevin Kiermaier:
«I don't want this relationship with the Jays to end. So I got a lot more to offer Whatever way I can help the Blue Jays I'm going to do it.»
Is KK returning in someway to help the squad?
Kiermaier did specifically say that he does not know what the future holds with the Blue Jays but has mentioned in the past that he would love to get into coaching with the Blue Jays in the near future.
If the Blue Jays are able to bring Kiermaier in next season as an outfielder coach, he will surely be a massive help to all their prospects that are playing that position since during his prime he was the best defensive outfielder in baseball.
As Toronto has struggled in recent years when it comes to coaching, bringing in a former player of Kiermaier's caliber will surely have fans excited for the future and will be great for player development.
