There is a lot of pressure on Toronto Blue Jays prospect third baseman, Addison Barger. The clock is ticking in these last 2 months of the season to showcase that the has what it takes to play in the Major Leagues.

Addison Barger has a lot on the line these next two months because there is such a gap between his potential ceiling and his floor.

If he can show the #BlueJays he's reliable enough to be a 3B/OF bench option in 2025, that's a win. Regular at-bats can only help.
Barger has been up and down with the Jays and Buffalo Bisons this season, but now that Justin Turner and other players have been traded, this is his opportunity to step up to the plate (pun not intended) and show the team he can be a regular MLB player.
As of right now, the 24-year-old cannon is hitting a disappointing .169, with no home runs and a -.07 wins above replacement (WAR).
The time is now Addison!
