Blue Jays could be interested in signing outfielder Jurickson Profar
Profar is an interesting situation since he had the best year of his career this season which was his 11th year in the majors as he is now 31 years old which is not often seen in the MLB.
The former Padres outfielder put up a career year with 158 hits, 24 homeruns and a .839 OPS while also putting up great numbers defensively which is why he could be so intriguing for the Blue Jays.
Profar put up career numbers across the board, including hits (158), home runs (24), OPS (.839), and wRC+ (139). The 6'0″ 190-pounder typically slotted second or third in a deep Padres lineup, showing that he had the full trust of manager Mike Shildt ahead of some of the big bats. -Georges
While Profar would not be a massive signing like some of the bigger names the Blue Jays have been linked to this off-season, for the right price he could be a very consistent player which will definitely benefit the team.
Signing Profar would likely be an underwhelming addition to the Blue Jays fan base. Profar is probably best viewed as a solid piece of the puzzle (like he was in San Diego), as opposed to a bat that can change this lineup on his own like Soto or Pete Alonso. -Georges
