Blue Jays To Part With Guillermo Martinez As Hitting Coach
3 days agoThe Toronto Blue Jays will reportedly not be bringing back Guillermo Martinez as the team's hitting coach for the 2025 season, per TSN's Scott Mitchell. Martinez had served as the team's hitting coach for the last six seasons. The team had successful seasons between 2022-23. However, they finished 2024 in last place in the American League East with a 74-88 record. Their .702 team OPS was tied for 17th this season and their 671 runs scored was 23rd. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. performed like a high-end fantasy player, but the rest of the lineup was unable to string together consistent production throughout the season. Fantasy managers will have to see if the Blue Jays change up their roster this off-season, but they could potentially be a relative dry spot for offensive fantasy value again in 2025.
