Chris Bassitt excited about new additions to the Blue Jays and season outlook.

"We are a lot better, it's like night and day obviously Anthony Santander is an absolute massive upgrade for what we need. Adding the bullpen pieces and with Max Scherzer we are a much better team now then we were.

"I'm a ground ball pitcher so ya...ya, when we went to Cleveland and saw him play I was like holy moly! I don't think its a stretch at all to say that we have the two best defenders in all of baseball in Andres Gimenez and Daulton Varsho. Luckily we have one in the infield and one in the outfield, I think it's going to be a really fun year for the pitchers to be able to trust in their defense and let them do their thing."

"It's crazy how good he is and how young he is, there is so much back and forth when it comes to baseball, you think you have it figured out and then the pitchers figure you out. So for him to understand how to adjust and understand what he has to do strength training wise it's very very impressive at his age. I think the sky is the limit for him and what he can become, he's already one of the best players in the world and I think he can become better. The game comes so easy to him, has the ability and the talent that other players are not able to do he's an absolute monster."
