Ross Atkins is cautiously optimistic that the Toronto Blue Jays are better equipped to compete in 2025 .

The Blue Jays general manager says he feels great about the team.

Atkins was particularly enthusiastic about the trade with the Cleveland Guardians that brought defensive ace second baseman Andres Gimenez to the Jays.

The acquisition of reliever Jeff Hoffman is the other highlight of the Jays self-improvement efforts.

Now-retired centre fielder Kevin Kiermaier has rejoined the Blue Jays as a special assistant.

He will work with outfielders at multiple levels throughout the organization.

“Let me show you what I can do. Let me be the outfield whisperer to these guys,” he said.
