The Toronto Blue Jays have finalized their Opening Day bench with Davis Schneider, Daniel Vogelbach, and Ernie Clement, all of whom demonstrated strong performances during spring training and showed promise in previous seasons. Clement stood out with his .380 batting average, 19 hits, 10 RBI, and seven runs scored in 30 games with the Blue Jays last year. Schneider, the youngest of the trio, made an impactful debut by hitting a home run in his first major league at-bat and setting a historic record. Vogelbach, known for his power hitting, contributed with three homers and four RBI during spring training, building on his solid performance in 2023 with the New York Mets.
The Blue Jays’ bench is poised to make significant contributions, especially with improved performances with runners in scoring position (RISP) during spring training, addressing a previous season’s issue. Fans are eager to see how Schneider, Clement, and Vogelbach will continue to excel in the upcoming season, starting with Opening Day on March 28.
