The Toronto Blue Jays have been busy making valuable additions to their contending roster this offseason with first Dylan Cease and later Cody Ponce joining their pitching staff. But apparently the roster isn’t the only thing that the Blue Jays are looking to improve ahead of the 2026 MLB season.
On Tuesday (Dec. 9), the Blue Jays added former World Series champion Drew Butera to their major league coaching staff. He previously worked for the Chicago White Sox in the capacity of a catching instructor for the past two years.

Originally selected by Toronto out of high school in the 48th round of the 2022 MLB Draft, Butera never actually ended up playing for the organization as he opted to attend university instead at the University of Central Florida.
