Opinions are mixed when it comes to how the Blue Jays fared at the 2025 trade deadline. But one thing that will go a long way to determining how successful Toronto was is what kind of impact infielder Ty France will make.

France, acquired with right-hander Louis Varland from the Minnesota Twins, was seen by many as an underwhelming addition. With some big bats available last month, it may have been disappointing for Blue Jays fans to see Toronto add one guy with an OPS of .678, and just six home runs in 391 plate appearances.
