AUGUST 11 • Associated Press

Fading back into reserve role Straw is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Red Sox.

Impact With George Springer (shoulder) returning to action Monday and with trade-deadline pickup Brett Bateman having settled in as the main replacement in center field for the departed Daulton Varsho, Straw looks poised to serve as a fourth outfielder for Toronto. Straw had started in eight of the Blue Jays' first nine games of August, going 7-for-32 (.219 average) with four doubles, one triple, one walk, one stolen base, four runs and one RBI.

AUGUST 5 • MLB.COM

Gets start in center against righty Straw went 2-for-3 with a double and a stolen base in Monday's win over the Astros.

Impact With Daulton Varsho having swapped clubhouses at the trade deadline -- he got the start in center field for Houston on Monday -- it was Straw who handled center for Toronto in the first game after the deal, even with right-hander Cristian Javier on the mound for the home side. Nathan Lukes, who has also seen action in center this season and bats from the left side, got the start in right field instead. While the Jays will likely continue to mix and match their outfield, Straw's got the best defensive profile of all their current center-field options, although his offensive contributions are lacking. Through 100 games in 2026, the 31-year-old has managed a .223/.279/.324 slash line with three homers, seven steals in eight attempts, 17 RBI and 29 runs.

Urías homers and Blue Jays beat Nationals 3-2 in Scherzer's return to Washington

JULY 28 • Associated Press

Shows off versatility Thursday Straw went 0-for-2 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base in Thursday's win over the Rays.

Impact The veteran speedster got the start in center field but wound up playing all three outfield spots over the course of the afternoon as the Blue Jays went to their bench frequently in a 3-1 win. Straw has seen his playing time pick up of late, but over his last 10 games he's batting just .136 (3-for-33) with two runs and two steals. If Toronto ends up as a seller at the trade deadline, however, he could wind up as the team's top option in center field down the stretch with Daulton Varsho a likely candidate to be moved.
