Entering the 2021 season, there was no doubt that Danny Jansen was going to be the Toronto Blue Jays go-to guy behind the plate. Even with the emergence of fellow catching prospect Alejandro Kirk last season, Jansen is always catching when Hyun-Jin Ryu is on the mound and has appeared in 13 of the 18 games the Blue Jays have played this season.
