Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Chris Bassitt recently touched on his future with the Blue Jays on the JD Bunkis Podcast and he seemed quite confident.

Bassitt has been surrounded by rumors throughout the off-season and even parts of last year as he enters the final year of his contract and many believe that the Blue Jays might look to move him.

Blue Jays Chris Bassitt speaks on his future with the team

The Blue Jays pitcher was on the JD Bunkis podcast recently and spoke on a bunch of different things such as his future with the organization and the addition of his former teammate Max Scherzer.
Bassitt was asked during the interview if he ever questioned his future in Toronto due to their poor 2024 season and he stated that he has never run away from a battle and added that he is very happy in Toronto.
«Not at all. Not even a little bit. I know there was a lot of things wrote and there was a lot of talkI'm definitely not one to run away from a so-called a tough environment.

I'm definitely not one to run away from any challenges, so to speak. I understand the business I understand kind of how media works and things like that but I'm very, very happy with being in Toronto.

I'm very, very happy with my family being in Toronto. And obviously I'm happy enough to tell my friends to come here to help us win a championship. All the negativity, I think, the majority of it is all just media-related.» -Bassitt

During the interview he even stated as proof that if he was not happy in Toronto he would not have sold Max Scherzer on the Blue Jays in which he was apparently a big part in landing him.
Then what about those tough environment rumors? He doesn't buy into them. He mentioned that he happily told his friends in MLB to come to Toronto and help him win a championship. Well, major spoiler-he did pitch Max Scherzer! -Das

While Bassitt seems quite happy in Toronto, his future with the Blue Jays is not guaranteed as they might look to move him before the season or even at the trade deadline since rumors are that they do not plan on re-signing him.
His game has declined over the last year but at the ssame time he is still a solid and consistent pitcher that can help the Blue Jays win games if they decide to keep him.
