One of the top trade pieces for the Toronto Blue Jays as we approach Monday's deadline is outfielder George Springer. He's been on a hot streak of late, and after a tough first half of the season, teams are starting to take notice. But Springer has earned his 10-and-5 rights—at least 10 years of Major League service time and the past 5 consecutive seasons with the same team. That means he has a full no-trade clause. However, a report from Julian McWilliams of...
With the fanbase wondering what the Toronto Blue Jays will do before Monday’s trade deadline, one former general manager would ponder the idea of New York Mets star Francisco Lindor heading to the AL East ball club. As rumors surround the Blue Jays ahead of the trade deadline, there’s no denying a deal for Lindor […] The post Ex-GM drops Blue Jays-Mets Francisco Lindor trade idea appeared first on ClutchPoints .
With the Philadelphia Phillies looking to the trade deadline to bolster its roster for the rest of the 2026 season, there are some deals that the team is looking to make, specifically one for a certain Los Angeles Angels star. As rumors will surround the Phillies ahead of the trade deadline on Monday, this insider […] The post MLB rumors: Phillies want Angels trade, but Blue Jays present ‘intriguing’ alternative appeared first on ClutchPoints .
O, Canada. The St. Louis Cardinals have crossed the border in search of some badly-needed momentum and Toronto just might be a great place to find it as the Blue Jays are reeling. But, if you look at both teams on paper, the Cardinals will need to find their A-game to win the series against […]
Sixty players from 11 countries are descending on Illinois for six weeks.
The St. Louis Cardinals are promoting left-handed starter Quinn Mathews to MLB. He'll make his debut against the Toronto Blue Jays this weekend. He brings strikeout stuff, sometimes scary walk rates, and unique experience for a prospect.
Yesterday, I looked at the prospects on our top 40 or various honourable mention lists who were still prospects in the organization. Today, a look at changes prior to the deadline. I’ll do a follow-up next week to look at the prospects they add (and any they happen to subtract). No Longer In the Organization: […]
Since the Jays aren’t going to make any trade news until I walk into the theater, let’s look back. On this day 11 years ago: The Blue Jays traded Daniel Norris, Matt Boyd, and Jairo Labourt to the Tigers in exchange for David Price. At the time of the trade, the Jays were 52-51, tied […]
The Phillies are interested in Blue Jays outfielder Daulton Varsho, reports Jon Heyman of The New York Post. Earlier today, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reported that the two clubs are emerging as potential trade partners, mentioning that Varsho, Kevin Gausman, Shane Bieber, Jeff Hoffman and George Springer could be fits for the Phils. Jeff […]
Today and tomorrow, in advance of the trade deadline, I want to do a quick (relatively, it’s me writing) review of the state of the farm. It’s been an eventful year to date, with significant graduations, a trade addition already and more to come, and the draft, plus significant movement among the extisting members of […]
The Phillies are interested in Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Daulton Varsho, according to Jon Heyman of The New York Post. […]
Buried in the AL East cellar, last year's pennant winners have several players who could be on the move in the coming days.
Two teams that will be making moves at the trade deadline, for different reasons, are the Philadelphia Phillies and Toronto Blue Jays . The Phils are desperate to turn things around amidst their recent swoon (2-8 over their last 10, but still in a Wild Card spot with a ton of elite talent), while the Jays are obvious sellers in a season gone wrong. Insider Jon Morosi says that those two teams are emerging as trade partners. The Blue Jays & Phillies are emerging as trade partners, as I reported...
There could be a trade in the works between the Philadelphia Phillies and Toronto Blue Jays.
The Jays have the day off and then play 17 days in a row. One of those fun parts about being a baseball player is that there are often long stretches between weekends and, generally, weekends are just one day long. I’m using much of this day off watching The Odyssey. I haven’t been to […]
A new trade deadline rumor suggests the Houston Astros are seriously considering a reunion with a former star to address […]
The 54-year-old scripted his life story in a way that went far beyond baseball. He was a bouncer at a local bar, he worked in the mortgage industry, he was a coach, he played golf, and he was an English literature graduate, among other things. So, one can only imagine the kind of impact he […] The post MLB World Suffers Heartbreaking Loss as Former Blue Jays Catcher Dies Unexpectedly at Just 54 appeared first on EssentiallySports .
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Washington Nationals entered Wednesday afternoon’s rubber match with the Toronto Blue Jays just one game back of the final National League wild card spot. In a pivotal contest for the team’s playoff hopes, the Nationals lost, 5-2. Outfielder Jacob Young got the scoring started for Washington, lacing an RBI double in […] The post Nationals Notebook: Game Recap, Williams and Irvin Returning appeared first on Just Baseball .
The beauty of most deals made at the MLB trade deadline is that the full picture won't be clear until years later, as prospect development is often the determining factor in who "wins" the trade.
Blue Jays 5 Nationals 2 That was a fun game. Until the sixth inning, we were losing 1-0. Well, from the fourth inning until the sixth inning we were losing 1-0. We tied it in the sixth. George Springer walked to lead off the game. Two outs later, Ernie Clement doubled him home. And we […]
The Nats are no strangers to rubber matches, and they find themselves in another one today. This time they will look to take the series from the Blue Jays. The Nats have won three straight series coming out of the break, and they will look for number four. This is a big opportunity for the […]
They say the fun part about watching baseball is that you can always see something you’ve never seen before. But there is nothing fun about watching a former Cy Young winner walk six batters in the first inning. They are saying it was the heat and the sweat that made it so that Bieber couldn’t […]
On paper, the Braves and the Blue Jays make perfect sense as trade partners. The Braves are obvious buyers sitting atop the NL East, while the Blue Jays are in last place in the AL East and 5.5 games back of the final wild card spot with several teams between them. They are likely sellers, […]
In a season full of almosts and not-quites, it seemed like the Toronto Blue Jays were finally on the verge of sustained success. Yet, for a multitude of reasons, they find themselves nine games below .500. Can they turn things around? It seems unlikely. To put it bluntly, this season has been a nightmare. Coming […] The post What Does the Rest of the Season Look Like for the Blue Jays? appeared first on Just Baseball .
