The Blue Jays' lineup needs a big shakeup in 2027. Could Ketel Marte be the antidote to the Jays' offensive woes?

The Blue Jays need starting pitching, and Shane Bieber has expressed an interest in returning to Toronto. Seems like a good fit, right? Well, it's a little more complicated.

George Springer's free agent contract was the first in excess of five years by the Toronto Blue Jays. More importantly, his deal ushered in a new era of winning baseball in Toronto.

ICYMI - Vladdy isn't wrong, but he also isn't right. bluejaysnation.com/news/vladimi...

Thoughts on Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s comments from earlier this week. He's not wrong, but he also didn't read the room.

A playoff spot was there for the taking for the Blue Jays for most of the season, but they failed to capitalize. The Jays missed a golden opportunity in 2026.

Reminds me of that Adam Sandler Romano Tours SNL sketch. "If you are sad where you are, then you get on a plane to Italy, the you in Italy will be the same sad you from before, just in a new place."

The final days of George Springer's six-year deal with the Blue Jays are coming to a close. Should the Blue Jays bring back their 2025 postseason hero for one more year?

The Blue Jays and Orioles are familiar foes in double headers, for whatever reason. This was the lineup the Jays rolled out for the evening game of their double header against the O's on September 30, 2015. This was the day the Jays clinched the AL East.

In case you missed it from last night, this is Jose Rodriguez's delivery - one of the most unique ways to deliver a pitch in MLB. 📹 Sportsnet

The Blue Jays weren't supposed to be here. But with 9 games left to play, they have a shot at making the postseason ... an opportunity they should be thankful for.

At this point in the season (especially for a team that pseudo sold at the trade deadine), all you're asking for is a chance at the postseason. It hasn't been pretty at times for the Blue Jays, but they have a shot with 9 games to play.

Homerless at home no more. Up until yesterday, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. had the third-longest active streak of homerless games at home, at 84 consecutive games. 📸 John E. Sokolowski-Imagn Images 📊 @stathead.com | @baseball-reference.com

ICYMI - Despite underperformance from some of the big names on the Toronto Blue Jays roster, these unsung heroes are helping keep the team's playoff hopes afloat.

These under-the-radar players are fuelling the Blue Jays' late-season surge.

As the Blue Jays fight for their playoff lives in September, looking back at how they've fared in previous late-season runs into the postseason.

Most of the 2026 campaign has been a write-off for Vladimir Guerrero Jr. But he still has time to salvage the final stretch of the season.

So you're saying there's a chance? Back on August 5th, the Blue Jays' playoff odds were a season-low 4.3%. Since then, their playoff odds have risen to 33%. (Via @fangraphs.com)

I was working on this piece pre-game, so the reverse jinx for Vladdy is on, I guess?

The lost season for Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has almost reached its merciful end. Three of the four worst months of his career by OPS have been this year. He just wrapped August with a .558 OPS, the third-worst single-month OPS of his career. 📷 Dan Hamilton-Imagn Images 📊 @stathead.com

With a handful of starts to come for Dylan Cease, he's on track to have a top-3 strikeout season by a Blue Jays SP. It's unlikely Cease will match Clemens' 292 Ks in 1997, but Cease will smash the Blue Jays' record for K/9 in a single season. 📷 John E. Sokolowski-Imagn Images 📊 @stathead.com

On the day that Buck Martinez is enshrined into the Blue Jays' new Hall of Excellence, let's listen back to his best calls from the broadcast booth.

The Blue Jays are suddenly a pitching and defence team. And this new identity is fuelling their dramatic second-half surge.

Looking back at Kevin Gausman's best games in a Blue Jays uniform. bluejaysnation.com/news/looking...

A look back on Kevin Gausman's time with the Blue Jays. He was a quintessential workhorse and a player who ushered in a new era of Blue Jays baseball.

Overall, I'd say that was a productive trade deadline for the Blue Jays. They checked all these items off their list: ✅ Picked up a controllable starter with upside in Soriano ✅ Maximized the return on Varsho (likely a departing free agent) ✅ Sold high on Hoffman

Let's not forget Kevin Gausman's ultimate contribution to Blue Jays lore.

If today is Kevin Gausman's last start with the Blue Jays, he will go down as a top 10 starting pitcher in franchise history. His 80 quality starts rank him 8th overall among all Blue Jays starters. 📸 Kevin Sousa-Imagn Images 📊 @stathead.com | @baseball-reference.com

ICYMI - Some of the best controllable starting pitchers on the trade market for the Blue Jays.

The Blue Jays, buyers in this market? They need starting pitching help for next year and beyond, and these starters could be intriguing options for the Jays.

I often blabber here about the Blue Jays, but I also do all kinds of freelance sports writing, content writing, and copywriting. If you need a writer to tell the story of your brand or business, my new website has more info, with my full portfolio. Thanks in advance!

ICYMI - A Kingston, Ontario toy store has been flooded with requests for this toy that's become the hottest item on the shelves: a fire-breathing dragon on a stick. Now you can conjure up some magic with your own home run mascot, just like the Toronto Blue Jays. bluejaysnation.com/news/the-blu...

ICYMI - You know you've made it as a pro baseball player when you have a beer named after you, and you have three bobbleheads fashioned after your likeness. Thus has been the journey for Ernie James Clement. bluejaysnation.com/news/ernie-c...

The Toronto Blue Jays have a new good luck charm: a fire-breathing dragon on a stick. It's the hottest item for sale at a Kingston-based toy store. Here's how you can get your hands on the Blue Jays' new home run celebration accessory.

What a year for Ernie Clement. He was named to Team USA for the WBC, and received the most votes for any American League All-Star. Clement now has his very own beer, and a third bobblehead to be released later this month.

The Mariners and Blue Jays joined MLB as expansion teams in 1977, yet the M's have hosted 3 All-Star Games, while the Jays have only hosted one. And there's no promise of an All-Star Game on the horizon for Toronto.

It's been 35 years and counting since Toronto hosted the MLB All-Star Game. When will the Blue Jays get a shot at hosting this marquee event again?

At 45-51, the Blue Jays are now dead last in the AL East, but still somehow 2.5 games out of a playoff spot. Make it make sense, American League.

Jeff Hoffman no longer leads MLB in reliever BABIP. Time to pop some bubbly? He was on pace for a historically high batting average on balls in play, but it's down to .396. 📸 Bob Kupbens-Imagn Images 📊 Via @stathead.com | @baseball-reference.com

Last week, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. opted not to participate in the All-Star Game, citing back issues. Yet, he's continued to play this week. Is Vladdy doing more harm than good by not going on the IL?

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitchers are no strangers to ninth inning heartbreak. These are all the near no-hitters in franchise history.
