Grab your stool, your beverage, and prepare to spend! The JBW bar room is officially the center of the MLB offseason and we want to hear from YOU!

The Toronto Blue Jays are fresh off their American League Championship run, and the league is taking notice: insiders are calling Toronto THE offseason destination. This is the moment we've waited for—the front office is positioned to make a massive splash and FINISH THE STORY in 2026!

Join the Jay Bird Watching Podcast crew LIVE to break down the hottest rumors and what it means for the roster:

THE TUCKER SHOCKWAVE: ESPN's Jeff Passan and other executives view the Blue Jays as the favorite to sign top free agent Kyle Tucker. Can the front office seal potentially the biggest free agent deal in franchise history?

BO'S NEXT MOVE: With Bo Bichette declining the qualifying offer, we discuss the high-stakes negotiation. Is a reunion likely, or are we preparing for the unthinkable?

Where Does the Money Go? Beyond the megastars, we analyze the critical need for a frontline starter (like Dylan Cease or Ranger Suarez) and bullpen help to push us past the finish line.

It all has come down to this. World Series Game 7: Blue Jays vs. Dodgers for the Commissioner's Trophy.

The Jay Bird Watching Podcast crew, Craig Borden and Jason Lyons, are going LIVE one final time to mentally prepare for the biggest game in a generation. Last regular season episode of the JBW Podcast before offseason programming commences.

We are still recovering from the truly unlucky ending to Game 6. It took a ball getting stuck in a wall and a double play that should never happen for these Dodgers to take the W in Game 6.

Tune in as we look for any sign that the Baseball Gods will finally shine on Toronto, break down the pitching matchups, and discuss which unlikely hero must step up tonight in the final round of this heavyweight match-up.

Grab a beer, pull up a chair, and let's get those lucky charms ready for one more insane ride. We want your desperate Game 7 predictions. We'll be shouting them out live on the #Livestream!

The Toronto Blue Jays are ONE WIN AWAY from the World Series title. We are shutting down the trick or treating early and heading to the bar to get ready for possibly the biggest night in Canadian baseball in over 30 years!

We are thrilled to welcome special guests, former Blue Jay and World Series Champion Todd Stottlemyre, and our friend Darryl Silverstein from J. Birdy (Canada's Baseball Brand) to share his insights and to help get amped up before game time!

Join the Jay Bird Watching Podcast crew LIVE for a high-anxiety, pre-game edition of the Bar Room Chat as we break down what it will take to secure the championship against the Dodgers in Game 6.

We're discussing the biggest questions:

The Yamamoto Hurdle: Kevin Gausman has to go pitch-for-pitch against a pitcher who shut down the Jays earlier in the series. How do the bats solve the puzzle this time?

The Springer Factor: Is George Springer playing? And if he is, what is his true impact on the lineup?

Pressure Cooker: How does this team handle the hype and the insanely electric crowd of the SkyDome?
