Jays Digest

They're Going All In...

The Toronto Blue Jays are linked to free agent outfielder Randy Arozarena after Ken Rosenthal said "I expect the Blue Jays to be active" this offseason. A year after Game 7 of the World Series, the Jays scored 648 runs in 2026, the fewest in MLB, and their outfield was 19th in OPS. Arozarena just had the best season of his career with the Mariners: an .865 OPS, 26 home runs, 26 stolen bases and 113 runs. He's expected to decline the Mariners' $23.15 million qualifying offer, due Nov 17, and signing him would cost Toronto its 2nd and 5th highest 2027 draft picks. Bleacher Report projects 5 years and $140 million. We compare him to Seiya Suzuki, look back at the George Springer signing, and ask who else is calling. Nick Gosse breaks it all down.

The Texas Rangers could put Corey Seager on the trade market, and the Toronto Blue Jays need exactly what he brings: a left-handed bat at shortstop.

Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reports the Rangers will search for trade partners for Corey Seager and Jacob deGrom. The Blue Jays scored the fewest runs in the American League in 2026, finished last in the AL East, and Bo Bichette is staying with the Mets. So is Seager a buy-low golden opportunity for Toronto, or a $162.5 million risk? We break down his Statcast numbers, the infield fit with Andrés Giménez at second base, his contract, his health and what a trade could cost. Nick Gosse breaks it all down.

The Toronto Blue Jays have the checkbook ready. Jim Bowden says Toronto is expected to be in play for the biggest names in free agency, including Tarik Skubal and Seiya Suzuki. And today, David Bell stepped down from the front office. Is this the winter the Jays finally go huge?

Skubal is the best arm on the market, and because he finished 2026 as a Dodger, he comes with no qualifying offer and no draft pick attached. Suzuki is coming off 26 home runs and an .841 OPS with the Cubs. But with about $39 million of room under theble lockout on December 1,landing both means paying the tax again. Nick Gosse breaks it down.

Would you go after Skubal AND Suzuki, even if it means blowing past the tax?

The Toronto Blue Jays declined Myles Straw's 2027 club option as MLB free agency opened, and reinstated Addison Barger, Anthony Santander, Jose Berrios and 4 more from the 60-day IL. Straw made 0 errors in 147 games in 2026, but with Daulton Varsho traded to Houston, Brett Bateman is the only centre fielder left on the 40-man. Four of the 7 players back from the IL didn't play a game in 2026, and the Jays finished 30th in MLB in runs and home runs. With a lockout expected Dec 1, Seiya Suzuki's qualifying offer due Nov 17 and Teruaki Sato posted, November is going to be busy. Nick Gosse breaks down.

Were you surprised the Jays let Myles Straw go? And if you're Ross Atkins, who do you go after first? Tell us in the comments.

The Blue Jays are going bigger than we thought this offseason: Ken Rosenthal puts Toronto in the mix for Seiya Suzuki, and Jeff Passan links them to Ketel Marte.

Free agency opened today, and with a lockout expected on December 1, the Blue Jays have 29 days to fix an offence that finished 30th out of 30 in runs (648) and home runs (152) in 2026. Ben Nicholson-Smith says Toronto has no choice but to add real impact and expects a busy November. Ken Rosenthal says the Jays need more offense, and Seiya Suzuki (.368 OBP) fits right in. Jeff Passan says Arizona is willing to listen on Ketel Marte. Randy Arozarena, Luis Arraez, Ian Happ, Teruakil are on the board too. Can the Jays afford more than one big bat with $39.1 million of luxury tax room

The Arizona Diamondbacks are reportedly willing to trade Ketel Marte, and Jeff Passan says the Toronto Blue Jays could be the team that goes and gets him.

Arizona will listen to offers on its 3-time All-Star second baseman after missing the playoffs for a 3rd straight year, and Passan joined Blair and Barker on Sportsnet 590 The FAN to talk about the Blue Jays and the infield fit. We break down why Toronto needs a second baseman after a 79-83 season, whether Marte's down year (.748 OPS) was bad luck, his full no-trade clause, the $87.5 million left on his contract, and what Ross Atkins would have to give up.

Nick Gosse goes through every report from September 28 to October 30, why Suzuki fits a Jays offence that finished last in MLB in runs (648) and home runs (152), what he hit in 2026 (.270/.368/.473, 26 home runs, 5.1 WAR), and whether the Blue Jays can afford a projected 5-year, $115 to $120 million deal.
