Locked On Blue Jays - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Blue Jays

This is exactly what happened when I controlled the Blue Jays in MVP Baseball 2005.

The Blue Jays are apparently signing everyone! At least that's what reports are saying! A.J. Andrews breaks down the various rumours that the Jays are interested in Michael Brantley, Justin Turner, J.T. Realmuto and Ha-Seong Kim, and makes clear her preference for who Toronto should add to the roster! She also touches on the news that Toronto offered Kevin Gausman a three-year deal and he turned it down, and there are obvious reasons why.

Pretty sure I've used this title before.

In the ongoing coverage of "players who may be Blue Jays" we have our first "again" to add to that title, as J.P Morosi of MLB.com has linked J.A. Happ to Toronto... immediately after linking him to Texas and the Angels. A.J. Andrews looks over Happ's numbers in New York and wonders whether or not a reunion with the 2018 All-Star would be beneficial for the Blue Jays.

Think of the puns!

A.J. Andrews begins a further look at some Blue Jays free agent targets with Kolten Wong. Fans may not be familiar with the former Cardinal, but Andrews likes what Wong brings to the table, and does her best to explain why he could be a better option than D.J. LeMahieu.

So tired, y'all.

A.J. Andrews presses on, talking about the implications the Blue Jays' additions will have on the 40-man roster as the team aims for big moves in the off-season. Shockingly, the news is not good for Derek Fisher. But who else is on the edge? And how will the Blue Jays start creating space for new players? A.J. has some answers.

In the words of Lisa Miskovsky, I'm still alive.

A.J. Andrews breaks her silence during a rough week to discuss the five players the Blue Jays added to the 40-man roster ahead of next month's Rule V draft. Gabriel Moreno, Riley Adams, Otto Lopez, Josh Palacios and Ty Tice are at varying levels of what they can bring to the team, but they all have their reasons for being here, and Andrews goes over all of them. She also discusses why names like Logan Warmoth were left off, and identifies the player the Blue Jays are most likely to lose in the draft.

Yeah, this still isn't helping.

Following a summation of what the Blue Jays got in the 2012 deal with the Marlins, A.J. Andrews assesses what the Toronto team gave up and how much it ended up costing the team in capital down the road. Then, armed with her knowledge of transactions from the past decade, A.J. does her best to construct a trade that would be more likely to satisfy what Cleveland is looking to acquire in exchange for Francisco Lindor. Rowdy Tellez fans should turn that section of the podcast down.

This is not going to help the host's depression issues.

A.J. Andrews does her best to get back on the airwaves. She thanks the fans for their support on Twitter as she battles through a rough patch, and then attempts to lift her spirits by re-visiting the 2012 Blue Jays-Marlins trade! In this episode, she goes over the haul that the Blue Jays landed from the Marlins and the lessons that can be drawn to Ross Atkins' efforts to land a star player in this off-season. There are some differences to be sure, but still lessons to be had.

She's trying y'all.

A.J. Andrews manages to get another episode out, thanks to a Blue Jays mystery! Ross Atkins said the team was close to signing another deal at the same time they locked up Robbie Ray, but who could it be??? Everyone has their thoughts and the intrepid host has her own, but she runs a little counter to the prevailing theory. It's not a Ken Jeong-level guess, I swear. Plus, news that the Tigers are interested in Taijuan Walker, and her laughing about that notion.

Yep, still feeling like hell.

A.J. Andrews fights through a sore throat and a headache to talk about the Miami Marlins' hiring of Kim Ng, the first female and Asian-American GM in MLB history. She discusses why it took so long for her to actually get this job and what it opens up. Plus, she goes over the award results, why she only went 7/8 and what it means for Freddie Freeman to take home an MVP trophy. Plus a cameo Ryan Tepera mention!

Again, if you win money on these, let me know. I take tips.

A.J. Andrews wraps up a trilogy of episodes with a look at the 2020 awards season. She gives her predictions in both the AL and NL on Rookie of the Year, Manager of the Year, Cy Young and MVP awards and looks at the chances that Charlie Montoyo and Hyun-Jin Ryu will be coming away with some hardware. Not sure if y'all want her in-depth Jake Cronenworth analysis, but dang it, y'all are gonna get it!
