With the trade deadline looming on the horizon and the future of the roster in doubt, every player's performance might have had far-reaching ramifications for the future of the club. With one eye on the month of July and one looking a...3556Wed, 05 Aug 2026 10:51:03 +0000https://jayscentre.com/news-rumors/toronto-blue-jays/trade-deadline-in-review/The Blue Jays were active leading up to the trade deadline, giving us some of the moves we expected and at least one we didn't. Kevin Gausman and Daulton Varsho are gone, but impending free agents Shane Bieber, George Springer, and Max Scherzer are still around.

But while the Blue Jays might be following through with their plan to trade their rentals, they aren't giving up hope of competing in 2026.  This morning, ESPN...3553Mon, 03 Aug 2026 13:49:00 +0000https://jayscentre.com/news-rumors/toronto-blue-jays/breaking-kevin-gausman-traded-to-chicago-cubs-r3552/The Toronto Blue Jays have made their first major deadline move, sending veteran starter Kevin Gausman to the Chicago Cubs in exchange for outfielder Brett Bateman and infielder Ty Southisene.

The Blue Jays seem likely to add to their farm sys...3549Sun, 02 Aug 2026 10:56:02 +0000https://jayscentre.com/news-rumors/toronto-blue-jays/shane-bieber-trade-destinations-yankees-red-sox-rangers-braves-r3548/Earlier this week, I wrote about some possible landing spots for Kevin Gausman. His teammate Shane Bieber is a whole different beast of a trade chip. Both pitchers can lead a rotation when they're at their best. Gausman, however, is as low-risk as they come. Whichever team trades for him (a...3548Sat, 01 Aug 2026 17:45:52 +0000https://jayscentre.com/news-rumors/toronto-blue-jays/analysis-bieber-springer-gausman/Welcome to Shape of the Blue Jays, my column where I dig into Statcast numbers to analyze recent pitch shape and swing shape trends for Toronto Blue Jays players and discuss how they have impacted their performance.

Perhaps either Tarik Skubal or Mason Miller will be that first big trade.
