Although stolen base numbers have varied widely over the history of baseball, there is a current nostalgia for the wild days of Rickey Henderson, Lou Brock, and Tim Raines. There is also value in steali...2255Wed, 22 Jan 2025 11:54:02 +0000https://jayscentre.com/news-rumors/toronto-blue-jays/blue-jays-fans-deserve-a-vladimir-guerrero-jr-extension-r2253/I’m a baseball romantic first and foremost, and what’s more romantic than the player who perfectly embodies your franchise and decides to stay put for his entire career? The Blue Jays have not yet had one of those. Our best and longest-serving players have gone to and/or come from elsewhere.

On Monday afternoon, Jon Morosi of MLB.com reported that Santander is signing with Toronto. According to Ari Alexander, the deal is for five years, but Santander will have an opt-out after the third year.

Straw shines in center field, but will he be able to wake up his bat for an offense that needs some pep? This move overall is interesting and seems sensible enough for the Toron...2251Sun, 19 Jan 2025 15:06:00 +0000https://jayscentre.com/news-rumors/toronto-blue-jays/in-a-frustrating-step-forward-blue-jays-finish-second-for-star-free-agent-r2249/Results are in for the Roki Sasaki Sweepstakes, and the incoming pitcher from Japan shocked no one by announcing that he will play for the Dodgers in 2025. The long offseason gave us plenty of time for rumours that falsely raised the hopes of Blue Jays fans everywhere.

That's not what I'm saying. The Blue Jays should do everything necessary to sign Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to an extension. However, when you look at the Toronto roster, you see a team without a DH. You see a team with one reliable power bat in...2247Sat, 18 Jan 2025 11:53:00 +0000https://jayscentre.com/news-rumors/toronto-blue-jays/blue-jays-trade-ptbnl-for-myles-straw-a-pile-of-money-and-a-different-pile-of-money-r2248/On Friday morning, just three hours after word spread that the Padres were no longer a possible destination for Roki Saski, the Blue Jays swung a move that could only be interpreted as a bid to bolster their chances of landing the ace.
