Their front office put the pedal to the metal and hasn't let up. Sadly, though, for a third straight year, they pursued the top free agent available, only to be outbid&#xA0;by a bigger-market&#xA0;foe. This time...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">3070</guid><pubDate>Mon, 23 Feb 2026 11:52:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>The Blue Jays Are Forming a Queue at Shortstop</title><link>https://jayscentre.com/news-rumors/toronto-blue-jays/shortstop-prospects-arjun-nimmala-jojo-parker/</link><description>The Toronto Blue Jays start this spring with some clarity at shortstop and unusual luxury in their succession plan. In the wake of Bo Bichette&#x2019;s free agent departure this offseason, the Jays opted for Plan B (though really, it seemed like their plan all along) of having the sure-handed Andr&#xE9;s Gi...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">3067</guid><pubDate>Sun, 22 Feb 2026 11:57:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Blue Jays 2026 Pitching Projections: Where the Forecasts Agree, and Where They Don't</title><link>https://jayscentre.com/news-rumors/toronto-blue-jays/pitching-projections-agree-disagree/</link><description>Spring training games start this weekend. I invite you to take a moment and think back to what the Blue Jays' roster looked like a year ago today. Some of the main characters are still around, but not even a trip to the World Series was enough to make this team immune to the winds of offseason c...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">3068</guid><pubDate>Sat, 21 Feb 2026 13:35:05 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>How To Watch the Blue Jays This Spring Training</title><link>https://jayscentre.com/news-rumors/toronto-blue-jays/how-to-watch-spring-training-games/</link><description>The Toronto Blue Jays' preseason is just around the corner, as players have reported to training camp and begun full workouts during the past week.

It&#x2019;s a truly wonderful time on the baseball calendar. Every team comes into camp at 0-0, and with that comes optimism that this could be the year that everything clicks. That, at the end of a long 162-game season, you could be the team le...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">3060</guid><pubDate>Fri, 20 Feb 2026 11:54:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Here's Why the Blue Jays Claimed Ben Cowles</title><link>https://jayscentre.com/news-rumors/toronto-blue-jays/ben-cowles-waiver-claim/</link><description>When I saw the news that the Blue Jays had claimed&#xA0;Ben Cowles, my first thought was, "Why?"




	Then I thought about it some more, and I realized it actually made quite a bit of sense. Cowles isn't a super flashy acquisition, but Toronto needed him more than you might think.

Ernie Clement makes highlight-reel plays all over the infield. He was arguably the best utility player in baseball last season.&#xA0;Addison Barger is the first player in MLB history to play at least 25 games at third base and right field in each of his first...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">3059</guid><pubDate>Tue, 17 Feb 2026 11:53:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Leo Jim&#xE9;nez Is Out of Options.

Acquired as a teenager out of Panama in international amateur free agency, Jim&#xE9;nez has been in the organization for over six years. Despite missing time due to injury and the COVID year, Jim&#xE9;nez steadily climbed his way up...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">3056</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 Feb 2026 11:50:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>In Jes&#xFA;s S&#xE1;nchez, Blue Jays Get Low-Risk, High-Reward Bat</title><link>https://jayscentre.com/news-rumors/toronto-blue-jays/jesus-sanchez-low-risk-high-reward-bat/</link><description>After the disappointing news that Anthony Santander would be sidelined for five to six months following surgery on his left shoulder, Blue Jays GM Ross Atkins quieted the masses by declaring the team was "not significantly involved" in the market for additions to the outfield.

The Jays announced this morning that they have traded for Jes&#xFA;s S&#xE1;nchez, sending Joey Loperfido back to the Houston Astros in return.&#xA0;

Gloves still pop, conditioning runs still hum, but everything feels a little heavier. The Blue Jays received plenty of reasons for such silences just a day before camp officially opened for pitchers and catchers.

The offense finished the season in the top five in most offensive categories while relying on a contact-heavy approach at the plate.
