Toronto Blue Jays

The Toronto Blue Jays have significantly strengthened their starting rotation during the offseason, positioning it as one of the best in baseball for 2026. Key additions like Dylan Cease and Cody Ponce replace underperforming pitchers from 2025, while depth options provide resilience against injuries. The status of José Berríos remains a pivotal question as spring training approaches.

The Toronto Blue Jays' offseason has returned to reality after missing out on Kyle Tucker and Bo Bichette. With Cody Bellinger as a potential outfield upgrade, the team still needs to address roster gaps before spring training. The front office's proactive approach has strengthened the rotation, but the outfield and pitching depth require attention.

Updating Monday's report on the Phillies entering the Bo Bichette sweepstakes, Toronto's additional offseason moves—including Cody Ponce (3 years, $30M) and Tyler Rogers—pile pressure on the Blue Jays to retain the 27-year-old All-Star, while Shane Bieber opts in for 2026.

The Toronto Blue Jays have officially signed Japanese star Kazuma Okamoto to a four-year, $60 million contract, bolstering their infield with a proven power hitter. The 29-year-old, a six-time All-Star in Japan, joins Toronto after a standout season with the Yomiuri Giants. To accommodate the addition, the team designated reliever Paxton Schultz for assignment.

The Toronto Blue Jays are reportedly set to bolster their roster by signing at least one of the top free agents available this offseason. ESPN's Jeff Passan predicts the team will land Kyle Tucker, Bo Bichette, or Alex Bregman following their World Series run in 2025. Interest from other contenders like the Boston Red Sox adds intrigue to the pursuits.

After a disappointing 2025 season marred by injuries, Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Anthony Santander is determined to reclaim his form in 2026. The 31-year-old slugger, signed to a five-year, $92.5 million contract, struggled with a .175 batting average and just six home runs in 54 games last year. Manager John Schneider remains confident in Santander's potential to contribute significantly.
