DUNEDIN, Fla. -- You can never have enough starting pitching. Just over 12 hours before Blue Jays pitchers and catchers officially report for Spring Training, we can see why. Shane Bieber's ramp-up will be delayed this spring, manager John Schneider announced on Tuesday, the result of some right forearm inflammation

DUNEDIN, Fla. -- Some of the Blue Jays’ roster decisions are already taking care of themselves, but not in the ways they’d hoped. With the news that Anthony Santander will undergo left shoulder surgery and Shane Bieber will be delayed ramping up, the Blue Jays’ 26-man roster is already shifting

DUNEDIN, Fla. -- Anthony Santander’s comeback season has already been grounded. Santander will undergo left labral surgery on Wednesday with Dr. Keith Meister and is expected to miss five to six months, manager John Schneider announced, another brutal blow after injuries and poor performance wiped out the first year of

DUNEDIN, Fla. -- One last time, before the crunching of cleats on concrete welcomes a new season Wednesday morning in Dunedin, Fla., we need to talk about the play at the plate. Tuesday morning, 130 miles south in Fort Myers, Isiah Kiner-Falefa had to talk about it. Fresh off the

TORONTO -- Right around this time each year, when suitcases are dragged out of storage and weather apps are changed to Dunedin, Fla., the reality of a new baseball season arrives rather suddenly. The offseason is over, and while the Blue Jays’ additions may not be, it’s time to shift

TORONTO -- In May 1981, Buck Martinez felt like his days in baseball were at the end of the line. Just designated for assignment by the Brewers and faced with filling an afternoon in May for the first time in his adult life, he went for a run. When he

TORONTO -- The wait is almost over, even if the wait was a little shorter this winter. The Blue Jays’ run to the 2025 World Series left them with an offseason one month shorter than their typical ones, but they got to work quickly, overhauling their roster for another. With

TORONTO -- Finally, the greatest moment in Blue Jays history will be immortalized with a statue outside Rogers Centre. Joe Carter’s Game 6 walk-off home run to win the 1993 World Series still stands as one of the finest moments this game has ever seen, giving the Blue Jays back-to-back

TORONTO -- The Blue Jays’ offseason lives back down in reality now that Kyle Tucker has joined the Dodgers and Bo Bichette is a Met. Cody Bellinger still represents the long-term outfield upgrade the Blue Jays could use, but beyond Bellinger, the free-agent market gets cloudy if you look at

TORONTO -- For a decade, Bo Bichette represented the future in Toronto. Now, so suddenly, he’s a memory. Bichette has agreed to a three-year, $126 million deal with the Mets, another short-term, big-money deal that lands one day after Kyle Tucker signed a four-year, $240 million deal with the Dodgers.

TORONTO -- The rich just keep getting richer. Kyle Tucker, the jewel of this free-agent class, is taking his talents to Los Angeles to join the mighty Dodgers. The reported four-year, $240 million deal is another massive financial commitment by the free-spending Dodgers. While the Blue Jays remained involved in

Ryan Weathers wasn’t born yet when his father, David, won the 1996 World Series with the Yankees, but he’s heard the stories. Earlier this week, Weathers had just wrapped up a bullpen and sat in the sauna before crashing onto his couch when the phone rang. It was Peter Bendix,

TORONTO -- With each spring’s arrival, we meet a new stage in the rise of Ernie Clement, who has dragged himself out of baseball obscurity. A story like Clement’s, rare as they are, is why MLB front offices just keep swinging, keep hoping, keep scraping up players on Minor League

TORONTO -- What next? The Blue Jays have dared a fan base to dream again. Even after landing Dylan Cease, Kazuma Okamoto, Cody Ponce and Tyler Rogers, this offseason still feels alive. There’s a sense of momentum that’s carried over from their run to the World Series in 2025, and

TORONTO -- If we learned one thing about Kazuma Okamoto on Tuesday, it’s that the man can draw a crowd. Packed inside the Blue Jays’ press conference room, it looked like Vladimir Guerrero Jr. had signed his extension again as cameras spilled off their usual perch at the back of

TORONTO -- The Blue Jays signed Japanese third-baseman Kazuma Okamoto to a four-year contract, continuing Toronto’s aggressive offseason as it reloads for another run at the World Series. The deal is worth $60 million with a $5 million signing bonus, and it does not include opt-outs. One of the top

TORONTO -- No one in baseball will be happier to see the sun rise on a new season than Anthony Santander. The Blue Jays’ biggest offseason splash from a year ago was barely a factor in 2025. It was a lost year, bogged down by injuries, poor performance and all

TORONTO -- Nearly three years ago, Ricky Tiedemann threw one pitch that no one could stop talking about. They still talk about it, actually. In a Spring Training game in late February 2023, a 20-year-old Tiedemann blew a 99 mph fastball past Javier Báez for strike three. Baseball games in
