HOUSTON -- The Blue Jays struck one last time before the bell rang at the Trade Deadline, dealing reliever Jeff Hoffman to the Twins for what looks like their highest-upside package of the Deadline, shortly before a 3-1 win over the Astros at Daikin Park. That package was headlined by

HOUSTON -- Everybody can exhale now. After six trades over a hectic 24 hours, the Blue Jays have finally made it through a complicated Trade Deadline.

HOUSTON -- The Blue Jays sent Daulton Varsho across the diamond here in Houston to join the Astros, in a deal that netted them 26-year-old starter Spencer Arrighetti. Arrighetti is another long-term addition for their rotation after landing José Soriano from the Angels in a big, splashy deal Monday morning.

HOUSTON -- Just 12 hours after trading rotation cornerstone Kevin Gausman, the Blue Jays have found his replacement, acquiring right-hander José Soriano from the Angels. The Blue Jays will be sending the Angels a package headlined by No. 2 prospect Arjun Nimmala, their 2023 first-rounder who’s in the middle of

HOUSTON -- With the rest of the trade market waiting for the Blue Jays to sell, they’ve turned around and made another addition. Hours after adding José Soriano from the Angels for a package headlined by No. 2 prospect Arjun Nimmala, Toronto announced it has agreed to terms on another

TORONTO — The Blue Jays finally ripped the bandage off late Sunday, agreeing to a deal to send Kevin Gausman to the Cubs for a pair of prospects in infielder Ty Southisene and outfielder Brett Bateman.

The Cubs traded for Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman on Sunday night, with Toronto getting two Minor Leaguers, shortstop Ty Southisene (Blue Jays' No. 17 prospect) and outfielder Brett Bateman (No. 20).

TORONTO -- It begins. The Blue Jays agreed to terms on a trade that will send Kevin Gausman to the Cubs for prospects Ty Southisene (previously Cubs' No. 13 prospect) and Brett Bateman (No. 21). Chicago gets: RHP Kevin Gausman Toronto gets: INF Ty Southisene (Blue Jays' No. 17 prospect),

TORONTO -- With one trade down and more to come, Sunday’s 5-1 loss to the Cardinals at Rogers Centre felt like background noise. This even featured the rarest sight of all, four late runs (one earned) allowed by Louis Varland in the ninth. The next 24 hours are all about

TORONTO -- The Blue Jays have made their first trade ahead of Monday’s 6 p.m. ET Deadline, acquiring starter Jameson Taillon from the Cubs.

TORONTO -- The Trade Deadline overshadows everything these days. The Blue Jays are doing everything they can to stay afloat in the AL Wild Card race, but the realities of Monday’s 6 p.m. ET Deadline don’t leave much room. Saturday’s 5-1 win over the Cardinals was another good day, but

TORONTO -- In November 2021, Kevin Gausman and his wife, Taylor, were on vacation at a wellness resort, but he kept breaking the rules. Guests were not supposed to have their cell phones on them throughout the day, but Gausman was one of the hottest free agents in baseball. He

TORONTO -- John Schneider does not have the luxury of daydreaming about the Trade Deadline. That’s for all of us to do. Sure, the Blue Jays’ manager is part of these big-picture talks with general manager Ross Atkins and the front office, but once he walks out of that office,

TORONTO -- The Blue Jays look like a good, old-fashioned seller ahead of Monday’s Trade Deadline, but perhaps it’s better to frame them as being “open for business." The coming days line up for the Blue Jays to be short-term sellers, but also long-term buyers, getting a jump start on

TORONTO -- These days, Blue Jays fans are left looking to the future, whether they want to or not. There’s a lot to like, though, in a farm system that’s grown stronger at the top and done a much better job of developing pitchers in recent years. Cole Carlon, the

BOSTON -- We’ve reached that uncomfortable spot on the calendar when the Trade Deadline casts a shadow on every game. The Blue Jays lost to the Red Sox on Sunday, 6-1, to drop two of three at Fenway Park, but the story of the day is how each of these

BOSTON -- This has been a long time coming for Ricky Tiedemann, the Blue Jays’ No. 10 prospect who we’ve barely heard from in nearly two years. It had been 706 days between Tiedemann’s last Minor League appearance in 2024 and his first rehab appearance this season, back on June

BOSTON -- Jesús Sánchez is back in game action down in Single-A Dunedin, putting him on track to potentially return to the Blue Jays by next weekend. After going 1-for-3 in a Florida Complex League game on Thursday, this was Sánchez’s first game back with a full-season affiliate as he

BOSTON -- Dylan Cease, standing on the mound with his hands reaching for the sky after throwing 120 pitches, didn’t look like a man on a 48-57 team. That’s why this matters. Cease’s talent is only matched by his stubbornness on these special days, creating an unstoppable force. In Saturday’s

BOSTON -- The Blue Jays still have some flashes in them, especially when Dylan Cease pitches like that. Saturday’s 6-0 win over the Red Sox was clean and simple, which we haven’t seen enough of from this 2026 team. The win moves the Blue Jays to 48-57.

BOSTON -- Just over a year ago, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. stood in this same rugged hallway at Fenway Park. It was the beginning of the greatest year of his baseball life. He’d just signed a $500 million contract that morning. He didn’t know it yet, but a World Series run

BOSTON -- Even when the Blue Jays find a way to make a game of it, the American League Wild Card race just keeps drifting away from them. Friday night’s 6-4 loss to the Red Sox at Fenway Park dropped the Blue Jays (47-57) to 6 1/2 games back of

BOSTON -- With one big swing on Friday night at Fenway Park, Kazuma Okamoto broke Shohei Ohtani’s rookie record for the most home runs by a Japanese-born player, with 23. The Statcast-projected 408-foot shot to straightaway center finally got the Blue Jays on the board in the seventh inning in

BOSTON -- Blue Jays outfielder Addison Barger's long, frustrating season is now a lost season. Barger will undergo right elbow surgery on Monday, which could require a full Tommy John procedure. If that’s the case, Barger’s rehab process is estimated around nine months, which would stretch well into the 2027
