Blue Jays Happy Hour ·

2026/01/06

The Big Oak Era has begun! The Blue Jays have finally made a big splash in the Far East, signing the first ever position player to be posted by the 22-time Japan Series champion Yomiuri Giants, Kazuma Okamoto.A player of great intrigue for many reasons—including how he'll fit with the Blue Jays defensively, whether his improved strikeout rate in 2025 was for real (it jumped from a still-excellent 15.9% down to an unbelievable 11.3%), how well his ability will translate overall, and how much of a

It was only just 365 days ago that Jays fans were despairing, wondering why Ross Atkins still had a job after a nine year tenure that had culminated in a dreadful 2024, still smarting from Juan Soto's decision to sign with the Mets, trying to understand the Andrés Giménez acquisition, questioning whether Vladimir Guerrero Jr. could be signed to a contract

Shapiro & Rogers & Lee & Plassmeyer & Bruihl (& Bo)

2025/12/18

We're deep into transaction season, and the Blue Jays have had a few of them for us since our last episode—some big, some small. This week we take a look at all of them, giving the big ones—the addition of reliever Tyler Rogers on a three-year deal, and the new five-year extension for club president Mark Shapiro—the bulk of our attention, naturally.Plus we look at a potential future transaction: a reunion with shortstop Bo Bichette, who is now reportedly indicating to suitors that he's willing to

Winter Meetings Roundup

Blue Jays Happy Hour ·

2025/12/12

MLB's annual Winter Meetings took place this week, but if you're a fan of the Toronto Blue Jays you can be forgiven if you missed it—or, at the very least, didn't quite get what all the hype was about. Partly, that's because the Jays didn't have to sweat their way through the festivities distractedly chasing ghosts while Plan B types fly off the board like they often do. And partly it's because their biggest move of the week—outside of some Ross Atkins unforced PR errors—was their surprising

The Cody Ponce Emergency Podcast

Blue Jays Happy Hour ·

2025/12/03

I'm seeing double here. Fourteen potential Jays starting pitchers??!?OK, OK, the Jays may not quite have quite that many rotation options—Eric Lauer is pretty clearly slated for the bullpen at this point, at the very least—but with the additions of Dylan Cease and, now, Cody Ponce, they clearly have six. (Gausman, Yesavage, Bieber, and Berríos, of course, being the others). And because of that glut, Ponce's arrival is not your typical three-year, $30 million signing of the reigning KBO MVP.And this

Cease the Day!

Blue Jays Happy Hour ·

2025/11/27

The puns have yet to cease, and why would they just yet? Because we're still very much in the afterglow of the Toronto Blue Jays handing out a $210 million contract to one of the absolute most durable, highest-strikeout starting pitchers in the sport. And they may not be done big game hunting, either.What else does will Dylan Cease bring over the next seven seasons? That's... that's an interesting question.

As in Jeff Passan of ESPN, who is as credible as they come, and who this week left open all the possibilities for an incredible winter, telling us that the Jays “want a left-handed complement to Vladimir Guerrero Jr.,” that they have “no plans to slow down,” that “they are considered the favourite by other executives to land (Kyle) Tucker,” and that they “still could conceivably sign Tucker and

The job isn't done yet, but the Blue Jays have been getting it done, as they bounced back from an 18 inning loss in Game Three to win twice in Los Angeles and, behind another Trey Yesavage performance for the ages, head back to Toronto needing to win just one of the next two in order to become World Series champions.
