The Kazuma Okamoto signing was a clear success. Could that encourage the Blue Jays to add another Japanese star this offseason?

You don’t have to look far to find something that went wrong with the 2026 Toronto Blue Jays. Bryan Jaeger gave us his list of five things, and honestly, I admire his restraint. That list could sprawl if we let it. As the season went on and various people in my life checked in on my mental health af...

The 2026 Blue Jays season certainly didn’t go the way anyone expected. Coming off a high from the World Series win the year prior, dealing with several injuries to key players throughout the roster, and with underperformance from the Blue Jays superstars, you could say the season was a little bit of...

It was a disappointing season for sure, but the 2026 Toronto team had enough bright spots worth celebrating to give us more than "There’s always next year.”

The Blue Jays will be watching the postseason festivities from afar in 2026, but that isn't any fault of the pitching staff. They were extremely clutch on many occasions throughout the year, led on most nights by Louis Varland, whose +4.7 WPA placed third among all pitchers in baseball. Despite cons...

The Blue Jays' 2026 season, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s struggles, offensive shortcomings, and offseason plans are discussed, along with highlights like Kazuma Okamoto, the catching duo, and bullpen performance.

It wasn't an ideal season for Toronto Blue Jays starting pitchers, with one notable exception.

The Blue Jays spent last winter believing in the team that nearly won the World Series. The greater mistake may have been continuing to believe after the team sputtered out of the gate. Toronto finished 79-83, a rough reversal for a club that spent aggressively over the winter and entered the s...

The 2026 season was filled with memorable moments, from huge wins to games that took fans on an absolute roller coaster. We’re looking back at some of the season’s most notable games and the moments that made them worth remembering.

Who were the top performers in Triple-A postseason action?

It was undoubtedly a year to forget for most of the position players on this roster. The monster innings, big hits with runners in scoring position, and ferocious comebacks that the fanbase had grown accustomed to over the previous year all vanished to the detriment of the Blue Jays' chances of defe...

The Astros and White Sox each tabbed Johnny Wholestaff for Game 1 of the American League Wild Card Series Tuesday, setting off some debate and collective laments on social media. Get used to it, though. This fall will belong to hard throwers on short assignments. Blame ABS.

These were the Jays' most pivotal pitching/defensive plays of the year by Statcast's WPA model.

This may feel a little like a personal attack, but what’s really going on under the hood?

The 2026 Toronto Blue Jays may have discovered the difference between loyalty and sentimentality the hard way.

It’s been a disappointing season for the Toronto Blue Jays, who had high hopes after a World Series trip last season. They were two outs away from winning their first championship since 1993, but Miguel Rojas ruined those dreams. That success makes this season's struggles look even worse, as the Jay...

These were the Jays' most pivotal offensive plays of the year by Statcast's WPA model.

Through the rise and the fall of it all, it's over.

Scherzer takes the mound for the Blue Jays against the Reds at Rogers Centre.

For the last time this season, here I am making the game thread (Brock will be on desk tomorrow). Thanks for all of your support during our second season! I hope you enjoyed the coverage we had on the Blue Jays -- shout out to Leo for once again leading our team of writers -- even if things ult...

Welcome to Shape of the Blue Jays, my column where I dig into Statcast numbers to analyze recent pitch shape and swing shape trends for Toronto Blue Jays players and discuss how they have impacted their performance. Click here to read the last edition. All stats entering September 24, 2026, unl...

Two eliminated teams, one final series before a lockout. Let's just try to enjoy this one as much as we can. Who knows when we'll see this team play next?

The problem with success is that it is often taken for granted. It took more than thirty years for the Jays to return to the World Series, yet fans expected another return in 2026. Even without the injuries and underperformance, I'm not sure the 2026 Blue Jays had enough firepower to battle for...

Vladimir Guerrero's quote put Owen and Jesse in a pretzel.

Here is some of the latest Blue Jays analysis from around the internet. Focus is on Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s contract and performance, the team's playoff elimination, and the effectiveness of their hitting philosophy and trade-deadline acquisitions. Vlad Delivers an Early Parting Gift (The Batflip)...

An analytical postmortem on the 2026 season.

Heading into 2026, outfielder Brett Bateman was much easier to envision as a useful major league role player than as the kind of hitter who might eventually lead off for a team fighting for a playoff spot. With Pete Crow-Armstrong making a case to be a legend for the Chicago Cubs, Bateman was stuck...

The Blue Jays have officially been eliminated from postseason contention. Here is a near-final report card for their season.

Scherzer starts for the Blue Jays against Bassitt and the Orioles at Camden Yards.

Every game from here on out is *actually* a must-win for the Blue Jays, but even winning every game won't be enough. Here's what has to happen for the Blue Jays to make the playoffs.

And with this, we put the 2026 minor-league regular season to bed.

Here is some of the latest Blue Jays analysis from around the internet. Focus is on the team's struggles with a broken rotation, underperforming offense, and roster management, along with Dylan Cease's injury concerns and potential Rule 5 draft targets. Here's why a long winning streak has eluded...

The rookie centre fielder arrived with little fanfare, but strong defence, plate discipline and surprising production have made him one of Toronto's most valuable late-season additions.

The Buffalo Bisons finished their season, Anthony Santander continued his rehab, and Yohendrick Piñango ended his campaign on a high note.

There are really two answers to the question of whether a .500 season would constitute success for the Toronto Blue Jays. The first is simple. No. This was not supposed to be an 81-win baseball team. At the same time, there are so many reasons that it could have been much worse. Toronto entered...
