It's been a long time since they've developed a homegrown starter that has lasted more than a handful of years in MLB before switching teams or roles, and that w...5784Fri, 30 Jan 2026 11:54:01 +0000https://diamondcentric.net/news-rumors/jays-centre/zips-projected-standings-have-blue-jays-as-favourites-in-tight-al-east-r5772/Another day, another treat for all of us projection freaks.

Fresh off signing a five-year, $92.5 million contract (with deferrals and an opt-out sprinkled in), he was supposed to provide the Blue Jays with some much-needed power as a middle-of-the-order bat. He was coming off a season in which he hit...5734Wed, 28 Jan 2026 11:54:01 +0000https://diamondcentric.net/news-rumors/jays-centre/more-details-on-bonuses-for-the-blue-jays-international-signings-r5731/Last week, the Blue Jays announced the signings of 27 international free agents, including catcher Juan Caricote and outfielder Michael Mesa.
