The Toronto Blue Jays are not far away from making a serious playoff run. Who do they need to bring in to make that happen in 2022?
The Toronto Blue Jays were projected to be contenders as recently as a few seasons ago. No one thought that the projection would be the 2021 season. In a powerhouse division that includes the Tampa Bay Rays, New York Yankees, and the Boston Red Sox, the Jays more than held their own. Toronto went 91-71 and even held first place in the AL East at times.
The 2021 MLB season is set to end on October 3, and there is still much to be decided in the league’s playoff races.
Nowadays, strategy cards are commonplace for every player on a field in Major League Baseball. Fielders have them to show where they must shift for specific players. However, no players have more important cards than the pitchers and catchers, which show their set of signs, as well as how to pitch to batters.
Toronto has put themselves back into the conversation of obtaining one of the two wild card positions in the American League. The Blue Jays represent just one of the great stories in baseball to emerge out of the early goings of September.
The Blue Jays’ farm system has been shaken up and rearranged. Let’s dive into the new five faces who make up the future of baseball in Toronto.
Alex Cora’s return to the Boston Red Sox’ dugout has taken a familiar twist, amid the team’s lack of activity at this year’s trade deadline.
The Blue Jays and Diamondbacks finalized a deal headlined by reliever Joakim Soria ahead of Friday’s trade deadline. In exchange for Soria, Toronto will send a pair of players to be named later back to Arizona.
The Toronto Blue Jays returned home to Rogers Centre after an 18-month stay in Buffalo, N.Y. Upon settling back in at their true home stadium, the Jays wasted no time in facilitating a blockbuster trade.
The one piece of the puzzle that can use some improvement is the bullpen, specifically at closer. Per beat writer for the Washington Post Jesse Dougherty, the Jays have acquired Brad Hand from the Nationals.
Let’s break down what the Blue Jays must do at the upcoming trade deadline in order to succeed down the stretch this season.
The 2021 MLB Trade Deadline is set for July 30, a date that’s much different than what it was in 2020. It’s a return to normalcy. Still, the sharp increase in players on the IL compared to past years is bound to add a fascinating twist to the equation.
