3 dream Silver Slugger pairings Blue Jays fans wish they could have seen (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Baseball history is filled with dream lineup combinations that never had a chance to become reality. What if David Ortiz and Wade Boggs had shared the middle of Boston’s order? What if Aaron Judge had hit behind Don Mattingly in New York? How many home runs could the Dodgers have launched with Shohei Ohtani and Mike Piazza at their peaks? The commonality between all of them? They were all Louisville Silver Slugger winners during their careers. For the second straight year, FanSided will have a p
Ross Atkins leaves door open for Blue Jays to upgrade over Ernie Clement ahead of 2027 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ernie Clement has earned the trust of the Toronto Blue Jays with his versatility, contact skills and ability to provide value in several different roles. What he has not earned is a guarantee that second base belongs to him again in 2027. General manager Ross Atkins spoke during his year-end media availability on Wednesday afternoon (Sept. 30). He praised Clement’s ability to impact the lineup, but he was also carefully about saying the Blue Jays are guaranteed to start 2027 with Clement as the

It won't take the Toronto Blue Jays very long to do a full post-mortem review of what went wrong in 2026. Plain and simple, their offence never gave a battered pitching staff a chance to succeed. Toronto finished last in the majors with 152 home runs and 648 runs scored one year after reaching the World Series. The lineup rarely built sustained pressure, and the biggest stars underperformed. General manager Ross Atkins did not try to soften that assessment during the team’s end-of-year press con
Blue Jays have “no doubt” Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will rediscover his superstar form (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For most of the season, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. looked like a shell of the hitter the Toronto Blue Jays had planned to build their offence around. The production disappeared for long stretches, and the at-bats became painful to watch. The organization came out today (Wednesday, Sept. 30) and were adamant that the face of the franchise wasn’t hiding an injury. According to Blue Jays’ General Manager Ross Atkins, Guerrero just “lost the rhythm” that makes his swing so dangerous. That evolved into a
7 numbers that defined the Blue Jays’ disappointing 2026 season (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Toronto Blue Jays entered their 50th season hoping to build on a run to the 2025 World Series. Instead, it was a year that became one of the most disappointing in recent memory. Even as they designed an entire season-long campaign around the celebration of the franchise’s 50th season, there was no sugar coating how bad year 50 was. They went from first to worst, winning the AL East in 2025 and finishing in the basement in 2026. Injuries overwhelmed the pitching staff, the lineup’s biggest st
