An overview of which Blue Jays have zero minor league options heading into 2026

"The Toronto Blue Jays are putting in the work this offseason to get ready for the new campaign, starting with the signing of Dylan Cease to the largest free agent deal in franchise history. The addition of Cease helps fill a hole that was left in the rotation following the departures of Chris Bassitt and Max Scherzer, and brings some strikeout power to a rotation that is arguably one of the top in the American League."

"Ross Atkins and co. likely still have some moves up their sleeves over the next couple of months, mainly revolving around Bo Bichette and Kyle Tucker in present time. Whether or not either player dons a Jays uniform for the foreseeable future is to be determined, but given the current roster, regardless of whether they add significant players this winter, there will be some roster battles brewing come Spring Training."

"The Jays have quite a few players set for the 2026 roster. While there is still no clear second baseman, shortstop, or right fielder given the free agent front and the current carousel of players that can play multiple positions, such as Ernie Clement, Addison Barger, and Andres Gimenez, there are internal options available if the front office does strike out this winter on multiple fronts. That doesn't seem likely given how aggressive the Jays brass are out of the gate, but never say never."

The Blue Jays signed Dylan Cease to the largest free-agent deal in franchise history, filling the rotation hole left by Chris Bassitt and Max Scherzer and adding strikeout power to a top American League rotation. Ross Atkins and the front office likely continue to pursue moves, with Bo Bichette and Kyle Tucker central to offseason considerations. Several roster spots remain unsettled, including second base, shortstop, and right field, but versatile players such as Ernie Clement, Addison Barger, and Andres Gimenez provide internal options. Multiple players hold minor-league options, creating potential spring-training roster battles depending on further acquisitions.
