"The Major League Baseball season has been over for more than a week. Falling short in Game 7, the Toronto Blue Jays will surely go big in free agency. They need a pitcher, another bat, and a handful of relievers. More importantly, they need to re-sign Bo Bichette for the cornerstone shortstop (or second baseman) to remain a Blue Jay for life."
"Making the World Series wasn't unexpected if you paid attention to the Blue Jays all season long. During a west coast road trip, the Jays dropped to 16-20, but by the end of May, the season started to feel special. That continued in June, and in July, it was time to go for it before the trade deadline. The Blue Jays did just that ahead of the Jul. 31 deadline."
"With Yimi García and Nick Sandlin out for the season, the Blue Jays needed to shore up their bullpen. They did just that on Jul. 29, as they sent Watts-Brown to the Orioles for Domínguez . The scouting report on Domínguez is that the stuff is great, but he struggles with command. After the trade, he finished with a 3.00 ERA and 3.37 FIP in 21 innings pitched."
The Toronto Blue Jays reached the World Series after overcoming an early-season slump and a decisive July push. The club lost Game 7 and will pursue free agency upgrades, prioritizing re-signing Bo Bichette and addressing needs for a starter, another hitter, and multiple relievers. Ahead of the July 31 deadline, the team traded prospects to acquire Seranthony Domínguez, Shane Bieber, Brandon Valenzuela, Ty France and Louis Varland. Seranthony Domínguez produced a 3.00 ERA and 3.37 FIP in 21 innings with high velocity and a splitter but exhibited inconsistent command and strike-throwing issues.
