The Blue Jays were one of the kings of the rumor mill this winter, seemingly linked to just about every notable name on the free agent market.

The Toronto Blue Jays are starting to have some injuries pile up as spring training continues onward.

The Blue Jays bullpen is in disarray. On Thursday, the team traded Yimi García to the Seattle Mariners. Two days later, they traded Nate Pearson to the Chicago Cubs.
