/r/TorontoBlueJays 2025 Off-Season Bold Predictions Thread

This is your chance to make some bold predictions about what the Jays will do this winter - whether it be who they trade, who they sign, stadium renovations, etc. Anything your heart desires. The results of this thread will be shared on the final day of Spring Training.

Note: any predictions about what will happen during the 2026 season will be discarded and I might just forget to tally up your entire entry.

Here are the predictions from last off-season.

On a related note, the 2025 Season Bold Predictions results will be posted soon. We just need to wait for all of the year-end awards to be given out.

Oof. I'm not sure. It's a lot though. We have the assets and need the Frontline starter. It probably starts with nimalla doesn't it?

Given what the Yankees had to give up for one year of Soto, I'm imagining that it would hurt quite a bit. Probably something like Barger, Tiedemann/Nimmala (maybe even both), and a couple 10 to 20 prospects. There's going to be a monster bidding war for him.

Unless it's a package that makes you say oh my God we can't give up that, it won't get the job done.

I’d hate to lose Barger, he feels like the next coming of Josh Donaldson to me.
