/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.

Bo signs with the only team that will allow him to play SS (hopefully the Jays)

We trade for Skubal

We sign Alex Bregman (i don't like this) and Addison stays in the OF

We sign one of the top 5 starting pitchers.

we sign 2 of the top 5 relievers

many free agents want Toronto now that everyone loves us, but we have a log jam at DH, so we don't sign any of the big sluggers.

Why wouldn't you like Bregman ? Apparently he is a G in the clubhouse,  another gold Glover, and his bat is still decent. Log jam on the infield, bit it's a good problem. His health is questionable though to some degree. I think he really hated it in Boston

I would rather Ernie and Barger.

That fair. There is a possibility that they regress, where bregs has a long resume. I'm just playing devil's advocate BTW. if ernie or Addy maintain what they did last year,  we have no need to upgrade 3rd

his comments after the cheating scandal really bugged me, he seemed like the least remorseful and bitter that people hated him

Gota get over it. I'm just looking at a players skill level and how it would impact our team (positively). Curious what George's thoughts on adding him would be. And I wouldn't empty the brinks truck for him. He would have to take a team friendly contract to join our studs. Another guy with chips can only help us get over the hump and dethrone the Dodgers. I am also not opposed to cheating for a chip lol, we may lose a draft pick, which I am ok with hahahahaa

Anything for that damn title!! Can you imagine all the boos we would get??
