It has been a fantastic stretch of late for the Toronto Blue Jays, who have established themselves as the team to beat in the American League East. Despite a bit of a sluggish start to the season, the Blue Jays have been playing excellent baseball of late and could very well win their division. At the trade deadline, Toronto had a couple of needs that they were looking to address, and the front office seemingly did a nice job.

8/02/25	Blue Jays Front Office Graded on Recent Trade Decisions During Crucial Stretch. The Toronto Blue Jays made some decent moves as the trade deadline was cut off.

At first glance, their biggest move was the acquisition of 2x CY Young winner, Shane Bieber, from the Cleveland Guardians. This could potentially be a huge win for the Blue Jays, but the hiccup is that he hasn't thrown a pitch in the majors since April of last season.
