Premier League Transfer Tracker: Every deal from the summer window

It's been a strange season for the 2025 Toronto Blue Jays. Six weeks ago, fans wondered when head...

It's been a strange season for the 2025 Toronto Blue Jays. Six weeks ago, fans wondered when heads would roll in the front office. Now, those same fans are wondering if the same front office will take a big swing at the trade deadline.Stranger still is that neither position was unreasonable. In late May, the Jays were 25-27, beaten 13-0 in the finale of a three-game sweep by Tampa Bay, and in last place in the AL East. The team looked grimly familiar: buttery soft offensively, and not good enough in other areas to make up for their lack of pop.The big additions, meanwhile, were a flop. Anthony Santander was below replacement level at the plate, and Max Scherzer had looked very much like a 40-year-old starter, which is to say he was hurt. If Rogers-owned MLSE had just fired Brendan Shanahan as president of the Toronto Maple Leafs for underperformance, what was keeping Mark Shapiro and Ross Atkins around?<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>And then the Blue Jays went 29-12, and from worst to first in the division. Just under 70 games remain in the season - plenty of time for the narrative to flip again - as Toronto heads into a weekend series with the Athletics. But on the eve of the All-Star break, and just a couple of weeks from the trade deadline, it's fair to wonder just what Shapiro and Atkins make of all this.Will this team push its metaphorical chips to the middle of the table, having somewhat stumbled into an unexpected big stack? Or will the Shapiro-Atkins duo exercise the caution that's been a hallmark of their time in Toronto?That last description might seem unfair: The Jays have a top-five payroll in MLB and tried to give big deals to Shohei Ohtani and Juan Soto in the past two offseasons, but they've talked about prudence and sustainability since pretty much the day they arrived in Toronto. Shapiro infamously chided former general manager Alex Anthopoulos for weakening the farm system with his aggressive trades for David Price and Troy Tulowitzki in 2015 - deals that helped deliver Toronto's last AL East crown.<figure class="article-segment--image"><img src="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/793742/cropped_GettyImages-482860938.jpg?ts=1752152711" srcset="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/793742/w220xh124_GettyImages-482860938.jpg?ts=1752152711 220w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/793742/w320xh180_GettyImages-482860938.jpg?ts=1752152711 320w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/793742/w640xh360_GettyImages-482860938.jpg?ts=1752152711 640w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/793742/w768xh432_GettyImages-482860938.jpg?ts=1752152711 768w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/793742/w1080xh607_GettyImages-482860938.jpg?ts=1752152711 1080w"><figcaption class="article-segment--image-caption"> Tom Szczerbowski / Getty Images Sport / Getty</figcaption></figure>But those are just the types of deals that the Toronto front office will have to consider in the coming weeks. If one thing should be painfully clear to the Blue Jays executives by now, it's that opportunities for postseason success can be fleeting. Toronto's last three trips to the playoffs netted exactly zero wins. If this team is going to make it that far - and the recent hot streak suggests that they should - the goal should be to bring in the kind of reinforcements that could make a difference in a series against a battle-tested team like the New York Yankees or Houston Astros.As much as the Blue Jays have become a fun team again, driven by back-from-the-dead years from players throughout their lineup, it's also the same group that, just a couple of months ago, looked like it might be at the end of its competitive window. If the Jays were to suffer another quick playoff exit, they'd be far from a sure bet to find themselves back in a division-leading position next July.Still, it's easy to imagine a scenario in which the front office is content to make minor moves at the trade deadline. Three regular starters - Santander, Daulton Varsho and Andrés Giménez - are on the injured list, and there will be a bit of a roster logjam when they return, given the strong play of guys like Addison Barger and Nathan Lukes in their absence. The prices for deadline pickups might be quite steep, given the number of big-market, big-dollar teams that will be looking to improve.But this isn't a time for prudence or caution. After the highs of 2015-16, and the teams that made baseball relevant in Toronto again, the Blue Jays have been a franchise built on promise followed by disappointment.The 2025 version, the bounce-back Blue Jays, have suddenly upended the expected order of things. Guys like George Springer say they're playing for each other now, instead of for themselves, which sounds good, but makes you wonder what they were doing last season.Whatever the reason, the Jays are leading the division in July for the first time in a decade. These chances don't come around too often. Shapiro and Atkins might as well embrace it.Scott Stinson is a contributing writer for theScore.

Viewed in isolation, there's a way to make the events of the past few days for the Toronto Maple ...

Viewed in isolation, there's a way to make the events of the past few days for the Toronto Maple Leafs seem palatable.Rather than lose a star player to free agency for nothing, they recouped something from the Vegas Golden Knights for Mitch Marner in a sign-and-trade deal. And not just the kind of salary ballast or roster flotsam that is normally part of such a move, but a real guy: Nic Roy, a depth center with actual NHL playoff experience.The Leafs were also finally forced into making a major change. After another playoff collapse, and after trying to trade Marner at the deadline, it was plainly evident that both parties were ready for a divorce. No one even pretended that a fat Marner extension with his hometown team was a serious possibility.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>The Core Four was doomed, and so it has come to pass.But that era ending with a whimper instead of a bang doesn't make it any less absurd in the big picture.Under the guidance of recently departed team president Brendan Shanahan, the Leafs spent the better part of 10 years placing a massive bet on their skilled forwards. It didn't matter how many times or after how many playoff exits it was pointed out that a huge amount of precious salary-cap space had been allotted to those four forwards; Toronto's front office always responded by expressing faith in its high-end talent.Whether it was Shanahan, former general manager Kyle Dubas, or Dubas replacement Brad Treliving, someone was always there with a reason to stick to the plan. To believe in the talent. To run it back.A close first-round series loss to the Bruins or Lightning? Hey, could have gone either way. And that was a tough opponent.An ugly first-round ouster by the Blue Jackets? It's a pandemic. A loss the following year to the Canadiens? John Tavares was hurt, and they were beaten by a goalie on a heater. A collapse in the second round two seasons ago after finally managing to win a series? The new GM needed time to get to know his players before making any sudden changes.That last rationalization was the most misguided of all. Treliving, hired in a rush after Shanahan and Dubas split, didn't want to make any franchise-altering decisions in his early days in Toronto. So he sat on his hands, during which time Marner's no-trade clause kicked in for the final two years of his contract.<figure class="article-segment--image"><img src="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/786379/cropped_GettyImages-2172014422.jpg?ts=1747651991" srcset="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/786379/w220xh124_GettyImages-2172014422.jpg?ts=1747651991 220w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/786379/w320xh180_GettyImages-2172014422.jpg?ts=1747651991 320w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/786379/w640xh360_GettyImages-2172014422.jpg?ts=1747651991 640w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/786379/w768xh432_GettyImages-2172014422.jpg?ts=1747651991 768w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/786379/w1080xh607_GettyImages-2172014422.jpg?ts=1747651991 1080w"><figcaption class="article-segment--image-caption"> Nick Lachance / Getty Images</figcaption></figure>Marner said Treliving gave the Core Four his blessing shortly after taking the job."Brad came in and defended us all, really," Marner said around that time. "It meant a lot to all of us (for him) to come in and do that."Whoops.But because Treliving took the path of least resistance - or Shanahan didn't instruct his new hire to make big changes to a roster that had already authored a long and painful streak of disappointing playoff exits - the Maple Leafs have been ushered into a new reality. The team that was forever reluctant to blow it up has now had things blown up for them. Instead of four elite forwards, the Leafs now have three, plus a pile of salary-cap space with no obvious short-term purpose. Instead of entering next season wondering if they can again slug it out with the Panthers and Lightning at the top of the Atlantic Division, they should probably be thinking more about holding off the Canadiens and Senators while they try to replace Marner's production.The end of the Core Four might still be for the best, of course. Plenty of evidence suggests something was missing from that group, as the Leafs' stars - Marner certainly among them - repeatedly failed to show up in the biggest games. It's possible that the money that would have gone to a Marner extension will be better spent on the kind of depth pieces who play such important roles for teams that put together long postseason runs.But Marner's departure remains a humiliating outcome for a franchise that considers itself a premier NHL destination. A local kid fleeing Canada's biggest market for an expansion franchise in the desert? Ouch. The Maple Leafs ran it back too many times, and now they're left to pick up the pieces.Scott Stinson is a contributing writer for theScore.

His great puck skills and good shot give him a high offensive ceiling.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>His aggressiveness sometimes tends to put him out of position in his own end, but his length and feet give him a high floor as a defender.Smith recently committed to Penn State after playing for the WHL's Tri-City Americans the past three years.
