The Toronto Blue Jays need to prioritize signing Bo Bichette to a new contract after the winter meetings this offseason.

In exchange for Chase Lee, the Blue Jays are sending one of their minor league prospects to the Detroit Tigers.

Shapiro will now need to keep Toronto on the cutting edge and charging toward a return to the World Series once again.

Right-hander Chase Lee was acquired by the Blue Jays from the Tigers on Friday for minor league left-hander Johan Simon.

It has felt like the Toronto Blue Jays have been overlooked for a few accolades during this time of year when accolades are handed out to baseball's best.

The Toronto Blue Jays have agreed to a new five-year contract with president and CEO Mark Shapiro. The team announced the agreement on Friday.

On Friday, the Toronto Blue Jays acquired Lee from the Detroit Tigers in exchange for pitcher Johan Simon. On July 30, 2024, the Texas Rangers traded Lee and pitcher Joseph Montalvo to the Tigers for pitcher Andrew Chafin.

Reliever Chase Lee posted a 4.10 ERA with nine walks and 36 strikeouts across 37⅓ innings in 32 games for the Detroit Tigers in the 2025 season.

General manager Ross Atkins already signed Dylan Cease to a massive seven-year deal, and the Blue Jays have been linked to just about every significant free agent. It has even been speculated that they could land both a reunion with Bo Bichette and bring in Kyle Tucker as well.
