Max Scherzer's recent signing with the Toronto Blue Jays has sparked a lot of conversation about the team's potential for success this season. Scherzer himself has made it clear that he’s not just looking to play, but to win, which raises some intriguing questions about the Blue Jays' current trajectory.

Despite Scherzer's star power and the addition of other players like Anthony Santander, projections suggest that the Blue Jays might still be on the outside looking in when it comes to the postseason. PECOTA and FanGraphs have them finishing with records that could leave them in the middle of the pack in the competitive AL East. This leads us to ponder: Is Scherzer's presence enough to elevate the team beyond these projections, or are they destined for another what could have been season?

With key players like Bo Bichette and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. facing free agency at the end of the year, the stakes are high. If the Blue Jays fail to make a significant impact this season, could it lead to a major overhaul of the roster? What do you think the Blue Jays need to do to turn their fortunes around?

Additionally, how do you feel about the concept of being all in without landing the big names? Is it possible for a team to succeed with a mix of solid but not superstar talent?

Let’s hear your thoughts! What are your bold predictions for the Blue Jays this season? Will Scherzer be the catalyst they need, or are they in for another disappointing year?
