Sun? Grass? Leaves? Warmth? …Baseball?

Remember those? They’re all pretty good, no? And they’re on the way back, we swear, and so are the Blue Jays. We know because we just put the finishing touches on the Sportsnet magazine Blue Jays Special, and we’re pretty sure that’s an official sign that winter’s over.

This is a critical year for the Jays, and fans are anxious to get it started. They’re not alone, either. Aaron Sanchez leads a young crop of Jays pitchers nervously awaiting the first pitch, too. We spent time with Sanchez in the Florida condo he shares with injury-hit ace Marcus Stroman, getting to the bottom of what it’s like to be a young pitcher with a promising career ahead of you and the weight of a franchise on your shoulders. What we found out: It’s actually pretty awesome.

Check out that story and more—including in-depth features on Josh Donaldson, Michael Saunders and Russell Martin; and the stats that explain what went wrong last season and what to look forward to this year—all in Sportsnet’s 2015 Blue Jays special.

From the heart of the order to the bottom of the bullpen, we’ve got the team covered. Get yours today.
