They could play at the Meadowlands and be the Jersey Jays for one season.

I'm having trouble understanding why Toronto is OK as the eastern hub for the NHL, but not OK for MLB?

Cause Canada is racist obviously.

They'll play all but 2 home series in Pittsburgh.

They'll be the home team in DC next week and in September in Yankee stadium.

They're really getting screwed over, IMO.

Not anymore.

Toronto Blue Jays denied permission to play in Pittsburgh's PNC Park for 2020 MLB season

he Pennsylvania Department of Health announced Wednesday that they will not allow the Blue Jays to play their home games at PNC Park in Pittsburgh this season.
Pennsylvania secretary of health Dr. Rachel Levine said in a statement that "To add travelers to this region for any reason, including for professional sports events, risks residents, visitors and members of both teams." The Blue Jays, of course, have also been denied permission to play in Toronto, so their top two choices have been blocked just ahead of Opening Day. ESPN's Jeff Passan hears that the Jays are looking into playing their home games at Camden Yards in Baltimore. There's also the possibility, per ESPN's Buster Olney, that they will travel to the city of each scheduled opponent and play as the home team.

According to Ken Rosenthal and Dan Connolly of The Athletic, the Blue Jays are now discussing using Camden Yards for most of their home games.
The plan has been approved by the Orioles, and Major League Baseball would certainly welcome it, but the Blue Jays still need the go-ahead from the Maryland governor's office. They thought they had a plan in place to stage games at Pittsburgh's PNC Park, but the Pennsylvania state government denied the proposal in the end. Buffalo remains the likely fallback if the Camden Yards idea is not approved.

ESPN reports: “It’s a go if the Blue Jays are willing to take on the Chris Davis contract”

Hearing that Buffalo is not ready for MLB caliber baseball. Bad lighting and not a great clubhouse situation.

What a shitshow

Buffalo appears to be a done deal.

Sahlem Field is arguably the best minor league park in all baseball. However, it is not up to major league standards. You do what you have to do.

The Tatanka Blue Jays.....

From what I've read, it was built in the hopes of attracting an expansion team, so I was surprised to read about the lighting issues.

Considering the relative proximity to Toronto, it really is the best spot.

But man, that team has been jerked around like nobody's business.

Here's an article with a few more details:

It's official: Blue Jays to play home games in Buffalo this season

The stadium itself was patterned after the one in Kansas City, sans the top deck. Presumably if they ever got a major league team they would have upgraded the lighting when they expanded the stadium.

Interesting. I'm glad they found a home. For selfish reasons I'll never wish them well, but it is an exciting team with so much incredible young talent.

Dan Connolly of The Athletic reports that the Blue Jays will play their home games this season in Buffalo.
The report has been confirmed by various other outlets. The Jays looked into playing in Pittsburgh and Baltimore after they were denied permission to play in Toronto, but ultimately they will have to settle for their Triple-A stadium. Connolly's colleague, Ken Rosenthal, says the Blue Jays are working on lighting issues at Sahlen Field and hope it's ready for their second home series of the season versus the Phillies. Their July 29-30 home series against the Nationals will be played at Nationals Park.
