Vladimir Guerrero Jr. continues to be one of the Toronto Blue Jays' biggest offensive concerns amid an extended midseason slump, hitting a new low during Toronto's recent series loss to the rival New York Yankees.
Fresh off a World Series appearance last fall, the Toronto Blue Jays find themselves in a vastly different reality this season. Sitting at 61-65 and buried at the bottom of the American League East standings, Toronto’s rapid decline has been spearheaded by a baffling power outage f...
Have you noticed something recently during Saturdays at Fenway Park? After Wilyer Abreu hit a thunderous homer to right field to send the Fenway Faithful into a tizzy….while wearing the yellow City Connect jerseys…..the Red Sox have gone back to basics during their Saturday home games. July 25 against the Blue Jays? Home whites. August […]
The Jays are 10-6 so far this month. The batters are hitting .235/.298/.335, averaging 3.7 runs per game. Hot Alejandro Kirk: Played in 14 games, starting 12.

PHILADELPHIA — When Christopher Sanchez took the mound in early June against the Toronto Blue Jays, he had the enviable […]
The Blue Jays outrighted right-hander Lazaro Estrada to Triple-A Buffalo, the club announced. Toronto designated him for assignment over the weekend when they needed a 40-man roster spot to bring up Daz Cameron. Estrada is a 27-year-old who has played an up-and-down middle relief role for the last couple seasons. He has a near-7.00 earned run average […]
Ryan Weathers carried on his improved form this weekend by dominating the Blue Jays lineup in what turned out to be a Yankees win in extras. Weathers has found superior results by adjusting his arsenal to minimize the damage he allows and maximize his potential. And those changes are so meaningful that they warrant multiple […]
It has been a while since we’ve had an off-day. The Jays haven’t had an off-day since July 30th. At that time we were 5.5 games back of the Wild Card spot, with six teams to jump. Now they are just one game back, with two teams to jump over. That turnaround in 17 games […]

Ben Rice had gone 0-for-11 over his previous three games when the Yankees got to the 10th inning in Toronto. […]
Today marks Dave Lemanczyk’s 76th birthday. Dave was a starting pitcher for the Blue Jays during their inaugural season. He started the second game in franchise history, recording the team’s first-ever loss. He was a solid pitcher, selected from the Detroit Tigers in the Expansion Draft. The draft itself was something of a sucker’s bet; […]

From both an odds and an on-field product standpoint, there are six teams that look like a lock to reach the postseason here in mid-August.
The Blue Jays followed Arizona State lefty Cole Carlon all spring and were ecstatic that he fell to them at the 39th overall pick.

Twelve. That’s the number of Los Angeles Dodgers pitchers who are off the mound due to injury. The rotation was supposed to be one of the franchise’s biggest strengths. Instead, they are hitting one roadblock after the other. And Justin Wrobleski just became the latest addition to their injury woes. But one analyst pointed out […]

The Yankees beat the Blue Jays 4-3 as Ryan Weathers...
The Sunday afternoon finale between the Yankees and Blue Jays included more spectacular pitching from a Yankee starter, inadequate hitting from the lineup, and unwanted late drama. Ryan Weathers continued to be nigh-untouchable force, allowing one run over 7.1 innings. The Yankee offense in turn continued to scuffle, grabbing a pair of runs in the […]
Seven teams are fighting for the final spot in the AL Wild Card standings. The Tigers have an edge over the Guardians and Blue Jays for now, but that could change quickly.
This is game #126. And it is an early game, but I’m out for a while. I might be back before game time, but I might not, so this is the GameThread if I don’t get back in time. I played singles tennis this morning, I don’t do that very often, but won. It is […]
Two of the three least productive offenses in baseball walk into a ballpark. One of these offenses has the backing of the league’s best pitching staff. Who wins? The answer may shock you! In a style once again reminiscent of the 2025 ALDS, the Yankees have allowed the Blue Jays to dance circles around them […]

Saturday day was a day that ends in “Y,” so that mean the Yankees’ offense didn’t produce much. Just like Friday, the Blue Jays held the fake Bronx Bombers to just one run, scoring only a bit more than that themselves to take the victory. The Yankees themselves put in a frustrating performance, but could […]
The Mariners have claimed right-hander Troy Watson off waivers from the Tigers. Watson fills the empty spot on Seattle’s 40-man roster. He has been assigned to the Triple-A Tacoma Rainiers. Watson, 29, was a late-round draft pick by the Blue Jays in 2018. Toronto sent him to Detroit for cash considerations during the 2024 campaign, […]
With the Philadelphia Phillies facing the Toronto Blue Jays in the series finale on Sunday afternoon, the game featured a relieving moment for star slugger Kyle Schwarber. As Schwarber has been in an unfortunate home run drought with the Phillies, that was snapped thanks to Blue Jays pitcher Shane Bieber. In the bottom of the […]
