Latest news and updates about the Blue Jays
4:25pm: The Jays have now officially announced Lorenzen’s signing. Right-hander Chad Dallas has been optioned to Triple-A Buffalo to open an active roster spot. In a corresponding 40-man move, outfielder Jonatan Clase has been transferred to the 60-day injured list. Clase was placed on the 10-day IL July 21 due to plantar fasciitis. He’s now […]
The Toronto Blue Jays have added some much-needed pitching depth, signing veteran right-hander and former All-Star Michael Lorenzen to a […]
The Toronto Blue Jays’ pitching experience has been a roller coaster of a ride this season. After making it to Game 7 of the World Series, the team added Dylan Cease to their starting rotation. The ex-San Diego Padres star is one of the best starters in baseball. Cease was joined by Kevin Gausman, Trey […] The post Blue Jays agree to contract with former All-Star pitcher amid playoff push appeared first on ClutchPoints .
One is the number. What number, you may ask? One win that the Dodgers look for before leaving Atlanta? One-run losses as the theme of this series against the Braves? One unequivocally poor performance in a season’s worth of games for Chris Sale, who in all but one of his 23 starts this season has […]
Happy Thursday; we’ve almost made it to the end of another week. I’ve been trying to hold off on posting this until the expected roster move to send Chad Dallas back down to Buffalo. A question I have: I’m not sure how you would go about studying this, but teams are surprisingly successful on ‘bullpen […]
Amid a disappointing season that is likely to end without a playoff berth, at least Toronto Blue Jays fans have their Loonie Dogs. The Blue Jays announced earli
34 Years Ago Today On August 27, 1992, the Blue Jays acquired David Cone from the Mets in a trade. This was the first of two times the Jays traded for Cone. In exchange, Jeff Kent and Ryan Thompson were sent to New York. At the time of the trade, the Jays held a 72-55 […]
Good morning friends! The M’s dropped the series finale in a sleepy 6-0 loss to the Phillies yesterday that saw the offense unable to even muster a threat against Jesús Luzardo. It’s a Mariners off-day today as the team heads across the border to Toronto for a weekend set with the Blue Jays. In Mariners […]
A Nathan Lukes 3-run homer in the 4th inning, snapped the Royals 9-game winning streak last night, as the Royals were blanked by the Toronto bullpen game. Jac Caglianone returned last night (and struggled) but he has become a feared power hitter this season. In 2025, Jac Caglianone was searching. For results, for answers, for […]
Royals 0 Blue Jays 3 I don’t like bullpen days, but teams are very successful on bullpen days. And the Jays have been especially successful on bullpen days. I don’t like them because we go through so many pitchers. It messes up the pen for the next few days. Today we used seven pitchers. Seven: […]
Kansas City had only a few opportunities to score and did not manage to cash in on any of them while the Blue Jays got one ball over the wall. It was enough to get a 3-0 victory and tie the series. The Royals 9-game win streak is at an end. The Toronto bullpen took […]
29 games to go. I was thinking that going 18-11 would, likely, get the Jays into the playoffs. That’s a pretty high bar to clear. It does mean there can be more losses than we’d like. The Jays say that Spencer Miles will open tonight’s game. They also say he won’t throw more than 30 […]
Game two in Toronto has the lineups set. The Royals will be going for their 10th win in a row while the Blue Jays continue clinging to hope of sneaking into the wildcard. It will be Randy Dobnak on the mound for the Royals. He has thus far put up a sparkling ERA despite mediocre […]
The Toronto Blue Jays had a chance to make things interesting against the Kansas City Royals in their latest game, but it got worse before it could get even better. With the score 2-1 at one point, the Blue Jays just needed to get a tying run, but the offense struggled to get anything going […] The post John Schneider fed up with Blue Jays playing stupid baseball after latest dumb loss appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Today marks David Price’s 41st birthday. Although Price was with the Blue Jays for just three months, those months were incredibly exciting. The Blue Jays acquired him on July 30th, 2015, when the team was 52-51, tied for second place and six games behind the Yankees. After Price joined, the Jays went 41-18 and finished […]
Every baseball fan remembers the year their favorite team put it all together and brought home a World Series championship. Equally as memorable, but much more painful, are the memories of their team collapsing down the stretch and losing a playoff berth. This is the homestretch of the MLB season, and several teams are jockeying […] The post 10 MLB Teams With the Worst Collapses in History appeared first on Just Baseball .
“Can we just play baseball? We’re humans. Can we just be judged by humans? Do we really need to disrupt the game? I think humans are defined by humans,” Max Scherzer said after his first appearance on the mound in Major League Baseball’s automated ball-strike system era back in February last year. Yet, when Royals’ […] The post “F–king S–t I’m Dealing With”: Max Scherzer Erupts Over Umpire’s Missed Call That Blue Jays Had to Challenge appeared first on EssentiallySports .
Blue Jays reliever Yimi García underwent surgery to address thoracic outlet syndrome last week, manager John Schneider told reporters (relayed by Shi Davidi of Sportsnet). That’ll officially end his season. This was the likeliest outcome when the Jays announced García’s TOS diagnosis a few weeks ago. Schneider suggested at the time that he was probably down […]
Royals 5 Blue Jays 3 Well, that was a frustrating game. As I said in the thread, we weren’t going to run the table. If they had to win every game left to get into the playoffs, it wasn’t going to happen. They need to win most of their games, but not all of them. […]
The wins keep on rolling: tonight, the Kansas City Royals walked into the home of the Toronto Blue Jays and won 5-3 with a wild ninth inning that featured a pair of crucial defensive masterpieces. In the first inning, both the Royals and Jays traded blows. Carter Jensen immediately singled against Blue Jays starter Max […]
The second Freddie Freeman caught a perfectly placed double-play ball to take down the Toronto Blue Jays in the 11th inning of the 2025 World Series, the pressure began to mount for the proverbial three-peat. One of the most elusive feats in all of sports, which hasn’t been accomplished since the New York Yankees over […] The post Max Muncy reveals the Dodgers’ message in 2026, and it’s not to ‘three-peat’ appeared first on ClutchPoints .
“You either die a hero or you live long enough to become the villain.” That’s one of the most famous quotes from 2008’s superhero film The Dark Knight. It’s also a quote that describes one Max Scherzer. Mad Max’s multi-color gaze has witnessed a lot of batters doing damage to his pitches recently, and he […]
The first of three against the Royals. Game #133. The Royals are on an eight-game win streak and are still last in the AL Central. And the Jays are down another starting pitcher. Thankfully Jameson Taillon should be back next week. But, this week, relievers are going to throw a lot of innings. Guys like […]
There are a whole mess of injury updates: And they are saying that tomorrow will be a bullpen day. Spencer Arrighetti will start Thursday (my mom would do Alphagetti for us on Thurdays, if my dad wasn’t going to be home for supper)(no one cares Tom), and they are going to need some innings out […]
The Blue Jays had a deep post-season run, coming so close to winning a championship. But they stumbled out of the gate in their attempt to run it back, losing 12 of 15 in April, a hole that they struggled to emerge from. They have suffered some injuries, but most of their decline has come […]
