The Yankees kept pace in a crowded American League playoff picture Thursday, felling the Orioles 5-3 on the strength of an eighth-inning rally to take their third straight. It was a mixed bag for their competition, with an intra-division matchup between the first place Rays and a Blue Jays squad still very much in the […]
The Toronto Blue Jays may have stumbled into one of baseball’s most underrated and impressive relievers this season, and he’s been an incredible part of Toronto’s very strong bullpen. His name is Spencer Miles, and he was on absolutely nobody’s radar coming into the 2026 season. Now, he’s transformed into a bona fide dominant reliever […]

It always seems like the whenever the Toronto Blue Jays make the trek to One Tropicana Drive, some kind of miscue results in the Rays winning a close ballgame due to the result of it. The same case can be made Tuesday night. In a 2-1 ballgame in the fourth inning, courtesy to a Yandy […]
As he goes, so do the Blue Jays.
Plus, if you're looking for folks to root for, a catcher in the Blue Jays organization that's more than half a haiku.

Jays 6 Rays 7 So, the game changed on two fly balls to left. In the bottom of the first, with one out, Junior Caminero hit a fly down the left field line, Jesús Sánchez was going into foul territory to get it, then it landed fair. Very weird, because a ball going foul will […]
We might as well make it two in a row against the Rays. Getting 10 runs again would be a good thing too. Half a game out of a wild card spot seems unbelievable considering where we were at the start of the month. Vlad is going to play a rehab game tomorrow in Dunedin. […]
The Jays made a roster move: I’m thinking that Waldron clears waivers and stays with the team, but we won’t know that for a few days. He’s had a rough time in 4 outings with the Jays, putting up a 10.38 ERA in 4.1 innings, with 7 hits, 2 walks and 3 strikeouts. I think, […]
The Blue Jays announced that they have selected the contract of left-hander Brendan Cellucci. Right-hander Matt Waldron has been designated for assignment as the corresponding move. Waldron, 29, was just claimed off waivers from the Padres two weeks ago. He tossed 4 1/3 innings for the Jays, allowing five earned runs. The Jays have decided […]
The Blue Jays moved on from a 29-year-old after only four appearances
Today marks the 58th birthday of former Blue Jays pitcher Woody Williams. I’ll admit, I often confuse Woody Williams with Chris Carpenter. Both left the Blue Jays and eventually landed in St. Louis—Williams with a stop in San Diego along the way. They each found greater success with the Cardinals (though Carpenter excelled even more), […]
Carlos Rodón looked about as good as you could have expected in his first big league game back from an almost two-month injury absence, limiting the Orioles to a run on two hits and two walks in four innings. Trent Grisham continued his recent red-hot streak with a homer and a two-run single to drive […]
Heading into the Toronto Blue Jays series, the Nationals were 54-52 and only one game back of a Wild Card spot. They were coming off a thrilling series win against a fellow playoff hopeful in the D-Backs. However, things have come off the rails since then with trades, injuries and position changes causing the season […]
The Yankees finally managed to score more than one run with a 4-3 extra innings victory in the series finale over the Blue Jays to avoid the sweep. In scoring just two runs in regulation, they were in danger of making 11 games out of 16 in which they scored two or fewer runs. That […]
Good morning Birdland, Those two days where the Orioles held a playoff spot were pretty cool, huh? We will remember them fondly. The team has dropped back to one game out of the final wild card spot after their 3-1 loss to the Yankees on Tuesday night. The Rangers, Twins, Blue Jays, and Guardians all […]
Blue Jays 10 Rays 5 A win at Tropicana. I always think I’m more likely to find a $20 bill on the ground than to see the Jays win at that House of Horrors. The Jays, very democratically, scored two runs in each of five innings: We had 17 hits (let me double check, maybe […]
The Rays lost another blowout tonight, one in their starter could not complete four innings and the subsequent relievers didn’t offer much relief. Nick Martinez….I don’t know, I love the guy for so many reasons, but after his amazing first couple of months, it seems like every three, maybe even two outings is a clunker. […]
Last weekend, the Yankees’ and Blue Jays’ hitters tried their best to help their respective aces gain some ground in the AL Cy Young race. Neither side had much luck. On Saturday, Cam Schlittler held Toronto to one run in 5 1/3 innings, striking out seven. The next day, it was Dylan Cease’s turn to dominate. […]
I hate games at Tropicana, but here we are. There was a little bit of Jays news. Lenyn Sosa was taken off the 60-day DL outrighted to Buffalo. Maybe Trey will be back this season: And Spencer Arrighetti might be able to make it back this year. Today’s Lineups BLUE JAYS RAYS Brett Bateman – […]
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is having the worst year of his career, with a meager seven home runs and a .693 […]
Jays make a roster decision amid surge up the AL standings.
The Blue Jays announced that infielder Lenyn Sosa has cleared outright waivers and been assigned to Triple-A Buffalo. He had been on the major league 60-day injured list but the club put him on waivers instead of adding him back to the active roster. Sosa, 26, was acquired from the White Sox in April. He […]
So far this month, the Jays are 10-6 with a 2.87 ERA, easily the best month our pitchers have had this year. Hot Dylan Cease: 3 starts, 0-0, 2.45 ERA. In 18.1 innings, batters hit .158/.236/.274, with 2 home runs, 8 walks and 27 strikeouts. Also opponents stole 14 bases in those 18.1, with 2 […]
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 […]
