The Yankees managed to salvage a win and avoid a sweep by the Guardians at Yankee Stadium on the back of strong solid pitching from Carlos Rodón, shutdown bullpen work, and some clutch hitting by Ryan McMahon. With the win, the Yankees climb to within a half-game of the Rays, who had the day off. […]
Does it feel like you just read the preview for a series with the Toronto Blue Jays? That’s because you did. These two teams just played each other last weekend, although then it was in Baltimore. This weekend it is in Toronto. The two teams split that series. The Blue Jays took the first two […]
This question is very clearly prompted by last night’s loss, where the Blue Jays (surprisingly?) did not BABIP over .500… but they got pretty close. There was a game the Braves lost to the Red Sox recently — the 8-0 shellacking, where the Red Sox had a .400 BABIP, and the Braves had a .208 […]
The Minnesota Twins on Thursday signed right-handed pitcher Austin Voth to a minor league contract and assigned him to Triple-A St. Paul. Voth became a free agent on Tuesday after being outrighted by the Toronto Blue Jays. In two MLB relief appearances for Toronto this season, Voth threw six innings and allowed six earned runs […]

The New York Mets’ nightmare 2026 season continues. They might be coming off a 7-1 win over the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday, but they are still in dead last in the NL East with a 27-35 record. This season has not even come close to going according to plan for the Mets, with injury woes […]

Blue Jay 7 Braves 2 I figured the Chris Sale start would be the tough one to win, but wrong again. The Jays scored: We had 16 hits. 16. That’s more than we’ve had in a week. And we were 7 for 18 with RISP. How many times does a team get 18 runners into […]
The Toronto Blue Jays bring a healthier Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to the diamond now. Guerrero left his fans scared after leaving the Pittsburgh Pirates game on May 24. But he proved his healthy state by smacking a double, then trolling Ronald Acuna Jr. of the Atlanta Braves. Guerrero smacked his fifth inning rip toward the […]

The Twins signed right-hander Austin Voth to a minor league contract. The move was announced by their Triple-A affiliate in St. Paul, as he’ll start tonight’s game for the Saints. Voth elected free agency on Tuesday after being outrighted by the Blue Jays. The 33-year-old had two very brief stops on Toronto’s big league roster. He […]
As the Braves go for a sweep of Toronto Thursday night, it doesn’t seem like a very fair pitching matchup on paper. Atlanta is starting its ace, Chris Sale. Toronto is using an opener, Mason Fluherty, and then likely giving Chad Dallas his major league debut after he was promoted to the major league roster […]
Braves shortstop Ha-Seong Kim is back out of the lineup for Thursday night’s series finale against the Toronto Blue Jays after a one-hit, one-RBI performance in Wednesday’s 7-3 win. It’ll be the fifth time in the last seven games Kim has been out of the lineup. While Atlanta has largely ridden Jorge Mateo’s heat wave […]
The Blue Jays needed to clear a 40-man roster spot in order to bring up rookie pitcher Chad Dallas, so a bullpen shakeup was inevitable prior to their June 4 game in Atlanta. The shakeup cost a 30-year-old journeyman who…
There will be no rubber match this time for the Braves, with the series already in hand entering Thursday’s home finale against the Toronto Blue Jays. Instead, Atlanta is going for its first sweep since early May. And it’ll be doing it with its ace on the mound. Chris Sale (8-3, 2.01 ERA) gets the […]
The Atlanta Braves have continued their hot streak of late, recently picking up a second straight win over the Toronto Blue Jays. The Braves sit with the best record in the MLB at 42-20, but that doesn’t mean that the team won’t look to get better at the upcoming MLB trade deadline. The hottest name […]

37 Years Ago Today This is one of my all-time favorite games, played in 1989. But then any game where we beat the Red Sox is a favorite game. The Blue Jays defeated the Red Sox 13-11 in 12 innings. After six innings, the Red Sox led 10-0. Alex Sanchez started for the Jays. He […]
When and where will Lewis rejoin the Twins' lineup? Plus, trading Simeon Woods Richardson back to the Blue Jays five years later.
Justin Topa is getting another chance, and this time it is in Toronto.
The Toronto Blue Jays signed the veteran right-hander to a minor league contract, with Topa assigned to Triple-A Buffalo.
The 35-year-old was released by the Minnesota Twins in late May after posting an 8.05 ERA, a 2.00 WHIP, and 27 hits allowed across 19 innings, the latest difficult chapter in a career that has been defined by injury setbacks and improbable returns. Justin Topa, released by MIN last month, has signed ...
The Toronto Blue Jays have signed right-handed reliever Justin Topa to a minor-league contract, according to the MiLB.com transaction log, with the veteran immediately assigned to Triple-A Buffalo. The 35-year-old was released by the Minnesota Twins on May 23 after a recording an 8.05 ERA across 23 appearances this season, allowing 27 hits and 11 […]

Blue Jays 3 Braves 7 We got more than 2 runs!!!! They should have scored a few runs in the first inning. It started single (Nathan Lukes), single (Yohendrick Piñango) and walk (Vladimir Guerrero). The walk included Vlad challenging a called strike, which, the review showed, was easily a strike. I hate blowing a challenge […]
It was back in 2019 that the Toronto Blue Jays first acquired top pitching prospect Simeon Woods Richardson. He was a Top 3 prospect for the club when they dealt him to the Minnesota Twins in 2021 in the Jose Berrios trade. Now, Toronto has re-acquired Woods Richardson, days after he was designated for assignment by the Twins after going 0-7 through 10 starts with a 7.74 ERA and 1.89 WHIP with 47.2 innings pitched. The #BlueJays are acquiring Simeon Woods Richardson from the ...
The Toronto Blue Jays and Minnesota Twins reportedly agreed to a trade on Wednesday. The Blue Jays are acquiring starting pitcher Simeon Woods Richardson, according to Mitch Bannon of The Athletic. Minnesota is receiving cash considerations in return. Woods Richardson was once a former top prospect with the Blue Jays. He was acquired by the […]

The Blue Jays announced they’ve acquired right-hander Simeon Woods Richardson from the Twins for cash considerations. Toronto transferred lefty reliever Joe Mantiply from the 15-day to the 60-day injured list to open a 40-man roster spot. Mantiply recently underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left knee. It’s the second time the Toronto front office has acquired Woods […]
Game two of the series with the Braves. More scoring would be nice today. The team says that Chad Dallas is up with the team, in case they need an extra arm tomorrow. I suppose that depends on how deep Patrick Corbin can go in tonight’s game. The cool thing about the rule that you […]
The stage is set for game two in Truist Park, where the Braves’ offense is looking to support Grant Holmes in a steady outing against the Toronto Blue Jays. First pitch is set for 7:15 p.m. EDT. Check back with us for a recap of tonight’s turn of events. Game Notes Preview Lineup
