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 […]

MLB players from multiple teams weighed in on the owners' proposed salary cap, and their message was consistent: They don't want one.
I always say it is hardest to blog about a middling team. A bad team, lots to talk about. A good team, lots to talk about. One in the middle? I think the Jays will get better. I think getting Alejandro Kirk back will help a lot. I think getting, you know, five actual starting […]
After frustratingly exiting the mound with seven hits and two earned runs across 4 2/3 innings pitched against Cincinnati, Holmes is looking to turn it around with a dominant performance in today’s matchup against the Toronto Blue Jays. In a back-and-forth matchup that ended with a Matt Olson homer, the Atlanta Braves are coming off […]
The Blue Jays and right-handed reliever Justin Topa are in agreement on a minor league contract, per the MiLB.com transaction log. He’ll head to Triple-A Buffalo for the time being. Topa was designated for assignment by the Twins and released late last month. Topa, 35, has pitched in parts of seven big league seasons and […]
Worcester: W, 3-2 (BOX SCORE) Jake Bennett threw five innings of great work, allowing just one hit to propel the WooSox to a lead, but they couldn’t get any run support for him and so they pulled into the ninth inning trailing the Bison (Blue Jays AAA) 2-1. Enter a rally that got everyone involved: […]
Blue Jays 3 Braves 4 That wasn’t Kevin Gausman’s best game. 6 innings, 5 hits, 4 earned, 2 walks, 8 strikeouts and a home run. Of course, when you get 18 outs and 8 of them are strikeouts, it seems like it should be a good game. But, he gave up 2 in the first […]
The Toronto Blue Jays have been without Alejandro Kirk since early April after he was forced to undergo thumb surgery. But now, the catcher is nearing his long-awaited return to the major leagues. On Wednesday, Kirk will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Dunedin, via Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet. He will begin his rehab assignment […]

With a pitching matchup that favors the Blue Jays on paper, even with Bryce Elder’s solid performance this season, the Braves got off to a dream start in the first, with a Ronald Acuna turning into a run with a Michael Harris double. Harris came around on a groundout and a sac fly for a […]
The Atlanta Braves have spent the first two months of the 2026 season proving they belong atop Major League Baseball. After a 4-3 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday night, the Braves improved their MLB-best record to 41-20 and further cemented their status as a legitimate World Series contender. Yet October presents a […]

The injuries continue to pile up for the Toronto Blue Jays, notably in the starting rotation. With Dylan Cease, Shane Bieber, Max Scherzer and Jose Berrios currently on the IL (the latter for the entire season), the Jays will continue to look for pitching help. Despite their floundering start to the 2026 season, the defending American League champions still find themselves tied for a Wild Card berth at this point. If they can get to the postseason, not many teams would want to face a sho...
Game one of three in Atlanta. There is some rain in the forecast, but it sounds like the game should happen.The Braves have been through several ballparks, in the last few years, none with a roof. But it sounds like the game should happen. There is hockey tonight too, which may make my decision to […]
The Jays shared some injury news today: Apparently it is raining in Atlanta. I’m hoping the game will happen, because I’ve planed to watch at the bar with a friend, and, if the game doesn’t happen, we’ll have to talk or something.

With a matchup of Bryce Elder vs Kevin Gausman on the mound in game 1 of the series against Toronto and of the two-series homestand, the Braves are once again rolling with Jorge Mateo over Ha-Seong Kim at shortstop. Mateo is the hot hand and has been legitimately very good for Atlanta this season, providing […]
With the Atlanta Braves about to start a series against the Toronto Blue Jays, the team is entering the slate of games with the best record in all of the MLB at 40-20. As Braves star Ronald Acuna Jr. is now starting to come back to elite player and the other components of the team […]

The Atlanta Braves, who lead the NL East by 9.5 games and are leading the league in designating Carlos Carrasco for assignment, have made a roster move before tonight’s game with the Toronto Blue Jays. Lookie lookie lookie, here comes Cookie. I don’t quite understand why MLB doesn’t just allow teams to hold 14 pitchers […]
The Jays finally got a day off after finishing 17 straight games with a 10-7 record. But back at it tonight, they are facing the team with the best record in all of baseball: Atlanta Braves. The Braves have gone 40-20 so far this season, burying their closest competitors at 9.5 games back out of […]
The Toronto Blue Jays entered 2026 expecting to build on last year’s American League pennant run. Instead, the Blue Jays have spent the first two months trying to stay within reach in a crowded AL East race. At 29-31, they still have time to recover from their slow start, but Toronto needs a true frontline […]

The Jays and we get a day off. As much as I enjoy baseball, I don’t mind days off. We are using the evening to see a National Geographic lecture. Yes, I’m that old. So we have time for an OpenThread. Use it to chat about anything you like, within site rules. It doesn’t have […]
Happy Monday, Camden Chatters! It was a very successful weekend in Birdland. After dropping the first two games of the series with the Blue Jays, and getting very close to ruining the good vibes created over the first six games of the homestand. But they staged an incredible ninth-inning comeback on Saturday and scored nine […]
June is here, and with it a summer filled with baseball is about to start. The Yankees are in the thick of a division race that promises to go down to the wire as always, sitting 1.5 games behind the Rays but a comfortable 7.5 games ahead of the rest of Toronto, Boston, and Baltimore. […]
The Toronto Blue Jays definitely did not need any more injuries on their plate. Yet they were forced to sideline their $6.8 million star mid-game on Sunday as the outfielder suffered an injury, perhaps in the oddest possible way. He left the match against the Baltimore Orioles after a ball thrown by a fan hit […]
