Thursday Jays Notes

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 […]

What roster spots are available at Maple Leafs’ training camp, and who might earn them?

The Toronto Maple Leafs enter this season with a very different feel to their roster. General manager John Chayka has laid out an immediate win-now plan, stepping into the captain’s chair in Toronto and looking to right the ship to a Stanley Cup victory. Training camp is just around the corner, and there’s going to…

Raptors To Retire Kyle Lowry’s No. 7 Jersey On Jan. 10

The Raptors will retire Kyle Lowry‘s No. 7, raising his jersey to the rafters during a post-game ceremony following a January 10 matchup with the Sixers, according to a press release from the team. Back when Lowry officially announced his retirement as a player last month, the Raptors indicated they planned to retire his No. […]

Kyle Lowry’s jersey retirement date is perfect

The Toronto Raptors will be having a retirement ceremony for Kyle Lowry this upcoming season, as his No. 7 jersey will be raised into the rafters. The date for the ceremony has been released, and it makes perfect sense that it’ll be when they play the Philadelphia 76ers. “The Raptors announced that Kyle Lowry’s No. […] The post Kyle Lowry’s jersey retirement date is perfect appeared first on ClutchPoints .

After a forgettable 2025-26, Anthony Stolarz gets a fresh start alongside a familiar legend [2026-27 Player Preview]

Anthony Stolarz’s 2025-26 season was strange, injury-disrupted, and ultimately forgettable — a fitting description of the Maple Leafs’ season as a whole. After leading the NHL with a .926 save percentage in 2024-25, Stolarz finished last season at .893 with a 3.28 goals-against average and a 10-10-3 record in 26 appearances. It was the lowest […] The post After a forgettable 2025-26, Anthony Stolarz gets a fresh start alongside a familiar legend [2026-27 Player Preview] appeared first on Map...

Kansas City Royals news: The winning streak ends

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 […]

‘Best Team in the NBA in This’ – Kyle Lowry Gets a Vince Carter Treatment From the Raptors; Fans Love Team’s Gesture for 2019 Champion

Kyle Lowry‘s star might not shine as brightly as those of Russell Westbrook and Chris Paul, but he has one thing that those two future Hall of Famers don’t: an NBA championship. That aside, Lowry also has a unique distinction when it comes to retirement. The Toronto Raptors have shown just how classy a franchise [...]

What the Leafs can learn from the Carolina Hurricanes: Location, location, location

According to a 2009 New York Times Magazine article, the phrase ‘location, location, location’ is loosely credited to the late Lord Harold Samuel, a real estate purveyor who died in 1987. We’re not sure what Baron Samuel of Wych Cross thought about shot optimization in professional sports, but his key to success in real estate…

Lukes Plays Hero, Jays Win

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: […]

Wednesday Jays Notes

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 […]
