Latest news and updates about the Blue Jays
The Toronto Blue Jays have quietly worked their way back into the American League postseason conversation, making it fair to wonder whether a major move could come before the trade deadline. After a sluggish 15-17 start to the 2026 campaign, the Blue Jays have begun to recover, going 18-17 over their last 35 outings. This […] The post Blue Jays’ perfect trade offer for Nationals’ CJ Abrams appeared first on ClutchPoints .
When the Red Sox fall down by two runs or more in a game this season, it’s like a death sentence. The offense is so inept, it can’t dig myself out of a small hole and subsequently, they’re 0-31 this season.
Blue Jays 3 Red Sox 0 It seems weird to get a shutout in a game that the Jays pitchers really didn’t look great An impromptu bullpen day, with Max Scherzer scratched with back tightness (landing him on the IL), Jays pitchers walked seven and allowed seven hits. You’d imagine one of those baserunners would […]
The Red Sox got a fairly effective outing from Jake Bennett in his fourth MLB start, which didn’t eventually matter with a zero on the board from Boston’s offense. The Blue Jays secured the series victory in a 3-0 win. The Red Sox fell to 13 games under .500 for the first time since 2015 […]
The Royals announced today they have acquired pitcher Randy Dobnak from the Seattle Mariners for cash considerations.

The Angels announced the acquisition of catcher Tyler Heineman from the Blue Jays. Toronto, who had designated him for assignment over the weekend, receive cash considerations. The Halos opened a spot on the 40-man roster when they designated Trey Mancini for assignment this afternoon. They therefore didn’t need to announce a corresponding move tonight, but they […]
The Toronto Blue Jays and Los Angeles Angels agreed to a trade on Wednesday, the Blue Jays announced. The Angels acquired catcher Tyler Heineman for cash considerations.

He also spent parts of […] The post Blue Jays, Angels make intriguing trade on Wednesday appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Well, Jays, England won, so I’m in a good mood. DO NOT RUIN IT. No Mad Max tonight, or for the next two weeks plus (at least). Braydon Fisher will be the opener tonight. After that? I’d imagine SWR will have some part of this game. And Spencer Miles. Today’s Lineups BLUE JAYS RED SOX […]
The Toronto Blue Jays signed Max Viera to a minor league contract. The 25-year-old utility player had his contract purchased from the High Point Rockers of the independent Atlantic League. Viera was slashing .252/.374/.380 in 44 games for High Point…

The Toronto Blue Jays have not had Shane Bieber on the mound at all this campaign, as he has been on the IL due to right elbow inflammation. However, with the summer finally here, it appears he is nearing his 2026 season debut.

With the American League team at risk of becoming the Toronto Blue Jays plus Yordan Alvarez, I think it's time the fan vote got taken out to pasture.
The Rogers Centre has proven to be a house of horrors for the Yankees over the last calendar year. In dropping the recent series opener in Toronto, the Yankees had lost nine of their last ten games north of the border including a pair of thumpings in the first two games of the 2025 ALDS. […]
It is Manuel Lee’s (I still think of him as Manny) 61st birthday. Manny played infield for the Blue Jays for eight seasons. He wasn’t known for his bat—hitting .254/.304/.323 in 753 games—but he offered versatility, covering short, second, third, and even filling in the outfield a couple of times. After his time with the […]

After an off day Monday and a series victory over the Rangers, the Red Sox returned to Fenway Park to open a three-game set against the division-rival Blue Jays.
The Red Sox had more hits than the Blue Jays, more walks than the Blue Jays, more than double the opportunities with runners in scoring position than the Blue Jays, and yet lost an uncompetitive 6-1 snoozefest to the Blue Jays. Despite numerous chances to take an early lead against Dylan Cease, who was struggling […]
The Boston Red Sox celebrated Pride Night at Fenway Park against the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday.

The Toronto Blue Jays moved to 35-38 with a 6-1 win over the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday. Leading the way was outfielder George Springer.

After a solid run with the Los Angeles Angels for several years as a versatile and productive utility man, infielder Luis Rengifo had a tough season in 2025, and hit free agency, where the Halos let him walk. The Milwaukee Brewers decided to take a flyer on the former .300 hitter, handing him a $3.5 million deal for the 2026 season, but it just hasn't worked out. Now they've designated him for assignment. Luis Rengifo to be designated for assignment by the Brewers, per @ragazzorepo...
If you were to ask a random group of Red Sox fans what the most fun part of the 2026 season has been so far, many might come back from the slim pickings and respond with some version of “watching Payton Tolle pitch.” It’s certainly not a bad answer, but in typical 2026 Red Sox […]
