Latest news and updates about the Blue Jays
Canada 7 Blue Jays 10 It looked like a runaway, early, the Jays were up 7-0 after 2 innings. But Team Canada tied things in the top of the eighth. Then the Jays scored three more in the bottom of the inning. Kevin Gausman cruised through his two innings, allowing a hit and a walk […]

George Springer is a 36-year-old, right-handed hitting, DH/OF, who signed a six-year contract with the Jays back in 2021, for $150 million, so an average of $25 million a year. He’s now played (counting on his fingers), five of those six years. He seems like just a great guy. Always seems happy. Over those five […]

Red Sox 7 Blue Jays 6 I know it is spring, but it would be nice to win occasionally. Cody Ponce threw 2 innings, allowed 4 hits, 1 earned with 2 strikeouts. Not bad for his first time out there. Other pitchers: Hitters, Starters: Others: Tomorrow the Jays host the WBC’s Team Canada. Kevin Gausman […]

Is the game on TV? Yes, first pitch is at 1:07 PM (what? why?) on NESN. I’m guessing this broadcast be similar to a few days ago, though, when NESN simply streamed the home team’s feed, so don’t expect to get your daily dose of Tom Caron. What’s the lineup? What should we watch for? […]

Exhibition games kick off tomorrow, WBC squads facing off against MLB teams. The Jays host Team Canada at their usual 1:07pm ET spring timeslot. Canada then visits the Phillies on Wednesday before flying to Puerto […]

Jays 4 Tigers 4 I know it is spring and all, but I’d like a win again, one day. But we were able to watch a bunch of minor league types (some of whom I had never heard of) Pitchers: Hitters, Starters: Others: The Jays are now 2-6-2 on the spring. Tomorrow, the Jays are […]

We don’t get many regulars today, who wants to work on a Sunday (more like who wants to ride the bus to Lakeland on a Sunday). Our starter is Grant Rogers who pitched in Vancouver and New Hampshire last year. And there are only a couple of guys in the batting order who are sure […]

There was sort of a “last day of school” feeling to today’s spring training game against the Blue Jays. The Jays sent the B-team, with split squad action facing the Yankees and Phillies, while a number of Yanks are set to leave the team and join their World Baseball Classic sides as that tournament kicks […]

We’re in spring training proper now, with less than a week to go before the World Baseball Classic opens, and players on both of the teams squaring off today will represent their countries. Both the Yankees and the Blue Jays will send multiple participants to the WBC, but in the meantime the two AL East […]

Jays 5 Rays 6 The Jays are now 1-5 with a tie, this spring. It wasn’t a good day for Eric Lauer. He went 1.2, allowed 3 hits, 3 earned, hit a batter, and gave up 3 earned. It is early, but if he wants a starting rotation spot, he should give up less runs […]

Today’s game isn’t on TV. I planned my day around getting to sit and watch tonight’s game. And it isn’t on TV. I guess I’m going out to shovel snow. It was +9 yesterday. I wore a light sweater. Overnight it snowed, a lot. The joys of living in Calgary. Today’s lineups: Today’s Lineups BLUE […]

Jesús Sánchez is a 28-year-old, left-handed hitting, outfielder. The Jays traded Joey Loperfido to the Astros to pick him up. Loperfido will be 27 in May, so there isn’t that much difference in age. Sánchez has played 580 MLB games and has a 4.8 bWAR. Loperfido has played 122 games and has a 1.1 bWAR. […]

The Jays and Marlins play in Dunedin at 1:00 Eastern today. We have a bunch of regulars in the lineup. It actually could be close to the lineup they would put out against a lefty starter. And Kevin Gausman gets his first time out there this spring. Gausman set a personal record for innings pitched […]

The headline says it all, but the Jays have signed Max Scherzer to a one-year contract. He’ll make $3 million with ‘up to’ $10 million in incentives. He won’t be starting the season with the Jays. I’d imagine the plan will be to get him going in May with the idea he could join the […]

The Jays have a logjam in their outfield this season. Daulton Varsho is locked into centre, and George Springer looks to mostly man DH, but after that things are up in the air.Addison Barger is probably the priority among the other players. He had a strong rookie season last year, and at 26 with many […]
