World Series Game 1 – Dodgers at Blue Jays

Two-time Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell will take the mound for the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 1 of the 2025 World Series where he’ll be opposed by a guy who began the year pitching for the Dunedin Blue Jays of the Class-A Florida State League. The rise of Trey Yesavage has been meteoric […]

World Series Open Thread

The hallmark of the baseball season, the World Series kicks off tonight with the Los Angeles Dodgers heading to Toronto to play the Blue Jays. The Blue Jays serve as the hosts for the first few games, winning 94 games in the regular season to the Dodgers’ 93. After Toronto’s achingly close series against the […]

World Series Game 1 thread: Bo Bichette at second base

The first Blue Jays World Series game in 32 years is tonight. There are only a few guys on the team who could have watched the last one: Max Scherzer, George Springer, Chris Bassitt, Kevin Gausman, Tommy Nance, Tyler Heineman…Jeff Hoffman would have been 9 months old. Scherzer would be the only one who might […]

Dodgers World Series Game 1 starting lineup

The Dodgers have settled into a fairly regular lineup, especially with no more opposing left-handed starters to face. Their lineup in Game 1 of the World Series against the Blue Jays on Friday night at Rogers Centre in Toronto features the same starting nine players for a fifth straight game. Shohei Ohtani leads off, which […]

Breaking down the World Series lineups

We have a Fall Classic matchup between the National League’s chalk pick and one of the more surprising American League winners, at least based on preseason projections. The Toronto Blue Jays will welcome the reigning and defending World Series champion Dodgers tonight for the first Fall Classic in Canada since 1993, and the big face-off […]

World Series Game 1 is here

Second verse, same as the first. (Hopefully). Tonight, the Los Angeles Dodgers look to finish what they started, defending their World Series title from 2024. They will face the Toronto Blue Jays in what is shaping up to be a battle of the most annoying cliches and narratives. USA vs. Canada. Good vs Evil. David […]

2025 World Series Preview: Dodgers vs. Blue Jays

After a thrilling win (or crushing defeat for Mariners fans), the Toronto Blue Jays earned the right to meet the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 2025 World Series. The Blue Jays will make their first appearance in the World Series since 1993, when they won 4-2 over the Phillies. For those counting at home, it’s […]

Friday Open Thread: World Series Memories

The 2025 World Series kicks off tonight, pairing the reigning champions, the Los Angeles Dodgers, against the surprise AL-winners, the Toronto Blue Jays (the only team that makes the “World” Series remotely international). It should be an exciting showdown of generational talent, and a chance to see Clayton Kershaw’s final major league appearances (his inclusion […]

Toronto Raptors play home opener against Bucks amid World Series excitement

It’s a huge day in Toronto sports history, but for the Raptors, it’s just game no. 2 of 82. The Toronto Raptors will welcome the Milwaukee Bucks at Scotiabank Arena for their home opener tonight, but the attention of everyone will be just two blocks down the street. With the Blue Jays playing game 1 […]

Blue Jays add Bo Bichette, Ty France to World Series roster

I figured Bo Bichette was going to be on the roster. Ty France was a surprise, but I guess they want him as a pitch hitter against the Dodgers left-hander pitchers. Joey Loperfido and Yariel Rodriguez. Rodriguez has had a tough time of it lately, giving up three earned and two home runs in one […]

Elephant Rumblings: World Series Begins Tonight

Happy Friday A’s fans! The 2025 World Series begins tonight in Toronto as the Blue Jays host the Los Angeles Dodgers for the first game of the series. As the #1 seed the Jays get home-field advantage thus getting to host the first two games before the series shifts to LA. Still, let there be […]

Happy Birthday Chris Colabello

Chris Colabello turns 42 today. The Blue Jays picked up Chris off waivers from the Twins before the 2015 season. In two seasons with the Twins, he hit .214/.284/.364, with 13 home runs in 114 games. So we can be excused for not being excited about a 31-year-old who could play first or DH but […]

Sugar Boo? Fishy? The Springfield Rifle? It's another weird nickname quiz

 Big Dumper, we hardly knew ye. Yes, I know I’m a hockey columnist, and we’ll get to that. But the big news up in Canada these days is all about baseball, with the Blue Jays dramatic Game 7 win over the Mariners on Monday sending them to the World Series, which starts tonight in Toronto. It won’t shock you to learn that I’m a Blue Jays fan and have been since I was a little kid, so I’m obviously thrilled to see the team make it back to the top of the mountain after three decades. But I ha...

What are your predictions for the World Series?

In the off chance you weren’t aware, the World Series officially begins tonight when the Toronto Blue Jays host the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 1 of the best of seven series. Blake Snell will take the mound for the Dodgers against Trey Yesavage for the Blue Jays at 8pm tonight. The Dodgers are looking to […]

Friday BP: World Series Game 1

Good morning, baseball fans! The world’s biggest Toronto Blue Jays fan has arrived to discuss tonight’s World Series Game 1 between the Blue Jays and the Los Angeles Dodgers from the Rogers Centre in Toronto. Taking the mound for the Dodgers will be left-hander and former/not-forever Giant Blake Snell, who finished the regular season with […]

Today in Blue Jays History: Jays win their first World Series

33 years ago today The Blue Jays won their first World Series. It seems our first World Series win isn’t as celebrated as our second one, likely because it didn’t end in a walk-off homer. But it did end with Joe Carter jumping up and down. Game 6 was a 4-3, 11-inning win. We were […]

BYB Roundtable: Who takes the 2025 World Series trophy?

The culmination of the 2025 Major League Baseball season is here, with the Los Angeles Dodgers taking on the Toronto Blue Jays for this year’s World Series title. Of course, the Detroit Tigers were a part of the postseason action, but they faltered in the ALDS against the Seattle Mariners in a white-knuckle five-game series. […]

Friday Bird Droppings: It’s World Series time

Good morning, Camden Chatters. Our torturous hiatus from baseball is over. After a three-day break following the Championship Series round, the World Series begins tonight. It’ll be the Dodgers (bleh) against the Blue Jays (yuck) in a matchup in which I, personally, will be rooting for the meteor. First pitch of Game 1 is scheduled […]

Snell, Yesavage named Game 1 starters

The Game One starting pitchers for the World Series have been named. Blake Snell will be getting the start for the Los Angeles Dodgers, while Trey Yesavage will be starting for the Toronto Blue Jays. Snell only made 11 regular season starts for the Dodgers but was excellent in those outings, putting up a 2.35 […]

Trey Yesavage to start Game 1 for Blue Jays

I was sure Kevin Gausman would start game one, but I was wrong. Trey Yesavage is getting tomorrow’s start. He’ll be the second youngest pitcher ever to start a game one. Ralph Branca, who started for the Dodgers way back in 1947 was the youngest, 21 and 267 days. Right now, one of my kids […]
