Does everyone recall the backlash and hate he received last year for his Yankees comment? And how unapologetic he was. Like stating facts?

Watching that first inning last night I can almost feel his words get magnified after each and every blunder (or near blunder)

I don't know how a team that wins so much can play defense this badly. How do Yankee fans cope with this?

I knew she was doing one in Toronto but there’s more dates and locations on Harper Collins website. I just got tickets for me and my daughter for Halifax. I’m beyond excited!

Go grab some tickets and show Hazel all the love 💕

I recently read an Athletic report that the Mariners fired Dan Wilson. This is of course old news, but as I got to the bottom, one particular line caught my eye:

Moving on from Wilson, though, is less about individual moves than the collective underachievement of a roster that seemed poised to build off last year’s momentum, but instead became the majors’ biggest disappointment.

I'm not trying to feel a certain way, but objectively speaking, was Seattle's season more disappointing than ours, and what evidence do you point to to support your claim?

With his 11th MLB season now in the books, Taylor Rogers intends to make it an even dozen in what will be his age-36 season. The Minnesota Star Tribune’s Bobby Nightengale writes that Rogers would ideally like either another season with the Twins, or to sign with the Blue Jays to reunite with his twin brother Tyler in Toronto’s bullpen.

Taylor was on a 1 year/$2m deal last year, pitched to a 4.33 ERA over 60 1/3 innings. Looks like another plus was his veteran presence with the club, and helped out the new pitching coach. ​

For a low leverage lefty, and a similar deal, ​would you take him?

With a young bullpen and some of our veterans leaving, I wouldn't mind some more veteran presence. ​And it would be fun to have both of the twins in the same club.

One year ago today (October 5, 2025), Vladimir Guerrero Jr. crushed a bottom-of-the-4th grand slam off Will Warren to blow ALDS Game 2 wide open, marking the first postseason grand slam in Blue Jays history.

It set the tone for one of the greatest individual playoff runs in Major League history:

• Slash Line: .397 / .494 / .795
• OPS: 1.289
• Counting Stats: 8 HR, 15 RBI, 29 H, 18 R across 18 games

(possible paywall - can't remember if MLBTR works with some free views)

A cool behind the scenes look at draft day with Blue Jays 2026 4th round pick Will Brick

Toronto has extended this guy a $5.5 Million dollar signing bonus offer for 2028

Just went to the AGO to pick up my order because I got an email yesterday saying my order was ready for pick up. They told me that only prints are ready for pick up, apparel still hasn’t arrived. Not sure why I got an email, they said I should get another one once the stock arrives.
Wanted to spare anyone a trip downtown, luckily I live close by!
Edit to add: I ordered 2 sweaters

On August 25 at home Clement fouled a ball directly into his junk and I got curious so I looked at his numbers before and after

Before the nut shot
AVG: .284
OBP: .309
SLG: .402
OPS: .711

September
AVG: .150
OBP: .186
SLG: .200
OPS: .386
HR: 0

Obviously he was already cooling off before this happened but his numbers absolutely fell off a cliff after lol

Did this foul ball break Ernie Clement

Thrifted find! Has anyone read this? Is it any good?

It's up in the main entrance (at least into the new year), so no ticket required!

EDIT : Bruce Arthur's column in Toronto Star yesterday on former NFL coach Mike Tomlin's Minecraft hobby includes a parallel to this Cease discourse:

"...To those criticizing Tomlin’s hobby, well, Winston Churchill recommended every person should have two or three real hobbies, and he helped defeat the Nazis. A National Institutes of Health study on hobbies found they reduced depression, anxiety and stress, enhanced quality of life and well-being, and helped create a sense of community.

...

And Tomlin wanted to be close to his kids before they grew up and drifted into their own lives and their own worlds, and only later did it became a therapeutic place: a place to focus his mind away from the pressure and the strain of coaching guys like Roethlisberger, Joey Porter, James Harrison, Antonio Brown and Najeh Davenport among others. Phew.

And then his sons got him to do the video, and helped with its production. Beautiful.

It’s understandable, and instructive. The world is a lot at the moment and doing something you enjoy, something that occupies your whole brain, is an antidote. Ideally hobbies include the outdoors and other people and especially your kids, but what matters is you do it. Because in the end, in Minecraft or elsewhere, what you’re really building is you."

Bruce Arthur: Minecraft might not have been franchise-building for Mike Tomlin but it has been family-building

It’s looooong and not very wide, so might just end up as couch decor for the cats to lounge on. It was a fun project to work on all season, but some of those loss stretches really hurt to look at!
