Blue Jays And Rangers Brawl, Completely Ignore Game [UPDATE: They Brawled Again]
Toronto and Texas brawled in the top of the eighth as punches were flying while the ball was still bouncing around the field. We’re waiting on a good video replay; for now, enjoy this feed from Fox Sports Southwest and KRLD....
Here's Some Baseball Knowledge To Get You Thinking About The Relentless Approach Of Death
Hello, fellow millennial baseball fans, I have come to make you sad....
Kevin Pillar Is A Filthy Thief With No Regard For His Own Body
The stuntman catch in the clip here, by Blue Jays centerfielder Kevin Pillar, came in the top of the ninth inning Saturday, with Toronto down a couple of runs and needing a miracle. The Dodgers wound up winning, but not because Pillar gives a single thin shit about the welfare of his joints and orga...
Derek Holland Got Lit Up
The Blue Jays took their bats to the Dutch Oven Thursday night. Rangers starter Derek Holland was the first pitcher to give up double-digit runs in an appearance this season, as Toronto won, 12-2....
Joey Rickard Teleports A Hit Right Through Josh Donaldson's Glove
Oh, you thought Troy Tulowitzki’s ragged-ass glove would be the only piece of equipment from the left-side of the Blue Jays’ infield to make news this season? Wrong....
The Blue Jays Lost In The Saddest Way
Sometimes, your team really bones it and gives up a walk-off home run. Or maybe they lose after a new MLB rule bites them in the ass. Both of those scenarios suck, but neither is outright embarrassing. The Blue Jays’ 4-3 loss to the Orioles in extras tonight, however, ended in sad, humiliating fashi...
Brett Gardner Tumbles Butt First Into The Stands To Catch A Foul Ball
The Yankees wrap up a three-game series in Toronto tonight, and they got their second out of the night with a fair bit of pizazz, as Brett Gardner went ass-over-teakettle to make this grab here....
A Very Rude Blue Jays Fan Found Pablo Sandoval A New Belt
Big-bellied Pablo Sandoval had a bit of a mishap with his belt during Saturday’s game against the Blue Jays. It happened during his second at-bat of the season, and it’s honestly starting to feel like some higher power is ordering Sandoval’s 2016 campaign to be a never-ending fat joke. For example:...
New MLB Slide Rule Costs The Blue Jays A Game And They Are Pissed
Baseball’s controversial new Chase Utley Rule was implemented for the first (update: second) time in a game tonight, and it could not have come at a more crucial juncture. Down by a run with the bases loaded and one out in the top of the ninth, Edwin Encarnacion slapped a grounder to third. Logan Fo...
Troy Tulowitzki Is Going To Ridiculous Lengths To Keep Using His Ancient Glove
Troy Tulowitzki is apparently not the type of person who easily lets go of the past. Tulo has used the same glove for at least five years (or as many as eight, depending who you believe), and even as it was clearly deteriorating back into dust in last year’s ALCS, the Blue Jays shortstop stuck with ...
Kevin Pillar Smashes Into Wall After Spectacular Grab
Kevin Pillar didn’t get a hit in this evening’s 5-3 Blue Jays win over the Rays, but he did manage to make the best catch of this nascent MLB season. Steve Pearce probably thought he had a hit on his hands here. Not so fast....
Marcus Stroman Isn't Talking To You, Man
I wanted to be grouchy about MLB scheduling three games yesterday, because I’m one of those extremely cool guys who believes Opening Day should be on a Monday and every team should play. And yet, it was hard to be in a bad mood while watching 24-year-old Marcus Stroman dice up the Rays....
Drew Hutchison Gets Smoked By His Own Catcher
This time last year, Blue Jays pitcher Drew Hutchison was getting ready to start on Opening Day. Yesterday, he found himself making his final start of spring training, with one last chance to secure a spot in the big-league rotation. Things were going okay for about four innings, until Hutchison had...
Cops Question Blue Jays Fan For Tweeting Threat To Statue Over Jose Bautista Contract
Back when it was clear that Jose Bautista and the Blue Jays were far apart on a potential contract extension, a number of fans sided with their slugger and against ownership, which despite being among the richest in pro sports has a reputation for failing to spend like it. The ire of one of those fa...
Jose Bautista And The Phillie Phanatic Have A Fitness Contest
I don’t what baseball’s unwritten rules say or don’t say about challenging mascots to handstand contests, but I’d like to believe they’re encouraged....
Troy Tulowitzki Is Over It, But Also Still Kind Of Mad
Troy Tulowitzki has never made a secret of the fact that he was blindsided by and a little bitter about the Colorado Rockies’ decision to trade him to the Blue Jays last summer. Many months have passed, though, and so now it’s time to check in on Tulo and see how much those wounds have healed. Accor...
José Bautista Knows Exactly How Much He's Worth
After a breakout 2010 season at the ripe age of 29, the Toronto Blue Jays signed José Bautista to a five-year, $65-million contract, with a team option for a sixth year. By any standard, Bautista—who has been named an All-Star for six straight seasons—has dramatically outplayed his contract. To give...
The Blue Jays Are Getting A Dirt Infield
The era of the sliding pit is officially over. The Toronto Blue Jays, the last team in baseball to feature an artificial infield with dirt sliding pits around each base, have announced that they will install a real dirt infield before next season....
Should The Blue Jays Have Tried To Keep David Price?
The Red Sox signed David Price to a massive seven-year, $217 million contract. We soon learned that the Cardinals were in second, more than $30 million behind. And the Blue Jays, who said all the right things about hoping to keep their lefty ace who, acquired at the trade deadline, led the team to a...
