6/24/25 | Stephen Vogt happy for Ernie Clement's rise — just not this week: Guardians takeaways. Ernie Clement was once a utility man trying to crack Cleveland's lineup. Now he's a lineup fixture in Toronto — and Guardians manager Stephen Vogt, who played briefly with the infielder toward the end of his career with the Athletics, has taken notice. Clement, Cleveland's 2017 fourth-round pick out of Virginia, was released by the Guardians in 2022 after making his big-league debut with the club the previous season. Clement found his way to Toronto in 2023 after crossing paths with Vogt in Oakland. Source: https://www.cleveland.com/guardians/2025/06/stephe... |
6/12/25 | Toronto Blue Jays Major Offseason Additions Have All Been Busts Thus Far. The Toronto Blue Jays are one of the hottest teams in baseball, sitting a season-high eight games over the .500 mark with a 38-30 record. Winners in 12 out of their last 14 contests, they have pushed their way right back into the playoff picture in the American League, currently holding the final wild card spot. The Blue Jays have been receiving excellent contributions from players up and down the roster, with unheralded hitters such as Ernie Clement and Addison Barger taking their games to another level in May.

6/05/25 | How Blue Jays fan favourite Davis Schneider worked through hitting struggles to get back to Toronto.

After a stint to reset at Triple-A Buffalo, bespectacled fan favourite Davis Schneider is back. Aside from causing some mild confusion in the clubhouse given that he has the same surname as the team's manager — it happens fairly often — the return is a welcome sight for the Jays and their fans.

5/25/25 | The Blue Jays are paying $100 million for Andres Gimenez and his dollar-store bat. They're better without him.
