Flying with the Blue Jays in Toronto, the New York Yankees will regret not promoting Chien-Ming Wang
Fanning five and only allowing five hits over seven scoreless innings, Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Chien-Ming Wang stifled Rangers batters on Sunday in Arlington, Texas. After opting out of Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, the 33-year-old Wang (1-0, 3.14 ERA) signed a one-year contract worth $500,000 last week to become a Blue Jay. Impressing with the New York Yankees affiliate before...
A Father and Son Past Time
On this father’s day, I find myself reflecting on the most influential role model in my life and the great past time that he and I shared together. Like many youths, I had aspirations of playing major league baseball, a train that I rode as far as I could before the harsh realization that I was not going to be the next Gary Carter or Roberto Alomar. My father was there every...
Romero solid in victory over Pawtucket
Ricky Romero is certainly facing an uphill battle. The former All-Star is biding his time in Triple A Buffalo trying to prove to everyone he still has what it takes. On Friday, he sure made everyone took notice. Friday night was the second game of the new and improved Ricky Romero. In a recent article by John Lott of the National Post, Romero said he was "ditching" his...
Yankeetorial: Run, everybody. This is the End. The Yankalypse is here, the Ying of Wang is upon us.
History tells us that these things happen to empires. The Mayans disappeared. The Spanish Armada sank. Springsteen put out Devils and Dust. The Yankees, the mightiest dynasty in sports - (after the Chinese Ping-Pong team of the 1970s), have collapsed. This is not a drill. Make your way to the exits. Women and children first. We practiced for this, people. We tracked this storm...
Blue Jays' Brandon Morrow threw bullpen, scheduled for rehab assignment
The Toronto Blue Jays likely have no hope of salvaging this season, but as the injuries heal, they will get a better idea of could have been and what will be if they keep the team together. Brandon Morrow will soon be re-joining the team as he progresses with his rehab. Morrow is throwing and will be finishing a minor league rehab assignment soon.
Brandon Morrow threw 40...
Toronto Blue Jays: Chien-Ming Wang has a mediocre debut
Chien-Ming Wang
Chien-Ming Wang had a mediocre start on the mound for the Toronto Blue Jays as he made his debut with the team earlier this week against the Chicago White Sox. In 7.1 innings pitched, Wang gave up 10 hits, five earned runs, three walks, and struck out two batters. However, Wang was still able to keep the Jays in the game.
At the top of the ninth inning, with two...
The Bloom Is Off Brett Lawrie’s Rose
In 150 at-bats back in 2011, Brett Lawrie captured our attention and imagination. “If he could hit nine homers in such a short time, Lawrie could have 30-homer potential over the course of a full season,” is likely a sentence you read before the 2012 season. It’s probably a sentence I wrote, as a matter of fact. In the season and a half since though, Lawrie has hit just 16...
Is It Time To Buy Adam Lind?
Adam Lind followed up a sublime 2011 campaign with one of the biggest flops of all time. After hitting 26 homers in 2011, he hit only 11 in 2012, and he only scored 28 runs while knocking in a measly 45. Injury clearly had something to do with it, as he only got 353 plate appearances in 2012. Regardless, Lind entered the 2013 fantasy baseball season with an ADP of the 44th first...
Blue Jays giving RHP Johnson extra day for blister
The Toronto Blue Jays are swapping their weekend starters in Texas to give Josh Johnson an extra day for a blister to heal.
Johnson will now pitch the series finale Sunday against the Rangers. The right-hander pitched five innings against Texas at home on Sunday, when he had a blister on his right middle finger.
R.A. Dickey will move up a day to start in Johnson's spot Saturday...

5 Players The Toronto Blue Jays Could Move If They Become Sellers
Over the course of the next month the Toronto Blue Jays will have to make a decision if they are going to be sellers at the deadline and perhaps try to recoup some of that minor league depth they dealt in the offseason. The current Blue Jays team is structured for a 3 year window to bring a winner north of the border however there is still some work to be done if that plan is going...
