Somebody once told me today’s prospect had a terrific start to his Toronto Blue Jays career. This is Blue Jays Nation’s annual Pre-Season Prospect Countdown, this time looking at the top 40 prospects in the organization.
Toronto Blue Jays outfield prospect RJ Schreck is drawing praise from Baseball America ahead of the 2025 season. The publication listed him as the organization's best chance for a "sleeper" prospect.
The Toronto Blue Jays were sellers this past trade deadline, moving all expiring contracts and a handful of veteran players to put some capital back into a farm system that needed some new blood in the organization.
Unlike Thursday, there were some losses in the Blue Jays organization on Friday. Friday saw the four “A” affiliate teams go 2-2, including an important win for the Dunedin Blue Jays.
The only two things rarer in modern-day baseball than the four-homer game is the Triple Crown and the unassisted triple play. The former is, of course, done over an entire season, while there's a large level of lucky in the unassisted triple play.
Schreck is love, Schreck is life. It’s trade O’clock, as the Blue Jays have made another trade, moving Justin Turner to the Seattle Mariners in exchange for RJ Schreck.
The Seattle Mariners made their fifth trade in the last four days on Monday by acquiring veteran first baseman/designated hitter from the Toronto Blue Jays in exchange for outfield prospect RJ Schreck according to multiple reports.
#HugWatch2024 is now in full effect. Justin Turner was pulled from the second inning of this afternoon’s game in Baltimore, with reports that he’s headed to Seattle.
It turns out that Justin Turner was just here for a good time, not a long time. After playing just half a season in the Blue and White, the Toronto Blue Jays have traded him to the Seattle Mariners, The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal reported Monday.
He has remarkably continued to be an above-average hitter as he approaches his 40th birthday, which is in November, though he has unsurprisingly tailed off a bit from his peak.
The Seattle Mariners are set to begin the second half of their season on Friday against the Houston Astros. Over the last week, the team sent two All-Stars to the Midsummer Classic (Logan Gilbert and Andres Munoz) and wrapped up the 2024 MLB Draft.
