Outdueling the Yankees' young ace? Maybe Yesavage is still getting better

Blue Jays can't quite get peak performances synched up
NEW YORK -- Soon, the Blue Jays need two or three individual performances to overlap with one another. Manager John Schneider calls this “playing in sync.” It was the Blue Jays’ superpower a year ago, this constant sense of coordination throughout the lineup, but it’s felt so rare in 2026.
Pair of Blue Jays finally find the seats, but strain on bullpen shows

Blue Jays' offense still awaiting spark after two-run effort
DETROIT -- Until the Blue Jays’ offense comes to life, they’ll continue to find themselves losing games like these. Friday’s 3-2 loss to the Tigers put the Blue Jays on the wrong end of a Spencer Torkelson walk-off, but it shouldn’t have gotten to that point. After Matt Vierling reached
