WEST SACRAMENTO -- Before the Blue Jays’ road series opener against the Athletics in June 2024, manager John Schneider delivered bad news: Pitcher Alek Manoah would need season-ending surgery to repair a torn UCL. Over a year later, with Toronto again ready to start a road set against the A’s,

TORONTO -- Every adrenaline junkie has a way to get their fix. Some jump out of airplanes, plummeting towards earth until they pull their parachute. Some jump off bridges, a bungee cord strapped around their ankles. Max Scherzer pitches.

CLEVELAND -- One inning after Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. was hit by a pitch on his right forearm, Guardians third baseman José Ramírez experienced the same fate in the fourth inning of Thursday afternoon’s series finale between Toronto and Cleveland at Progressive Field.

TORONTO -- Nearly three months since he made his debut with the Blue Jays, Max Scherzer is back. Scherzer on Wednesday was activated from the 60-day injured list to start against Cleveland, a move the club hopes will mark the end of a long, challenging battle against his pesky right

TORONTO -- There are two open spots in the Blue Jays’ rotation now. The club significantly shuffled the roster, placing starter Bowden Francis on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to Sunday) and designating reliever Erik Swanson for assignment ahead of Tuesday’s series opener against the D-backs at Rogers Centre.

PHILADELPHIA -- Even if the Blue Jays have been one of the hottest teams in baseball, all of the attention on Friday was on a Triple-A game 400 miles away. Max Scherzer made his first rehab start, throwing 56 pitches over 4 1/3 innings of two-run ball with four strikeouts

ST. LOUIS -- Max Scherzer is coming. Well, at least that’s the plan. Scherzer is now scheduled to make his first rehab start Friday with the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons, and if he only needs one more outing following that, it could put Scherzer on track to return before the end

TORONTO -- The Blue Jays reinstated Andrés Giménez off the 10-day injured list and Tyler Heineman off the 7-day concussion injured list ahead of Tuesday’s game against the Phillies. To make room for Giménez and Heineman on the roster, infielder Michael Stefanic and catcher Ali Sánchez were designated for assignment.

TORONTO -- Baseball moves quickly. Less than 24 hours after Daulton Varsho went down with a left hamstring injury against the A’s, the Blue Jays are trying to fit their crowded, complicated outfield puzzle together again.

TORONTO -- Just as the Blue Jays were building another rally on Saturday against the A’s, the air was sucked out of Rogers Centre when Daulton Varsho went down with a left leg injury. The early diagnosis is “left hamstring discomfort.” Varsho launched a deep shot to left field that

TORONTO -- The Blue Jays have placed Anthony Santander on the 10-day IL, a decision that feels like it’s been looming as a possibility for weeks now. Santander’s official designation here is left shoulder inflammation, but he’s also dealt with some left hip inflammation over the past week-plus. Santander clearly

TAMPA -- The Blue Jays are facing some time without Yimi García, arguably their most important reliever, who has been placed on the 15-day IL with a right shoulder impingement. The news came as a surprise before Saturday’s game against the Rays at George M. Steinbrenner Field. There was no

SEATTLE -- The Blue Jays’ defense will need to get used to life without Andrés Giménez, at least for 10 days. Giménez was placed on the IL with a right quad strain before Friday’s series opener against the Mariners at T-Mobile Park. The Blue Jays had spent the last couple

ANAHEIM -- Max Scherzer is one step closer to returning to the mound. The 40-year-old right-hander, who has been on the injured list with right thumb inflammation since exiting early from his Blue Jays debut on March 29, faced live batters Tuesday for the first time since his injury.

TORONTO -- Erik Swanson’s path back to the big leagues just hit another unfortunate detour.

TORONTO -- The bullpen shuffle begins. The Blue Jays designated Jacob Barnes for assignment prior to Sunday’s finale against the Mariners, which wasn’t a surprise after he allowed a grand slam in the 12th inning the night before, but the second move wasn’t expected. Nick Sandlin hit the IL with

TORONTO -- Max Scherzer has a very important right thumb. If his thumb behaves and Scherzer bounces back into this Blue Jays rotation a few weeks from now, an already excellent rotation could be one of the best in baseball. If that thumb keeps barking, then this anxious conversation stretches

BALTIMORE -- The Blue Jays can breathe a big sigh of relief as they head back to Toronto, their nine-game, three-city road trip complete. What seemed like it may have been a devastating loss after George Springer exited early with a left wrist injury ended with a 7-6, 10-inning win

TORONTO -- George Springer left Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Mets in clear pain after slamming into the Citi Field wall in the eighth inning, a worrying moment after the veteran has been one of the Blue Jays’ best stories early this season. The good news, for now? Springer’s early

TORONTO -- Saturday in Toronto, there was such a sense of hope and excitement. Max Scherzer, the likely future Hall of Famer who looks like he still has something left in the tank, was making his Blue Jays debut. Three hours later, Scherzer was using phrases like “imminent danger” and

TORONTO -- In the bullpen before his Blue Jays debut, Max Scherzer felt that something wasn’t right. He gave manager John Schneider a heads-up before the game, asking that they work with him as he tried to pitch through this, but after three innings and 45 pitches, Scherzer’s debut came

DUNEDIN, Fla. -- Daulton Varsho was always the biggest variable in Blue Jays camp. Now that he’s officially starting 2025 on the IL, the other dominos can start to fall. Varsho will travel with the Blue Jays to Toronto to receive his Gold Glove Award on Opening Day, but after

DUNEDIN, Fla. -- Max Scherzer's right thumb just became one of the most important things in Blue Jays camp. Scherzer has been dealing with soreness recently, and while he was able to face some Minor League hitters in a simulated game at the Blue Jays’ complex on Monday, the real
