last night's loss

The numbers aren't lying. A 4-run loss last night is the biggest weight on the score. And a 2-5 week weighs heavy on the score.

Blue Jays News

The Toronto Blue Jays are stumbling to the finish line of the season, now sitting at 78-82 after narrowly escaping the Cincinnati Reds 6-5. Despite the win, a grim 2-5 record over the past week combined with a run differential of -5 highlights the team's struggles. As the regular season winds down, Max Scherzer prepares for his start tomorrow, but his uncertain future casts a shadow over the Blue Jays' rotation. Meanwhile, former Jays pitcher Nate Pearson continues to face challenges, unable to find the strike zone and contributing to a loss for the Kansas City Royals. In this atmosphere of uncertainty, the focus also turns to the minor leagues, where the organization looks for slivers of hope amidst a disappointing season.

He hasn’t put up numbers that would make me want to re-sign him. […]

Blue Jays 2026 end of season Prospect Countdown: No. 20 Chad Dallas
Chad Dallas was one of many prospects to make his debut for the 2026 Toronto Blue Jays. It was a long time coming for the right-handed pitcher. Originally drafted in 2021, Dallas broke out in 2023, but dealt with injuries in 2024, which forced him to miss all of the 2025 season. Finally, Dallas emerged…
