8 h. ago Here's the latest news on Toronto Blue Jays star Bo Bichette's injury

Toronto Blue Jays shortstop Bo Bichette is doing everything in his power to return to the lineup in the near future.The 27-year-old hasn't played since early September, after suffering a PCL strain in his left knee. The injury was initially believed to be short-term, but it has continued to bother Bichette to the point where the Jays chose to leave him off their ALDS roster.Though the Jays still have to get there, the ALCS won't begin until Sunday, giving some optimism that Bichette may be able to be a part of that series, whether right from the beginning or partway through. While that remains to be seen, he was spotted doing some light running drills for the first time at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday morning.News: Bo Bichette is here jogging on the field at Yankee Stadium.Very light, but this is the first we’ve seen. He still didn’t look very comfortable walking back to the dugout. #BlueJays pic.twitter.com/HJBaqpXfbE— Keegan Matheson (@KeeganMatheson) Octo...

12 h. ago These restaurants are where the Toronto Blue Jays eat when they're off

Toronto's beloved Blue Jays may be busy on the road to a potential World Series, but when they're not out raking in wins on the diamond, they can often be found dining at local restaurants.Sports superstars have to eat, too, and the Toronto Blue Jays, on top of being the current object of all of the city's sports-related hopes and dreams, are evidently major fans of the local food scene.While restaurants all over the city are due to get a welcome boost in business as the postseason rages on through October, the players themselves have a selection of favourites where they, personally, like to indulge in a post-win meal when they're on home turf.The Jays could potentially play their next home game on Friday should the New York Yankees recover from their ALDS deficit, so if you want to eat like the team, here's where you should be heading. Or, you could always attempt Real Sports' appalling new No-No Challenge, instead.Vladimir Guerrero Jr.Honorary Tor...
