2 h. ago New York Yankees manager claps back at Toronto Blue Jays broadcaster Buck Martinez

It's been nearly a month since Buck Martinez criticized the New York Yankees.However, his comments haven't been forgotten.When the Blue Jays beat the Houston Astros on Sept. 9, the story wasn't about the final result (a 4-3 Toronto win). What most remember from that game were Martinez's comments in the seventh inning when he found out that the Detroit Tigers were pounding the Yankees."You know, the Yankees, they're not a good team. I don't care what their record is. They have a lot of wild pitches, they make a lot of mistakes in the field, they don't run the bases very well. If they don't hit home runs, they don't have a chance to win."Well, turns out that neither the fans nor Yankees manager Aaron Boone have forgotten his comments.“Contrary to some thoughts up here, we’re a really good team," Boone told reporters on Friday.Just in case it wasn't clear who Boone was talking about, he later clarified."I know...

52 h. ago Toronto real estate prices plummeting and here's what the average home costs now

Toronto's turbulent real estate market has been accelerating nose-first into the ground for months, and while home sales in the region are actually showing signs of a rebound in the second half of the year, there is still a long road ahead to recovery.However, despite the doom and gloom, the latest monthly figures from the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB) offer some hope for buyers and sellers in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).September home sales in the GTA spiked year-over-year, with declines in average home prices and increased flexibility in negotiations, as sellers are accepting offers well below the asking price, helping to lure cost-conscious buyers out of hibernation. This is thanks in part to the runaway supply of unsold units.A few factors are driving the 5,592 home sales reported by TRREB in September –  a noticeable 8.5 per cent bump over the same month last year. One factor cited by TRREB President Elechia Barry-Sproule is the recent Bank o...
