4 h. ago MLB insider says Toronto Blue Jays should be worried about Bo Bichette

Despite not having Bo Bichette in the lineup, the Toronto Blue Jays hold a 2-0 lead over the New York Yankees in the ALDS.Bichette, who suffered a knee injury late in the season, was tied for second amongst all MLB players with 181 hits despite playing in just 139 games.Though Bichette's injury kept him off the Blue Jays' ALDS roster, there was hope amongst the fanbase that he might be able to return soon after if they were to advance. The Jays themselves, however, didn't provide much clarity regarding a timeline, and we may now know why.According to MLB insider Ken Rosenthal, the Blue Jays shortstop isn't moving around like a player who is nearing a return to game action."In my opinion, [the Blue Jays] have to be concerned," Rosenthal said on Foul Territory. "It's not so much what I'm hearing, but what I'm seeing being by their dugout. He is not walking like a guy who is fully healthy. He's got a bit of a limp."To my knowledge, he...

6 h. ago What does Vladimir Guerrero Jr. always write in dirt with his bat?

When Vladimir Guerrero Jr. steps up to the plate for the Toronto Blue Jays, there's hardly a more anticipated moment in Canadian sports.During Sunday's Game 2 of the ALDS, Guerrero delivered easily his biggest moment yet as a member of the team, hitting a grand slam in the bottom of the fourth inning that sent the Rogers Centre into a frenzy.While closing the game out ended up being a bit more of a chore than anticipated, Guerrero's moonshot gave Toronto a 9-0 lead and a real sense that maybe, just maybe, they'd actually be able to knock off their longtime rival, the New York Yankees.But before Guerrero stepped up to the plate for the at-bat, he took a moment for his traditional routine.What does the Blue Jays star Guerrero write in the ground with his bat?Guerrero is already eighth in all-time at-bats for the Blue Jays, and has made his way up all sorts of all-time team leaderboards since his MLB debut in 2019.Before his grand slam (and just about every ot...
