2 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...

A Toronto sports bar just introduced a new eating challenge that'll have you slam six pounds of beef in under an hour.While the Toronto Blue Jays look to extend their two-game winning streak against the New York Yankees tonight, fans can engage in a little bit of healthy competition themselves at Real Sports Bar."Healthy," of course, is used facetiously here, because this challenge is more likely to have you running home to put on your stretchy pants than running the bases.Eating challenges are a kitschy — albeit hard to watch — offering at no small number of restaurants across the continent. Heck, there was an entire TV show devoted to them for over a decade.For Toronto's part, though, the options for folks intent on exploring the absolute limit of their stomach capacities are decidedly limited. That's where Real Sports comes in.Their recently revamped menu features, among the usual suspects of mozzarella sticks and chicken wings, the ominousl...

The Toronto Blue Jays found their newest postseason legend on Sunday.Rising up through the minor leagues at a rapid rate, the Jays' 2024 first-round draft pick, Trey Yesavage, has been one of the biggest stories of the entire postseason.Pitching 5.1 no-hit innings and earning a franchise-record 11 strikeouts in a postseason game, Yesavage put up a performance few Blue Jays fans would ever forget.But as much fun as his Game 2 performance in a win over the New York Yankees was for Blue Jays fans, it's hopefully one that the youngster will be able to build off of.
