9 h. ago When will Toronto Blue Jays rookie phenom Trey Yesavage pitch next?

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.

Scoring 23 runs over two days, Ortiz was in full-on trolling mode over his hated Yankees rivals."They can bring Jesus back, and they're still going to go to Cancun," Ortiz said on Fox's postgame show. "It's over. It's a wrap, just so you know. This Toronto Blue Jays lineup ain't playing around."Ortiz got the ability to chirp a few old rivals in Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez, both of whom were two of the biggest faces ...
