It was a perfect fit. Indeed, with Shane Bieber, Cody Ponce, José Berríos, and Max Scherzer on the injured list, Corbin has been a key addition for the Blue Jays in 2026. His 38.1 inni...9126Fri, 22 May 2026 10:54:02 +0000https://diamondcentric.net/news-rumors/jays-centre/daulton-varsho-hasnt-become-a-worse-hitter-just-a-different-one-r9113/The Blue Jays have been searching for a defining moment all season. Between injuries, underperformance from key veterans, and their position in the AL East slipping quickly, the club desperately needed a spark.

I'll admit I was skeptical at the time. I thought it was a phantom IL stint. After all, Berríos was never hurt. Never. All of a sudden, shortly after the team moved hi...9103Thu, 21 May 2026 14:33:49 +0000https://diamondcentric.net/news-rumors/jays-centre/2025-draft-class-check-in-jojo-parker-r9101/JoJo Parker generated plenty of buzz during spring training, resulting in lofty expectations out of the gate.

The Blue Jays catcher made two errors and let the Yankees steal five bases. He was well off the mark in his only ABS challenge of the game. His called strike rate on pitches in the shadow zone was uncharacteristically poor.
