We may have a Cinderella story on our hands north of the border.
George Springer had two homers and four RBIs and the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the visiting New York Yankees 8-5 Thursday night to complete a four-game series sweep.

The Yanks got mopped away in Toronto and potentially lost a starting pitcher. What a week.
If you followed this series closely, replay a lot of the bitter disappointment experienced in the previous three games and you’ll get a decent picture of yet another frustrating loss. George Springer was the star of the evening with a pair of two-run shots, and to make matters worse, Clarke Schmidt got hurt in the process, leaving this one early with forearm...
New York Yankees starting pitcher Clarke Schmidt was lifted after just three innings on Thursday.
New York Yankees starting pitcher Clarke Schmidt was removed after three innings of his start in Toronto Thursday evening due to right forearm tightness.

Ominous news from one of the Yankees’ better starters in 2025.
Clarke Schmidt saw his Thursday night on the mound cut short, leaving the game after three innings with what was reported as right forearm tightness. When it comes to updates regarding a pitcher leaving a game, that’s easily among the most worrisome ones.
This news comes as a tough blow, particularly considering how effective Schmidt has been this season, easily one of the best...

The Yanks’ mission tonight is simple: avoid a four-game sweep in Toronto and retake the AL East lead.
The Yankees will put the fallacy that things can’t get any worse to the test as they attempt to avoid getting swept in a four-game set north of the border. This is a foreign concept to a New York team that’s been in control of the AL East for virtually the whole season. That’s a thing of the past given their recent skid, paired with productive...
The New York Yankees have been looking for an answer at third base over the past few years.
The New York Yankees signed veteran infielder Nicky Lopez to a minor league deal, FanSided reported Thursday. The Yankees had previously designated infielder CJ Alexander for assignment, and the Los Angeles Dodgers claimed him off waivers from New York earlier Thursday.
Right-hander Colten Brewer has opted out of his minor league deal with the Yankees, reports MLBTR’s Steve Adams. He was on the temporarily inactive list in recent days due to his wife giving birth.

Jumping through hoops from 3000 miles away.
We’re in the stretch of the second-most miserable times in my personal baseball calendar. I’m not talking about how the Yankees have cooled off through June and the first day of July, but rather, playing baseball games against the only Canadian team. The fastest possible car trip from my house to the Rogers Centre would take 40 hours, the fastest possible train trip 52, the cheapest flight $510.

The Cubs lead a surprisingly fun divisional race on the backs of breakout stars.
Every day, Pinstripe Alley offers updates on what the Yankees’ top American League opponents are up to through the Rivalry Roundup. The AL East is well-trodden ground there, but with about half of the regular season complete, we’re going to take a peek around MLB as a whole and check in with each of the other five divisions. Who’s surprising? Who’s underwhelming? Who’s...

The Chicago White Sox are, once again, sellers at this year’s deadline.
Not surprisingly, the Chicago White Sox enter the trade deadline as sellers. Coming off a historically bad season in 2024, they began the year as the consensus worst team in the American League, with all 18 writers here at Pinstripe Alley slotting them in the basement of the AL Central during our preseason predictions, and a plurality expecting them to repeat as the worst team in...
As the 2024 offseason made way, it was clear that the New York Yankees had one big priority. That priority was Juan Soto. However, after Soto’s jersey was swapped, the Yankees quickly needed to fill in 1st base.

The Yankees, Blue Jays, and Rays are all separated by a half-game in total for first place in the division.
Well, that was excruciating. The Blue Jays’ first five batters yesterday all reached and scored, and after Toronto pulled ahead 8-0 early, it was easy to write off the game as a Will Warren disaster class to push the Jays into a first-place tie. But the Yankees had to lift our hopes up with a huge midgame rally to even the score at 9-9 on a...

Stroman threw his best start of the season after returning from a two-and-a-half month injury layoff.
The June swoon has carried over into July for the Yankees, an embarrassing trio of losses to the Blue Jays giving away the outright lead in the division for the first time since April 13th. This poor play against Toronto means we have to go back to Sunday to find a performance worthy of mention in Sequence of the Week, and Marcus Stroman more...

Is the crew going under today, or is there a lifeboat laying around?
The inevitable has happened. The Yankees’ prolonged slide from June into July has finally culminated in one of their rivals catching them in the AL East, as the Blue Jays took their third straight over the Bombers to enter a tie for first place. Technically speaking, the Jays have the tie-breaker thanks to head-to-head record, so for the first time since late April the Yankees...

Max Fried and Carlos Rodón have helped lead the charge for an incredible season for lefty pitchers; the former Yankee who helped start the use of video in coaching; Jazz Chisholm Jr. willing to do whatever despite struggles at third base.
Opta Analyst | Zach Crizer: His most recent start excluded, Max Fried has been excellent for the Yankees in 2025. Meanwhile, Carlos Rodón is in the midst of his best season as a Yankee so far. The two are among the...
