Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Max Scherzer has said he hopes to be able to play catch in the next few days following a cortisone injection to treat his sore right thumb.

The Toronto Blue Jays recently placed Max Scherzer on the injured list. With his future in doubt, the Blue Jays could sign this former Phillies pitcher.

The Toronto Blue Jays are placing star pitcher Max Scherzer on the 15-day injured list due to inflammation in his right thumb. "Hopefully this kind of resets him and knocks it out," manager John Schneider told reporters regarding Scherzer's persistent thumb issues.

The Toronto Blue Jays will be the first to admit their offseason did not go according to plan. They pursued several big-name free agents (Pete Alonso, Corbin Burnes, Max Fried, Juan Soto, etc.), didn't get any of them,

Andrés Giménez homered and scored three runs, Bowden Francis pitched six innings to win his first start of the season and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Washington Nationals 5-2.

The Nationals have done some things well through their first four games, but not enough things well. Which is why they enter tonight’s contest with a 1-3 record, in search of a win before things really turn upside down on them.

The Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Washington Nationals by a final score of 5-2 on Monday night at Rogers Centre. Improving to 3-2 with the win, Toronto was again led by All-Star second baseman Andres Gimenez who slugged his third home run on the season.
