AL Wild Card race: Will we see any shake-ups down the stretch?
September baseball is here, meaning we are one month away from the 2023 MLB postseason. The playoff races are in full effect and if fans of these teams battling for the AL Wild Card and NL Wild Card tell you they are not scoreboard-watching, chances are they are lying to you. In the National League, there are still quite a few teams within no more than three games of a Wild Card spot. The American League, however, is different. There is just one team within three games.
MLB rumors: Is Marcus Stroman hurting the Chicago Cubs trade value?
As the MLB trade deadline gets closer and closer (set for Tuesday, August 1, at 6 p.m. Eastern), players will be flying off the market.

The Toronto Blue Jays are due for an offensive breakout
It’s no secret that the American League East is one of the hardest divisions in baseball. All five teams can and are still in contention for a playoff spot.

Toronto Blue Jays: Why Bo Bichette will be the AL hit leader again
Since being called up in 2019, Bo Bichette has proven to the baseball world that he can swing the bat, hitting .307 through the first 319 at-bats in his career. But this was only the start or trailer to what we would see through the next two seasons.
