Poor baserunning judgment by Bill Maxwell in the 9th cost the Jays the chance to tie the game and they lost, 3-2, to the Red Sox.

WAIVER TRADE

To ATHLETICS

Dave Henderson (TOR retains small piece of his contract)
Bubba Cook

To BLUE JAYS

Pure money saving move. The stumbling block would be if someone claimed Cook off waivers.

rpriske · 11-03-2024, 07:58 AM

August 9th, 1992

The first place Tigers walloped the Blue Jays, winning 9-1.

Even worse, the tired and battered Jays took another blow as Ricardo Gonzalez twisted his ankle and will likely need a few days off.
