Adam Macko has been mentioned among the top Blue Jays prospects since he came over from Seattle in the 2022 offseason trade that sent Teoscar Hernandez to the Mariners. The 24-year-old has dealt with some minor injuries that have led to him missing time in each of the past three seasons. Last season at triple-A Buffalo, the left-hander compiled a 5.06 ERA and 1.51 WHIP across 18 appearances (10 starts).
Singa Bui's licence to practise law was revoked following a three-hour-long hearing in which the Law Society of Ontario presented more than 2,000 pages of evidence, which she did not contest, that Bui repeatedly dipped into her firm's trust account to steal millions of dollars of client money and even forged bank records in a way that hid the theft.
The Toronto Blue Jays sure came out as a double-winner following the Rule 5 Draft that took place on Wednesday (Dec. 10). Not only did they pick up a promising arm in right-hander Spencer Miles from the San Francisco Giants, the Blue Jays somehow managed to come out of it unscathed, as none of their own top prospects were taken in the draft.
Toronto police say they have linked three cold cases from the 1980s and identified the killer of three women over the span of five years as the same man.

Steve Smith said in a video statement provided by Toronto police Thursday. The three women were killed in separate incidents between 1982 and 1987, Smith said.

Yes, Calle Jarnkrok hadn't played in awhile, and it's not ideal for someone making $2.1 million AAV to be sitting out so much, but that's not Robertson's fault. There's no world where Jarnkrok should be getting minutes over Robertson. The tough part is with the way Berube has the lines made up, Robertson got pushed down to the fourth line, and eventually out of the lineup.
Peel police are seeking the public's help to identify a man in a suspected hate-motivated assault in Mississauga.

The man, without provocation, allegedly yelled at the woman, forcibly removed her hijab and jacket hood, and pushed her to the ground before fleeing into a nearby wooded area, said police.
Darwin knows what cameras look like and how to avoid them. From inside his enclosure, the monkey of Toronto Ikea parking lot fame spots us out of the corner of his eye and bolts under the table. The now 13-year-old Japanese macaque has seen enough of the spotlight to last a lifetime. Darwin was just a baby when he was found in a North York Ikea parking lot in 2012, wearing a diaper and shearling coat, and seized by animal services.

If you take away a little bit of a disastrous start - we won one of our first seven - I've really liked the way we've played. Every team gets injuries. For us personally, going back to 2017, I don't remember - even through our Cup runs and all of that - has this happened to us. There is a lot of money sitting in the stands, but it is encouraging to see the young guys who have come in and filled the gaps for us.
