To hit for the Saint Cycle, a player must only sacrifice themselves in every plate appearance. They cannot be glorified with a hit, and in each trip to the plate, they must be saintly in a new way.

I don't want to. You can't end it better than I did last year. I had a great time last year. It was an absolute blast and honor to be on that team. I think that was the perfect way to end it. Honestly, I don't know if I would have enough in the tank to pitch for a full season again. I'm really at peace with that decision.

Legendary Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Devon White will headline this year's induction class into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum. The class will also include former national team mainstay and current St. Louis Cardinals coach Stubby Clapp, former Women's National Team star Katie Psota, and former Montreal Expos pitcher and executive Bill Stoneman.

Timlin was drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays in the fifth round in 1987 out of Southwestern University. He made his big league debut in 1991, appearing in 63 games (three starts) and pitching to a 3.16 ERA and a 1.329 WHIP across 108 1/3 innings. He appeared in four games in the ALCS series against the Minnesota Twins that season and finished sixth in Rookie of the Year voting.

It's a statue that should've been built a long time ago. Carter spent seven of his 16 big league seasons with the Jays, helping the team win the World Series in both 1992 and 1993. With the Blue Jays down 8-6 in the ninth inning of Game 6 of the 1993 World Series, Carter stepped up to the plate with two runners on.

I love being here. I'm from Southern California. I've had a great time with fans. You guys treat me great. Everyone's treating my family good....I'm not worried about another contract, not going to bring it up, not going to talk about it. I got two years left. I'm just an employee. I just do my job, and if they want me back, they want me back. But I think Andrew [president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman] and everyone knows that I love being here.

Mets legend David Wright's Hall-of-Fame credentials had been pretty cut and dry. When healthy, he was on a fast track to Cooperstown, but spinal stenosis derailed his career during his age-32 season in 2015, relegating him to one of the more prominent what ifs? in recent baseball history. Yet the Baseball Writers' Association of America (BBWAA) appears to be taking his entire journey, and just how good he was during his peak years, into consideration, which surprisingly bodes well for potential enshrinement down the road.

It's time one of the all-time greats of the Toronto Blue Jays franchise got his flowers. Carlos Delgado is a Hall of Famer, no doubt about it. But for whatever reason the voters just keep making the same mistakes and not bestowing said honor on Delgado. However, after Tuesday night's Hall of Fame vote, perhaps there is now finally a pathway and a willingness to right this wrong.

"David's contributions to the game of hockey will continue to impact the game for generations. The entire league mourns the loss of a great leader and visionary who oversaw the growth and evolution of the Ontario Hockey League, always prioritizing the players and putting their experience first."
