Jays notebook: They must have been playing Guerrero’s song

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. delivered a playoff‑caliber blow for Toronto, blasting a grand slam off Will Warren with the bases loaded to underscore his late‑season timing and postseason poise. He sits at a scorching .833 in the series with a 2.464 OPS after a prior skid, proving his bat can erupt when it matters most.

The Rogers Centre crowd fed the energy as Toronto leaned on depth and discipline, while Trey Yesavage’s unusual high‑arm delivery unsettled New York and Max Fried’s hiccup reinforced the Jays’ offensive approach. One game remains for the Yankees to stave off elimination, but Toronto’s surge feels real and self‑contained.

Which Jays hitter most benefits if Vlad Guerrero Jr. stays hot in the rest of the series?How should Yankees bettors view the next game given Vlad’s performance?What is the key factor behind Yesavage’s impact on the Jays’ late innings?Should we expect Toronto to ride Guerrero Jr. aggressively in the rest of the series?

Blue Jays rookie Trey Yesavage shuts down Yankees in Game 2 - ESPN

ESPN

Toronto rode Trey Yesavage’s 11 strikeouts in a playoff no hitter-like surge, then watched the rookie’s 78-pitch exit spark a furious fan reaction that quickly flipped to ecstasy. The Blue Jays exploded for five home runs, including Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s grand slam, and piled up 23 runs in two games to extend home dominance and seize a commanding ALDS edge over the Yankees.

Given Yesavage's playoff showing, should fantasy managers treat him as a must-own for rest-of-season rosters?With Guerrero Jr and the five Jays homers in game 2, how should analysts price Toronto's lineup for the rest of the series?What adjustments will the Yankees need to make in Game 3 after Fried departs early?How does this performance affect the Jays' bullpen trust and workload going forward?

Jays are winning homer game with Yankees, hit five in Game 2

Yesavage’s no-hit playoff start marks a historic moment as Toronto’s offense overwhelms New York 13-7. Guerrero Jr. delivers the first Blue Jays postseason grand slam; Varsho goes deep twice; Clement and Springer contribute key hits and RBIs. The Jays’ power onslaught over 48 hours racks up monumental distance in homers while the Yankees bullpen melts down, leaving Toronto up 2-0 in the ALDS and ready for a Bronx test.

Given Yesavage's historic playoff start and the Jays' offensive burst, should fantasy managers lean toward Toronto bats over Yankees arms in the remainder of the ALDS?Will Guerrero Jr.'s grand slam alter rest-of-series projections; is he a must-start going forward?What does bullpen volatility mean for Yankees DFS or season-long bets?Which Jays hitters should you prioritize after this offensive spree?
