Through 21 games, the Toronto Maple Leafs are in a drastically different position than they were a year ago. Toronto has assembled a 9-9-3 record through 21 games, sitting second-last in the Atlantic Division. At the same point last year, despite myriad injuries, the Maple Leafs were off to a 13-6-2 start, en route to capturing the first seed in the division. What a difference a year can make.

The Yankees added Ryan McMahon but saw limited benefit due to Aaron Judge being placed on the IL the same day, resulting in a series loss.

The Pittsburgh Pirates suffered a heavy defeat of 10-1 against the Chicago White Sox after showing no energy in their first game post-All-Star break.

The Yankees made pivotal roster moves this season, successfully acquiring players like Paul Goldschmidt and Max Fried who significantly improved team performance.
