Everything You Need to Know About the Toronto Blue Jays

The Blue Jays were Major League Baseball’s second foray into Canada. The Montreal Expos had already played eight seasons when Toronto took to the field for the first time in 1977. The Expos left Canada to become the Washington Nationals in 2005.

However, it was the Blue Jays who were the first of the Canadian clubs to break through the League Championship Series and play in the World Series. This followed three ALCS losses, in 1985, 1989, and 1991. And the team made a habit of it, claiming not only the 1992 World Series but repeating its title a year later, which are to date Toronto’s only World Series appearances.

Toronto has also done well lately, recording winning records five times in the eight years from 2014 to 2021, which included making the playoffs three times and advancing to the ALCS twice, in 2015 and 2016.

In 2021, the Blue Jays went 91-71 to finish fourth in the AL East division standings and missed out on the playoffs by just one game. 2022 saw the Blue Jays finish second in the division rankings with a 92-70 record to qualify for the postseason where they lost to the Seattle Mariners in the Wild Card Series. They made the postseason again in 2023 with a record of 89-73. Unfortunately, they were beaten by the Minnesota Twins in the Wild Card Series.
