As the season progresses, the Blue Jays aim to build on their strengths and address areas of inconsistency. 

The 2025 Toronto Blue Jays season has been a rollercoaster of highs and lows, with the team currently holding a 28–28 record. Despite challenges, including injuries and roster changes, the Blue Jays remain in contention, showcasing resilience and potential as they navigate the competitive AL East division.

🔹 Season Overview: A Tale of Two Halves

The Blue Jays have experienced both triumphant victories and tough losses. Notably, they secured a dominant 12–0 win against the Oakland Athletics on May 29, highlighted by Ernie Clement's five RBIs and José Berríos' six scoreless innings.  However, consistency has been elusive, with the team alternating between winning streaks and slumps.

🔹 Offensive Standouts

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. continues to be a cornerstone of the Blue Jays' offense, leading the team with a .279 batting average and eight home runs. Bo Bichette has also been instrumental, topping the team with 30 RBIs and 65 hits.

🔹 Pitching Performance

On the mound, Kevin Gausman leads with five wins, while Chris Bassitt boasts a team-best 3.38 ERA. José Berríos has been a strikeout leader with 65 Ks. The bullpen has seen contributions from Jeff Hoffman, who leads with 12 saves, and Brendon Little, who has nine holds. 

🔹 Roster Moves and Injuries

The Blue Jays made a significant offseason move by signing outfielder Anthony Santander to a five-year, $92.5 million deal, aiming to bolster their lineup.  However, the pitching staff faced a setback with Max Scherzer's placement on the 60-day injured list due to a thumb injury. In response, the team is reportedly exploring trade options to fill the void. 

Looking Ahead

As the season progresses, the Blue Jays aim to build on their strengths and address areas of inconsistency. With key players performing well and potential roster enhancements on the horizon, the team remains poised to make a push in the standings.
