They enter the AL side of the playoffs bracket with the #1 spot, giving them a bye as well as the most home field advantages. The Blue Jays will face the winner of the Yankees vs Red Sox 3-game Wild Card Series (Tues - Thurs). The Blue Jays play their first 2025 playoff game Saturday, October 4th, kicking of the 5-game ALDS.
Looking back on the regular season, what stands out to you? Who would you rather face in the ALDS: Yankees or Red Sox? All discussion welcome (even if you're not a Jays fan :) @9488fcea02a9@sh.itjust.works
Probably just how much Kirk's offensive game has improved.
He was always an OK hitter, but this season, and especially the second half, he has been on fire.
Looking back, extending him before the start of the year seems like a great move by the FO, because his extension would be a lot higher after this year. Kirk's fun to root for. I love his post-HR celebration with Vladdy too
