[2] The team won the Division Series with home-field advantage against the fourth seed New York Yankees, victors of the Wild Card Series over archrival Boston Red Sox earning the team their first American League Championship Series appearance since 2016.

The Blue Jays began the 2025 season at home against the Baltimore Orioles, splitting a four-game series with one of their AL East rivals. [3] Offseason acquisition Max Scherzer was injured in his start on March 29, and was placed on the injured list. [4] The Washington Nationals were swept by the Jays in the next series, with Easton Lucas taking Scherzer's rotation spot and pitching five scoreless innings in the finale. [5] Traveling to Queens for their first road trip of 2025, the Blue Jays were swept by the New York Mets over a three-game series. [6]
On April 7, the Blue Jays signed Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to a 14-year, $500 million contract extension. The extension is the largest contract in franchise history, eclipsing the six-year, $150 million contract issued to George Springer, and is the second-largest contract in MLB history in present-day value and the highest for a one-team professional athlete in any team sport. [7] Heading to Boston, Toronto nearly swept the Boston Red Sox before falling in extra innings in the final game of the series. After the game, manager John Schneider criticized home plate umpire Manny Gonzalez, saying "It's tough to battle nine hitters and an umpire... I've got all the respect in the world for them, but it wasn't a great day for him behind the plate." [8] To close their road trip, the Blue Jays went to Baltimore. The first game of the series was rained out (and was made up as a doubleheader in late July), and the teams split the other two games of the series. [9]
The Blue Jays began June by concluding a four-game sweep of the Athletics at home. [10] They followed that by winning two of three from the Philadelphia Phillies at home. [11] Next, they won two of three against the Minnesota Twins at Target Field. [12] The Blue Jays followed that up by sweeping the St. Louis Cardinals in a three-game set on the road, resulting in their 12th win in 14 games and brought their record to 38–30. [13]
From June 30 to July 3, the Blue Jays won all four games against the New York Yankees at home and by doing so, overtook them for first place in the AL East. [14] On July 21, the Blue Jays set a franchise record by winning their 11th straight game at home, beating the Yankees in the first game of another three-game set against them. [15]
The Blue Jays then traded for relief pitcher Seranthony Domínguez from the Baltimore Orioles, starting pitcher Shane Bieber from the Cleveland Guardians, and Louis Varland and Ty France from the Minnesota Twins before the trade deadline. The Blue Jays traded away Will Wagner.
On August 6, the Blue Jays set another franchise record and the MLB record by recording 63 hits in a three-game series against the Colorado Rockies in Coors Field and also established a franchise mark with 45 runs in the three-game set. [16]
The Blue Jays clinched the postseason on September 21 after beating the Kansas City Royals in Kauffman Stadium. [1] The Blue Jays continued their poor run of form in late September allowing the New York Yankees to tie the Blue Jays' win total, with the Blue Jays remaining the division leader due to the season series tiebreaker as the Blue Jays have a head-to-head record of 8–5 over the Yankees. Following a subsequent sweep of the Tampa Bay Rays, the Blue Jays clinched the Division Title in front of a home crowd on the last game of the regular season, despite having a tied overall record with the Yankees.
