Blue Jays Face Pivotal 2025 Season with Guerrero and Bichette's Futures Uncertain

Toronto's playoff push could determine whether the team retains its star duo or initiates a major roster overhaul by midseason.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette, both nearing free agency, are central to the Blue Jays' 2025 strategy and future identity.
Guerrero Jr. rejected a record-setting extension offer, expressing interest in testing free agency despite his desire to remain in Toronto.
The Blue Jays' playoff odds are slim, with FanGraphs projecting an 82-80 record and a 38.2% chance of postseason contention.
If Toronto struggles early, Guerrero and Bichette could become high-profile trade candidates, with potential suitors already speculated for both players.
Offseason additions like Max Scherzer, Anthony Santander, and Andrés Giménez aim to address team weaknesses, but concerns remain about pitching depth and player performance rebounds.
