Blue Jays Rely on Bichette, Minors for Turnaround

The Toronto Blue Jays are off to a mediocre start in their 2025 MLB season, with a 23-24 record that places them third in the American League East. Bo Bichette has been a bright spot, ranking among league leaders in hits and batting .294 over his last 20 games. In the minors, Alan Roden has rebounded in Triple-A Buffalo, hitting .386 and improving his defense to re-enter roster consideration. Double-A outfielder Yohendrick Pinango is also making waves with a .350 average and increased power, possibly earning a promotion soon. The team's depth in the minor leagues provides hope as injured players come back and others strive to improve. Additionally, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's NBA MVP win has become a major talking point in Toronto's sports scene.
