The Toronto Blue Jays were named Canada's Team of the Year for 2025 after a remarkable rise to the World Series.

The Toronto Blue Jays were named The Canadian Press Team of the Year for 2025 after a stunning worst-to-first season, culminating in a Game 7 World Series appearance—their first since 1993. Despite a slow start and injuries, including the loss of shortstop Bo Bichette, the team surged after signing Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to a 14-year, $500-million extension and acquiring pitcher Shane Bieber at the trade deadline. They won the American League East, advanced through the playoffs with resilience, and sparked nationwide excitement. The Blue Jays earned 29 of 53 votes in the CP poll, outpacing Canada’s women’s curling and rugby teams. The honor marks the franchise’s sixth win in the award’s 59-year history.
