Jose Berrios has been moved to the bullpen for the Toronto Blue Jays, and the veteran starter certainly isn't happy with the team's decision.

With Bo Bichette and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. leading the way, the Toronto Blue Jays are closing in on their first trip to the MLB playoffs the 2023 season. This is how things stand entering play on Saturday, Sept. 20:

A postseason spot is sitting right in front of the Blue Jays, begging them to reach out and complete the long-obvious formality. They’re suddenly taking their time, though, dragging this through yet another night and into yet another day.

Friday was an absolute disaster all around for the Blue Jays in what was their worst loss of 2025, but Tyler Heineman reached an even greater low.

The Toronto Blue Jays face the Kansas City Royals on Friday, Sept. 19, 2025 (9/19/25) in a regular season MLB game at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.

Rookie struck out nine in first start but will need Toronto’s offence to heat up after scoring only three times during club’s four-game losing streak.

On the AL side, the Guardians will have a chance to sweep their three-game set against the Tigers on Thursday. Cleveland still has a chance to win the AL Central, sitting 4 1/2 games behind Detroit, and it is similarly just 2 1/2 games back for the AL’s final wild-card spot.

The Blue Jays can certainly compete with the best of the best, but some circumstances are more unfavorable towards them than others.

The American League-leading Toronto Blue Jays placed right-hander Chris Bassitt on the 15-day injured list on Saturday due to low back inflammation with hope that he will return in the postseason. The move is retroactive to Friday.
