  • Toronto has a win total of 87.5, but has only cleared its preseason win total once in the last six full seasons.
  • Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has an over/under of 33.5 home runs in 2024.

The Toronto Blue Jays have made the playoffs in three of the last four years, finishing with 91 wins in the lone year they missed the dance. And they donโ€™t have a postseason win to show for it.

The Blue Jays hope to change that in 2024, but the American League East isnโ€™t getting any easier based on the latest MLB odds.

Blue Jays Futures Odds

Win Total: 87.5
AL East: +400
AL Pennant: +950
World Series: +2000

Toronto finished third in the AL East with an 89-73 overall record last year.

Major League Baseball odds expect a similar outcome this season, with the Blue Jays priced firmly behind the New York Yankees and Baltimore Orioles in the division.

The Blue Jays have only cleared their win total in one of the last six full seasons, not counting the COVID-shortened campaign in 2020.

  • 2023: 91.5 win total (89 wins)
  • 2022: 92.5 win total (92 wins)
  • 2021: 86.5 win total (91 wins)
  • 2019: 74.5 win total (67 wins)
  • 2018: 81.5 win total (73 wins)
  • 2017: 85.5 win total (76 wins)

Blue Jays Offseason Moves

The unfounded rumor about Shohei Ohtani flying to Toronto was about as exciting as the offseason got for the Blue Jays.

The pursuit of Ohtani was real, but the Blue Jays were no match for the Los Angeles Dodgers. Toronto did bring in a designated hitter this offseason, signing Turner to a one-year, $13 million contract.

Turner, 39, hit .276 with 23 home runs and 96 RBI in 146 games for the Boston Red Sox last year. He will slot in the middle of the lineup, but the Blue Jays need internal offensive improvements.

Blue Jays 2024 Betting Prediction

Prediction: Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to record over 33.5 home runs (-105)

Perhaps this is wishful thinking, as baseball is better when Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is mashing home runs.

But the Blue Jays slugger is due for a bounce-back campaign.

Since leading the league with 48 blasts in 2021, Guerrero has yet to clear this mark. He hit 32 homers in 2022 and 26 in 2023.

But the cover athlete on this year’s MLB The Show is coming off a spring where he hit three homers in 41 at-bats. I think his power will come back in a big way in 2024.
