Two staples in the Toronto Blue Jays lineup earned some recognition last night.

First baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. was named to the All-MLB First Team last night, the third time in his career he has been named to the prestigious list. Bo Bichette also earned recognition last night, slotting in at shortstop for the All-MLB Second Team.

Guerrero finished the 2025 campaign with a 3.4 fWAR, ranked sixth in the big leagues among first basemen, and produced a 137 wRC+ on the year. His final slash line would come in at .292/.381/.467 with 23 home runs, 84 RBIs, and an .848 OPS, earning his fifth consecutive All-Star nod.

The Montreal-born product continued this strong season into the playoffs, where he collected 29 hits through 95 at-bats (.397) and collected eight home runs, 15 RBIs, 14 walks, and a 1.289 OPS. He also made numerous defensive highlights at first base, which helped keep the Blue Jays in the postseason hunt before falling to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the World Series.

Bichette earns his first-ever Second Team honour after an impressive bounce-back campaign in 2025.

Despite missing a good portion of September with a knee injury, Bichette finished the season with 181 hits, just three behind Bobby Witt Jr. for the AL/MLB lead, and 44 doubles, again just three behind the Royals’ First-Team shortstop. Bichette would amass a .311/.357/.483 slash line on the season, while also adding 18 home runs, an .840 OPS, and a team-leading 94 RBIs.

In the postseason, Bichette returned for the World Series and collected eight hits and six RBIs, including a monster three-run home run off Shohei Ohtani in Game 7 of the World Series. He missed the first two series because of the knee injury and had to slot over to second base during the postseason run.

The Blue Jays shortstop is now a free agent for the first time in his career.
