The Domincan Summer League Blue Jays won the Boca Chica Baseball City Division title with a record of 45-27. Their season ended on August 25th when the lost the second game of a 3 game series, 2-1 to the DSL Astros. This was one of the best DSL seasons for the Blue Jays in recent memory, but I’ll admit that I don’t pay close attention to prospects until Vancouver.

The Astros swept the Jays in 2 games, losing game one 3-1 and game two 2-1.

Here’s a month to month break of how they ended up with such a good record.

June– 16-10

July– 16-10

August– 13-6 (not including their two playoff losses)

Unlike the GCL Blue Jays, who had a couple long win streaks, the DSL Jays used a bunch of 4-game win streaks to build up their win totals. They never lost more than 2 games in a row. The biggest margin of victory came against the DSL Padres on July 1st with a 12-1 win. The most runs scored also came against the Padres, when they scored 15 run on August 17th.

Ahead, we take a look at how the young roster performed and which Blue Jays prospects helped to kickstart their development as members of the DSL Blue Jays.
