Are you missing all the fireworks from the 2025 season? Well MLB.com just listed the longest home runs of the season for each of the 30 teams and for the Toronto Blue Jays, their top five is a wonderful trip down memory lane of some absolute nukes the group had over the course of their 162 games.

Interestingly enough, three of their top five came in the same series, as the Blue Jays took advantage of the mile high altitude in Colorado.

Blue Jays' longest homers of 2025 are an absolute treat to watch

The Blue Jays' top five is actually a top six as they had two players who hit home runs that went the exact same distance to start out the list. Tied for the fifth spot are Addison Barger and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. who both sent shots a distance of 448 feet.

Barger's came on Jul. 13 in Sacramento when the Blue Jays were playing the Athletics in the middle of an agonizingly hot weekend on the West Coast. It was a two-run home run, Barger's 13th home run of the season, coming off Jeffrey Springs in the top of the seventh. It had an exit velocity of 107.9, the 12th hardest home run Barger hit all season.

Almost a month early was when Guerrero hit his blast. This one came at home, on Jun. 17 in a game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. In the bottom of the third inning, Vladdy drove a 112.1 mph ball 448 feet off a four-seam fastball from Brandon Pfaadt. It was Guerrero's ninth home run of the season in a game the Blue Jays wound up winning 5-4 thanks to back-to-back home runs in the bottom of the ninth from Bo Bichette to tie the game and the very next batter, Barger, hit the game winning home run.

The next longest home run of the season came off the bat of George Springer on Sept. 9, a 449 foot bomb against his former team, the Houston Astros. With the Blue Jays playing in front of the home crowd at Rogers Centre, Springer smacked his 28th home run of the season of Enyel De Los Santos in the bottom of the sixth. It was a 114 mph home run off a four-seam fastball that got the Blue Jays on the board, in a game they would eventually win on a walk-off RBI single from Tyler Heineman.

At No. 3 is Daulton Varsho's first of two home runs on the list. Varsho was hurt to begin the year, returned to the team on Apr. 29 and was back on the shelf on May 31. He returned on Aug. 1 and three days later he hit his first home run since May 26 and it was a long one. He hit a high fly ball deep into the Denver night off a Tanner Gordon changeup that went 451 feet. It was a three-run home run that put the Blue Jays up 5-0 en route to a 15-1.

Two days later, Davis Schneider added his name to the longest homers list with the Blue Jays already up 16-1 over the Rockies in the ninth inning on Aug. 6. Schneider's three-run home run was his second of the game and it went 454 feet off a 52.7 mph curveball, thrown by Rockies catcher Austin Nola who was in for mop up duty. It was Schneider's seventh of the season, coming in the same inning in which they plated eight runs. The Blue Jays won this game 20-1 to sweep the series against the Rockies by a combined score of 45-6.

The longest home run of the season also came in that series in Colorado, in the middle game of that three-game set. It belonged to Varsho who smashed a ball 467 feet that hit the upper deck at Coors Field. That's some real power shown by Varsho who sent the ball 115 feet high at a 33 degree launch angle off Anthony Molina. It was the second of the night for Varsho and his 11th of the season, a two-run home run that put Toronto ahead 7-2 in a game they won 10-4. This series turned into the ultimate stat padding series for the Blue Jays and maybe no one took advantage more than Varsho.
