8 Blue Jays players who won't be back in 2025

As both fans and players of the Toronto Blue Jays sit at home watching this year's playoffs, there's a whole lot of reflection going on surrounding this team. There's not a whole lot of positive takeaways from the 2024 regular season and if upper management keeps giving press conferences like the one they had on Wednesday, it'll be a while before there's any hope for a turnaround.

Now that all is said and done for these Blue Jays, it's fair to say that things didn't go as expected for them this year. Armed with an offense that was supposed to consist of George Springer, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette all producing at the same time; paired with one of the top starting rotations in baseball - this club was supposed to go somewhere this season.

Ultimately, the only place they went was from out of contention, to sellers at the trade deadline, to the very bottom of the AL East. They spent the vast majority of the second half of the season in last place, failing to ever fully catch up to either the Rays or the Red Sox in the standings.

During the upcoming offseason, there's going to be a lot of changes made, and it'll be interesting to see which route Mark Shapiro, Ross Atkins and Co. end up going. There's sure to be a ton of players from this year's roster not returning and being replaced by some new blood, perhaps in the form of multiple free agents.

Let's focus on the players who have already played their last game on the Blue Jays. Their respective time on the roster has come to an end and it's time for their roster spot to be upgraded. It remains to be seen how the Blue Jays go about this, but there are multiple avenues the following players could be moved by; whether it's in the form of a trade or simply a non-tender.

Le's dive in.
