What the Blue Jays can learn from two surprise juggernauts in MLB’s playoffs

BlueJaysNation argues that the Toronto Blue Jays should adopt the offensive blueprints of the Tampa Bay Rays and Milwaukee Brewers to rebuild their roster. Following a 2026 season where Toronto finished last in the league in home runs and scored the fewest runs, the outlet suggests looking to lower-payroll postseason contenders rather than mimicking high-spending teams like the Los Angeles Dodgers.

According to the analysis, both the Rays and Brewers succeeded through base running, timely hitting, and manufacturing runs despite ranking in the bottom ten for home runs. The writer contends that Toronto must shift its philosophy toward aggressive baserunning and situational contact rather than depending strictly on extra-base hits.
