Much has been made of Toronto’s fearsome offence this year, and rightly so, but how does this lineup compare historically? Is it one of the best all-time? Well, let’s quickly discount “best all-time”. It’s not even close really. Actually, even “one of the best all-time” is quite a stretch as well. What is roughly accurate, however, is “top 20 of the post-war era”. That doesn’t sound nearly as impressive but if you think about it, it’s still quite an achievement. Out of the roughly 2000 teams that have competed from 1946 on, these 2015 Blue Jays are in the top 1 percentile offensively.
