Ranking the 10 greatest Toronto Blue Jays of all time

10. Jesse Barfield, RF (1981-89)

Barfield’s most-known asset was his arm.

He ranked first in the AL in outfield assists five times during his career, four of which came with Toronto. In 1986, he slugged a major league-best 40 home runs, made his only All-Star game, and collected a Silver Slugger.

The season prior, Barfield helped the Blue Jays to their first postseason appearance, which ended in a seven-game ALCS against Kansas City. He was also a two-time Gold Glover.

Barfield’s time in Toronto came to a close when he was traded to the New York Yankees in 1989.
