The 2023 Toronto Blue Jays season was the franchise's 47th season in Major League Baseball, and 32nd full season (34th overall) at Rogers Centre. They started the season on the road against the St. Louis Cardinals on March 30, and finished the season at home against the Tampa Bay Rays on October 1.
The schedule was revised de-emphasizing divisional play by shifting over twenty games to interleague play. Toronto played each divisional opponent in four series, two home and two away, down from six. Those eight series were added to the interleague schedule where the Blue Jays played each National League team once except for the Philadelphia Phillies, which they played both home and away.
With their victory over the Colorado Rockies on September 1, the Blue Jays became the first team in MLB history to beat every opposing team at least once in a single season.
The Blue Jays clinched a playoff spot in the 2023 postseason on September 30, when the visiting Texas Rangers defeated the Seattle Mariners. The Blue Jays returned to the postseason for the second consecutive season and the third in four years, missing the 2021 postseason by one game. They lost in two games in the American League Wild Card Series to the Minnesota Twins at Target Field.
