TheToronto Blue Jays In the history of the franchise, only two jersey numbers have been retired. These numbers honor second baseman Roberto Alomar, who wore No. 12, and right-handed pitcher Roy Halladay, who wore No. 32. Alomar's number was officially retired in 2011, while Halladay's was recognized in 2018.

Although Toronto has 11 individuals memorialized on its ‘Level of Excellence,’ only Alomar and Halladay have been afforded the unique honor of having their numbers permanently removed from circulation.

The Level of Excellence showcases the names and, in some instances, the jersey numbers of honorees displayed at the 500 level of the Rogers Centre. The 11 individuals commemorated include: Jose Bautista, Paul Beeston, George Bell, Joe Carter, Tom Cheek, Carlos Delgado, Tony Fernandez, Cito Gaston, Pat Gillick, Roy Halladay, and Dave Stieb.

When considering who might have their number retired next, the leading candidate appears to be current player Vlad Guerrero Jr., with an estimated 18.1% chance (equating to +450 betting odds). Despite his young career, having debuted in 2019 and only playing five seasons, he is already a three-time All-Star and led the American League in home runs and runs scored in 2021.

Following Guerrero on our speculation list is retired player Jose Bautista, who already has a place on the Level of Excellence, with an 11.1% chance of seeing his number retired, reflected in +800 odds. Next is active player Bo Bichette, with a 6.2% likelihood and +1500 odds. Two retired players follow him: Carlos Delgado with a 4.7% chance (+2000 odds) and Vernon Wells with a 3.2% chance (+3000 odds).

Interestingly, the most favored scenario suggests that any 'other' player's number may be retired, boasting a 54.5% chance of occurring and odds of -120.
