Losing a World Series can eat at players for days, months and probably longer. For the Toronto Blue Jays, they will be thinking about their World Series Game 7 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers last Saturday for a long time. But regardless of the outcome of the Blue Jays' 2025 campaign, infielder Davis Schneider will always treasure that season.

"I love this team," Schneider wrote in a heartfelt social media post on Instagram. "The people in this organization are some of the greatest humans I ever known. I loved coming to the park everyday and sharing this stupid kids game with all people I get to call my best friends. 

The 26-year-old Schneider also showed plenty of love for his teammates and everyone on the Blue Jays team. 

"Such selfless group of rag tag dudes who love just playing baseball with each other at the highest level. Not the outcome we wanted or hoped for but man what a year. I love every single guy in that clubhouse. We went to work each day and gave it our all. 

The fans, the city, the whole entire country made this year special and I’m forever grateful to play for a fan base that embodies what a true fan base is all about. I’m so lucky to play for this city and for Canada. I’m proud to be a Blue Jay."

Schneider only hit .200 through seven games in the World Series, but he had a memorable home run in Game 5.

His first-inning blast off Dodgers starter Blake Snell at Dodger Stadium opened the floodgates for Toronto's offense, as the Blue Jays took that game, 6-1, to gain a 3-2 series lead.

It's a long offseason for Schneider and the Blue Jays, who will look to regroup and find ways to improve the team for the 2026 MLB season.

The same can be said of Schneider, who's still far from a polished product in his big league career. In just his his third season in MLB, Schneider hit just 234..361/.436 with a pedestrian .797 OPS, though, he also posted a 119 OPS+ through 82 games.
