The Toronto Blue Jays have issued a statement saying that right fielder Anthony Santander's anti-Muslim social media posts do not reflect the organization's values. The Major League Baseball club responded to the controversy on Friday, November 6, 2026, making clear that the player's views are his own and not representative of the team.
Santander, who plays right field for the Blue Jays, came under scrutiny for posts deemed anti-Muslim. The team's statement emphasizes a commitment to inclusion and respect, separating the franchise from the player's personal expressions on social media platforms.
