Wild pitches are inevitable, even for the sport’s control artists. The odd pitch is going to go far enough off-course for the pitcher to be hit with a wild pitch.
Most of the Toronto Blue Jays pitchers with the most wild pitches had excellent careers with the franchise. Some were involved in playoff runs, while others had to endure losing seasons when Blue Jays odds to win the division were long.
