Toronto Blue Jays catcher Alejandro Kirk is spending the offseason with his family after a strong 2026 season.
Kirk finished with a .278/.351/.415 slash line, 10 home runs and 43 RBI in 79 games.
The Blue Jays slumped around him, finishing 79-83 and fifth in the American League East. Now, deservedly, he is enjoying a good break during the offseason. His latest celebration: Halloween.
First stop was a celebration with Jarritos. Kirk, in partnership with them, arranged some decorations. “We’re getting ready to celebrate Halloween & are setting the ofrenda for Día de los Muertos,” the post read.
An ofrenda is an altar that honors deceased relatives during Día de los Muertos, which runs Nov. 1-2.
That was not the only celebration for the 27-year-old catcher.
