Ace, the sole mascot of the Toronto Blue Jays since 2004, became the official mascot after Diamond was removed before the season began. His jersey number is double zero. A second blue jay mascot, Junior, is present on “Junior Jays days” when children are invited to run the bases after games.
An MLB mascot can make anywhere from $450 to $2000 per game, with Wally the Green Monster from the Boston Red Sox having the highest per-game salary. Mascots usually start out working in the minor leagues, earning around $25,000 per year. However, once they make it to the ranks of a mascot for an NFL, NBA, MLB, or NHL franchise, the average annual salary for an MLB mascot is around $60,000.
The tradition in Major League Baseball mascots began with Mr. Ace, who is the single most Poochie-est, rad!/let’s skateboard/90s cartoon promo mascot in all of sports. The Toronto Blue Jays’ mascots include DJ Birdy, Ace, and Diamond, which are one of the most popular mascots in baseball.
The dual nature of the gryphon (upper body of an eagle, lower body of a lion) symbolizes the dual nature of ACE as a charter school. The average annual salary for an MLB mascot is around $60,000, which may be enough to consider a career change.
The new moose cost $700 to make, while the Jay cost $250 to $300, as it set precedent and made other performers look inaccurately standoffish.
