"Doyle played with the Jays for four seasons, or, more accurately, two full seasons and two half seasons. As a Jay, he was 46-26 with a 3.56 ERA in 106 games and 103 starts. The Jays signed him as a free agent on June 21, 1983, about a month after the Yankees released him. When the Yankees let him go, he had a 0-2 record with a 6.35 ERA in 8 games. He was 1-7 the season before with a 6.08 ERA in 16 starts."
"In 1984, Doyle had his best season of his career, going 17-6 with a 3.13 ERA in 36 games, including 11 complete games. He even got some MVP votes that year. He only struck out 139 batters in 261.2 innings, but got the outs when needed. 1985 was the first time we made the playoffs, and Doyle was a significant contributor to our success."
