Timeline
Michael Samuel Wilner (born March 14, 1970) is a Canadian former baseball broadcaster for the Toronto Blue Jays.
Wilner began his broadcasting career at the University of Toronto in 1988, and was named sports director there a year later.
During his tenure at the University of Toronto, Wilner did play-by-play for various sports including hockey, basketball, and football.
Wilner began his professional broadcasting career at the age of 19 with the Class-A Welland Pirates.
He later did play-by-play for various baseball teams including the Class-A Watertown Indians, and the Double-A Hardware City Rock Cats.
He graduated from the University of Toronto in 1994.
, Wilner has been a baseball columnist for the Toronto Star.
During the 2010 Winter Olympics, Wilner hosted 2010 Winter Games Today in Vancouver with David Alter from Whistler, British Columbia.
On June 1, 2010, Mike Wilner got into an argument during a media scrum with the Toronto Blue Jays manager Cito Gaston about Gaston's field level decision making.
Wilner detailed the confrontation on his blog.
A day later his employer, the Fan 590 announced Wilner would not be covering the team for several days, presumably a suspension though the Fan 590 refused to state the reason.
Because Rogers Communications, owners of the Toronto Blue Jays, also owns the Fan 590, the suspension had at least the appearance of a case of media censorship.
The Toronto Chapter of the Baseball Writers' Association of America issued a letter of protest suggesting the suspension was an attempt by the Blue Jays to muzzle media criticism.
The controversy received coverage in all three of Toronto's daily newspapers, largely in sympathy with Wilner.
From 2014 through 2020, he called play-by-play for the Blue Jays' radio broadcasts, and authored a blog on Sportsnet.ca/590.
He formerly hosted a postgame radio call-in show called BlueJaysTalk on the Fan 590.
From 2014 to 2017, Wilner performed play-by-play duties for select innings of all Toronto Blue Jays home games.
In 2018, following the retirement of longtime Blue Jays play-by-play commentator Jerry Howarth, Wilner called most Blue Jays games with Ben Wagner.
He officially became the full-time radio play-by-play announcer with Wagner prior to the 2019 season.
That same year, he was replaced by Scott MacArthur as host of the BlueJaysTalk radio show.
Wilner continued as the Blue Jays play-by-play announcer through the 2020 season.
However, on November 27, 2020, Sportsnet announced that Wilner would not return to the position in 2021, with no reason being given.
For his part, Wilner did not elaborate on any reasons behind the decision, commenting only "Dreams can come true, even though they don't always last as long as you'd like them to."
On February 11, 2021, Wilner announced that he had become a baseball columnist for the Toronto Star.
Wilner's work for the Toronto Star also includes hosting a weekly baseball-themed podcast, titled Deep Left Field, where he interviews various guests.
Wilner is of Jewish descent.
His brother, Norman Wilner, is a former film critic for Now who joined the programming team for the Toronto International Film Festival in 2022.
Wilner is divorced, and together with his ex-wife from Buenos Aires, Argentina, they have two daughters and he resides in Mississauga.
