Looks like they were just under 2.8M tickets for all of 2015, which put them 8th in the MLB (regular season only). That also factors in that they were pretty meh for about 2/3 of the season; basically until they got Price at the deadline. Ticket sales surely picked up after that.

I don't think last year was enough to change the fan dynamic yet. Lots of people got involved, but that playoff run was probably not enough to turn a lot of fans yet. If they come out of the gate strong I think they will get some big numbers again this year, but if they are .500 for a long stretch to start the season, interest will cool again until the pennant race (if the Jays are in it at that point).
