The '''2009 [[Las Vegas 51s]] [[Las Vegas 51s seasons|season]]''' will be the franchise's 27th year of existence and first as the top minor league affiliate of the [[Toronto Blue Jays]]. It will involve the 51s attempting to win the Pacific Conference - South Division and improve on their 74-69 record and 2nd place finish. The 51s will attempt to have consecutive winning season for the first time since the 2002 and 2003 seasons. The 2009 season will be Las Vegas' final season with the 51s moniker, as the new owners of the team plan to change the team's name before the 2010 season.<ref>Dewey, Todd.

The 51s would eventually sign a two-year PDC with the [[Toronto Blue Jays]]. Toronto became Las Vegas' third major league affiliate in the club's 27 year history and the 51s became Toronto's only the second Triple-A affiliate in the Blue Jays 33 years of existence.<ref>Dewey, Todd.

On October 8, 2008, the Toronto Blue Jays named [[Mike Basso]] as the 51s manager for the 2009 season. Basso becomes the 19th manager in the club's history. Basso replaces [[Lorenzo Bundy]] who had a 141-146 record in two seasons. Basso had played for the Las Vegas Stars over 4 seasons (1988, 1990, 1992-93). Basso had previously managed Toronto's High Single-A affiliate, the [[Dunedin Blue Jays]] in 2003 recording a 78-62 record and leading Dunedin to the [[Florida State League]] Finals. Basso would then coach Toronto's previous Triple-A affiliate in 2006, recording a 64-79 and a sixth place finish. Before being appointed as Las Vegas' manager, Basso had spent 2007 and 2008 as Toronto's Coordinator of Instruction for the club's minor league system.<ref>Dewey, Todd.

On January 16, 2009, the [[Iowa Cubs]] announced that their August 9th game against the 51s would be played at [[Wrigley Field]] in [[Chicago, Illinois]]; home of their major league affiliate, the [[Chicago Cubs]].

The Cubs organization uses the annual game to promote their minor league affiliates, while the Cubs are playing out of town. The first EDition saw Chicago's Single-A affiliate, the [[Peoria Chiefs]] play the [[Kane County Cougars]] ([[Oakland Athletics]] affiliate) in front of nearly 26,000 fans.<ref>Muskat, Carrie.
