MLB Analyst Issues Verdict as Blue Jays Join Baseball’s Richest Tier While Targeting Kyle Tucker and Edwin Díaz
Kyle Tucker visited the Blue Jays' Dunedin facility as Toronto aims to add a top free agent to a lineup already featuring stars like Vladimir Guerrero Jr.
- At the Blue Jays' Dunedin complex, Kyle Tucker, a top free-agent outfielder, was reported to have visited by Robert Murray on Wednesday.
- The Toronto Blue Jays' general manager, Ross Atkins, hosted free-agent Kyle Tucker, a top market target, at their Dunedin facility on Wednesday, according to sources.
- Tucker's track record bolsters his market case with a.274/.353/.516 line, 125 homers, two Silver Sluggers, one Gold Glove, four All-Star nods, and projections near $400 million, ESPN's Kiley McDaniel says.
- The visit signals a serious push but stops short of a near-deal, as the Toronto Blue Jays balance pursuing Kyle Tucker with retaining Bo Bichette and adding relievers Pete Fairbanks and Brad Keller.
- Signing Tucker would immediately upgrade Toronto's lineup by boosting Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and George Springer's offense, while Edward Rogers signals ownership will keep spending amid lineup challenges.
