Overview
- Buster Olney said Toronto has the highest money range on the table for Kyle Tucker and predicted the Blue Jays land either Tucker or Bo Bichette.
- Multiple outlets reported the Blue Jays have reached an agreement with Kazuma Okamoto posted from Japan, a move that could alter Toronto’s calculus for Tucker or Bichette.
- The Dodgers remain a credible suitor for Tucker, with insiders floating a shorter-term, high–AAV structure as a possible path.
- The Yankees have formally offered Cody Bellinger, with league voices pointing to the Dodgers as their chief competition, and New York has checked on Bichette as a fallback.
- The Mets are also linked to Tucker as projections peg his price in the $300 million–plus range, contributing to a slower, negotiation-heavy market.
