Overview
- ESPN’s Jorge Castillo predicted that Kyle Tucker will choose Toronto, framing the Blue Jays as a leading destination during the winter meetings.
- Multiple reports say a Tucker signing would likely end Bo Bichette’s tenure in Toronto, with Boston mentioned as a potential landing spot by Bob Nightengale.
- Tucker was reported to have visited the Blue Jays’ Dunedin facility, and his market is projected in the $300 million‑plus range, with one estimate at 10 years and $401 million.
- Coverage stresses that Toronto is unlikely to sign both Tucker and Bichette, forcing a priority decision between two nine‑figure free agents.
- Recent spending by Rogers Communications on Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Dylan Cease is cited as evidence of capacity to bid, with future relief expected when George Springer’s deal expires and Kevin Gausman’s salary comes off the books.
