  1. Mark Feinsand @Feinsand The Mets continue to be engaged with Trevor Bauer, while the Dodgers are also still in the mix, per sources. With camps set to open in two weeks, a resolution could come soon. Barring the entrance of a mystery team, these appear to be the finalists.
  2. Jon Heyman @JonHeyman Mets are engaged with Trevor Bauer. They expect to hear something — one way or another — in the next 24 hours or so. Situation is fluid but there’s hope. @ByRobertMurray tweeted that the sides are talking.
  3. Andy Martino @martinonyc There is a lot of talk in the industry right now that Trevor Bauer and the Mets are quite serious. Neither player nor team side is confirming anything. Reporter has his spidey sense tingling tho. That's all I have for you for now.
  4. Rob Longley @longleysunsport #Bluejays GM Ross Atkins on spring training plans starting next week: "We're prepared to start spring training on time and prepared and excited to start the season on time." First spring training game is slated for Feb. 27.
  5. Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith On a Zoom call with Toronto-based media, Ross Atkins said #BlueJays’ efforts to add are ongoing. “There hasn’t been a pause button … there may be another add, or two.” Asked about major-league deals for free agents, Atkins said there “certainly could be the potential for them.” Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith Asked about the #BlueJays' off-season to date, Atkins said: "I can't imagine better fits than George Springer and Marcus Semien on the position player side." Also added Jays are "really excited about the pitching acquisitions (they) have made." Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith One of those pitchers, Steven Matz, will have the chance to break camp in the #BlueJays' starting rotation. No guarantees of a starting job, though. "We'll see," Atkins said. "He'll have to earn that."
  6. MLB Trade Rumors @mlbtraderumors Cubs Agree To Minor League Deals With Rex Brothers, Joe Biagini https://mlbtraderumors.com/2021/02/cubs-sign-rex-brothers-joe-biagini-nick-martini.html
  7. Sportsnet @Sportsnet The Blue Jays are promoting Casey Candaele to manager of triple-A Buffalo and bringing back Cesar Martin as manager of double-A New Hampshire, sources tell @ShiDavidi. https://t.co/GWwqEppD1W?amp=1
  8. Sportsnet @Sportsnet As the Blue Jays weigh their pitching options — to target upside or prioritize stability — Flag of Canada James Paxton and Taijuan Walker are among those currently under consideration. (via @bnicholsonsmith and @ShiDavidi) https://t.co/JoipcOvtLW?amp=1
  9. Jon Morosi @jonmorosi Kolten Wong and the #Brewers have agreed to terms on a multiyear contract, source says. @Ken_Rosenthal was first to report the teams were in serious talks. @MLB @MLBNetwork
  10. Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal Brewers are in discussions with free-agent second baseman Kolten Wong, sources tell @TheAthletic. Not clear at this point whether a deal is close.
  11. Jon Heyman @JonHeyman Surprise entry in Marcell Ozuna derby is the Rays. Ozuna nearly win the Triple Crown last year, and yes obviously a fantastic hitter, but the lack of a universal DH could be impacting his market to a degree, as well.
  12. Andrew Stoeten @AndrewStoeten Members of the 2017 Astros who went on to be members of the Toronto Blue Jays: George Springer, Teoscar Hernández, Ken Giles, Nori Aoki, Francisco Liriano, David Paulino, Derek Fisher, Tyler Clippard, Dave Hudgens.
  13. Rob Longley @longleysunsport #Bluejays have just agreed to terms with LHP Francisco Liriano, per source. Will be a non roster invitee to training camp. Rob Longley @longleysunsport Former Jays reliever was traded to Astros in the deal that brought Teoscar Hernandez to Toronto.
  14. Scott Mitchell @ScottyMitchTSN #BlueJays have not formally announced 2021 coaching staff just yet, but I’m hearing Dante Bichette won’t have as big of a presence this year, no travel, etc. His decision and he’ll still be around in some sort of advisor role.
  15. Kaitlyn McGrath @kaitlyncmcgrath Marcus Semien said the #BlueJays were one of the first teams to call him and express their interest in signing him. Talks ramped up in late January. As for whether a return to Oakland was on the table, he said “We called them. I’ll leave it at that…" Kaitlyn McGrath @kaitlyncmcgrath Semien said he’s excited to join a young, exciting group of players in Toronto. The FO expressed interest in Semien being in a sort of clubhouse leader role, which is a role he is happy to do. Kaitlyn McGrath @kaitlyncmcgrath As for the position change, Semien said the #BlueJays asked him and he picked second base, if shortstop was unavailable. Mentioned he preferred staying up the middle.
  16. Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith Marcus Semien says he’s looking forward to playing second base for #BlueJays, who were “one of the first teams that called.” Semien says he and his wife love the city of Toronto and are hoping Jays play some games there at some point this year. Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith Marcus Semien sees #BlueJays’ young team as a contender even without expanded playoffs. “Now it’s go-time.” And maybe some more help will arrive, too. “They’re still working on some things, trying to add some pieces.”
  17. Dennis Lin @dennistlin The Padres have added president of baseball operations to A.J. Preller's title and extended his contract through 2026. Erik Greupner, also newly extended through 2026, is now CEO. Preller's previous contract ran through 2022.
  18. Tim and Sid @timandsid Today on #TimandSid... Marcus Semien! The @BlueJays infielder joins us live today on @Sportsnet and @FAN590. We're live at 5 ET / 2 PT.
  19. Jon Morosi @jonmorosi Confirming: @MLB will have 26-man rosters in 2021, except for doubleheaders, when the limit expands to 27. @MLBNetwork
  20. Mark Feinsand @Feinsand In the final deal, the Rockies will send $51 million to the Cardinals to pay down Arenado’s salary, per source. The majority of that will be due after Arenado’s two opt-out clauses have passed -- assuming he hasn’t opted out of his contract.
  21. Bob Nightengale @BNightengale The #MLBPA formally rejects MLB's proposal to start the season a month late, and spring training will begin Feb. 17.
