Bit of #BlueJays minutiae: Wilmer Font has elected free agency. Jays designated him last week after he posted a 9.92 ERA over 21 games.

Charlie Montoyo tells us Teoscar Hernandez is hitting off a tee today, which is fantastic news.
Also, Rowdy Tellez is riding a bike, a positive sign for a guy with a strained tendon in his knee. #Bluejays
Mike Harrington

With Gerrit Cole pitching Saturday and Masahiro Tanaka on Sunday, both in Baltimore, that means neither will be on the mound for #Yankees in series vs. #Bluejays that opens Monday in Sahlen Field. (Barring rainouts)

Outfielder Alberto Rodriguez is the PTBNL going to the Mariners in the Taijuan Walker trade per #BlueJays

@bnicholsonsmith
Rodriguez, 19, spent last year with the Blue Jays' Gulf Coast League (rookie level) affiliate. He hit .301/.364/.422 with two homers and 13 steals in 47 games.

The #BlueJays send RHP Kendall Williams to the Dodgers as one of the two PTBNL in the Ross Stripling deal.

Kendall Williams, 20, was the #BlueJays 2nd-round pick in 2019.
He's ranked as Toronto's No. 13 prospect by @MLBPipeline. Lots of upside to Williams and plenty of physical projection at 6-foot-6.

OFFICIAL: We’ve acquired RHP @RossStripling from the Dodgers for 2 players to be named later.
Welcome to the #BlueJays, Ross!

The Rockies are acquiring Kevin Pillar and cash from the Red Sox in exchange for a PTBNL and 2019-20 international slot money, per source.

Shi mentions on Blue Jays Central that the Jays are still looking to add to the rotation and infield. Says Toronto has kept in touch with the Pirates (Trevor Williams?).

@JeffPassan
The Oakland A's have acquired left-hander Mike Minor from the Texas Rangers for two players to be named later, sources tell ESPN. A's needed rotation help and get it with a trade for Minor, who's a free agent after this season.

The Padres do not have a deal for Mike Clevinger at this time.
Jon Heyman
@JonHeyman
This has been the hot rumor. Padres are determined to add a starter and have been the most aggressive team so it would make sense but a lot of teams want Clevinger.

Several rival teams who were involved in the Mike Clevinger trade talks believe that he's headed to the #Padres, confirming report by
