    Jeff Passan @JeffPassan Right-hander Julio Teheran and the Los Angeles Angels are in agreement on a one-year contract, a source familiar with the deal tells ESPN.

    Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith Shun Yamaguchi, 32, posted a 2.78 ERA in Japan this year. Pitched 181 innings, 194 Ks, 64 walks. Allowed just eight HR – in step with a career-long knack for preventing homers (0.8 HR/9) If #BlueJays add him (@Ken_Rosenthal says he's a target), he'd presumably join rotation mix

    Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal Expectation within industry is Ryu will exceed Bumgarner’s $17M average annual value in deal of at least four years. Two industry people with knowledge of starting-pitching market predict minimum four years, $80M. Teams still in need of starter include #BlueJays; #Angels; #Twins.

    Ryan D @RyanDifrancesco My Korean friend told me that in Korea the general sense of the baseball media is that Ryu will sign with the Jays. Apparently he fees disrespected by the Dodgers lack of financial effort.

    Jon Morosi @jonmorosi Source: #BlueJays believe Hyun-Jin Ryu represents their best chance to sign a major starting pitcher among the available options, but he is not yet close to making a decision. @MLB @MLBNetwork

    Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith Before his deal with the Mets, #BlueJays were talking with Rick Porcello. More than due diligence. There appeared to be a little traction, some mutual interest. Instead Porcello gets to rebuild value with Mets (per @Ken_Rosenthal) while Jays continue pitching search elsewhere.
  7. jerb
    Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal Additions of Porcello, Wacha give #Mets depth to possibly move a starter, perhaps in combination with a high-priced player in his walk year - Lowrie ($9M) or, in a much less likely scenario, Cespedes ($29.5M). Goal would be to address other needs - a young catcher, for example.

    Jon Heyman @JonHeyman Rick Porcello has a 3-year offer but inclination seems to be to fo a 1-year deal and reset. Very dependable pitcher. Has qualified for 11 straight era titles (162 plus innings)

    Jon Morosi @jonmorosi Interest in free agent OF Kole Calhoun is solidifying, with the #BlueJays, #Reds, #Brewers and #Marlins all showing interest, sources say. He’s coming off a career-high 33 HR season with the #Angels. @MLBNetwork @MLB

    Rob Longley @longleysunsport "We need to get back to winning." - #Bluejays president Mark Shapiro making it clear the team "needs to be better" in 2020. More to come from his comments here in San Diego. Rob Longley @longleysunsport Shapiro acknowledged that season-ticket renewals are soft and that he would expect attendance at the Rogers Centre to remain in the 1.7 million range of last season.

    Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith While Mark Shapiro declined to offer specifics on 2020 payroll, #BlueJays president said the team's “positioned extremely well on the business side.” #BlueJays spent as much as $163 million when they were last looking to contend. Next time, “I think the ceiling would be higher" Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith As for 2020, Shapiro said “We will add players and we will get better.” #BlueJays are “not going to spend it just to spend it” but have the flexibility to go beyond 2019 payroll if needed

    Jon Morosi @jonmorosi Source: Free agent reliever Craig Stammen drawing interest from #WhiteSox, #BlueJays, #STLCards, #Padres, among others. @MLBNetwork @MLB

    Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal #WhiteSox’s offer to Wheeler was for MORE than the $118M he will receive from the #Phillies, sources tell The Athletic. As @MarcCarig said, Wheeler’s wife is from New Jersey, and that proximity was an important consideration in his decision.
  15. jerb
    Jeff Passan @JeffPassan Right-hander Zack Wheeler and the Philadelphia Phillies are in agreement on a five-year deal worth more than $100 million, sources tell ESPN.

    Keegan Matheson @KeeganMatheson #BlueJays add RHP Thomas Hatch (No. 30 prospect) and INF Santiago Espinal to 40-man roster. LHP Tim Mayza outrighted to AAA and RHP Justin Shafer DFAd

    Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith Vlad Guerrero Jr. just addressed media to clarify some things about his conditioning Says he has definitely lifted weights before, just not in the DR during the off-season (when he’d do other workouts such as flipping tires). Vlad was ‘a little upset’ by this misunderstanding

    Kaitlyn McGrath @kaitlyncmcgrath So Rowdy Tellez is back in the #BlueJays clubhouse today. Not sure what the move is...

    Rob Longley @longleysunsport Source says Jays worked hard to move Galvis to a contender at deadline. Team was appreciative of his influence on young teammates.
  20. jerb
    Shi Davidi @ShiDavidi #Reds claim shortstop Freddy Galvis off waivers from #BlueJays, per industry source.
  21. jerb
    Scott Mitchell @ScottyMitchTSN Best news possible for Ryan Borucki. He has avoided Tommy John surgery, per source, but he did have a procedure to clean up bone spurs. Done for the season but expected to be ready for spring. #BlueJays

    Rob Longley @longleysunsport Per source: Don't be surprised if Derek Fisher, acquired in the Sanchez-Biagini trade, makes his #Bluejays debut this weekend in Baltimore.
  24. jerb
    Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith Just Fisher coming back to #blueJays per source
  25. jerb
    Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith Cal Stevenson, Biagini, Sanchez all going to Houston per source #BlueJays
