Blue Jays Video
It was reported earlier that the Blue Jays were interested in acquiring Astros' reliever Ryan Pressly ($$).
Now it's being reported that Pressly, who has a no-trade clause, will not waive for a team on either coast.
This effectively eliminates the Blue Jays from acquiring two-time All Star. This news comes roughly a week after losing out on the Tanner Scott sweepstakes and, as of right now, the team hasn't been tied to any other reliever via trade or on the open market.
From the perspective of the bullpen, this has been a disappointing offseason for the Jays who had arguably the worst relief corpse in baseball a year ago. While it's encouraging to hear them getting involved in high end relievers, it means very little if they can't close the deal.
Who should they target next whether it be via free agency or trade?
