The Toronto Blue Jays are making a splash in the MLB free agent market, pursuing outfielder Kyle Tucker, shortstop Bo Bichette, and now third baseman Alex Bregman. The Jays are reportedly one of the most aggressive teams in the hunt for Bregman, along with the Diamondbacks and potentially a reunion with the Red Sox. This comes as the Jays look to rebuild their infield and outfield after a challenging season. Fans are excited about the unexpected linkup, with Bregman not previously on their radar. The Jays may need to replace Bichette if he leaves, with Ernie Clement potentially shifting to shortstop or second base. Signing both infield stars could work if Tucker signs elsewhere. The situation is currently just speculation, but the Jays have been linked to several big names already. Checkout Solipillow.com
