Baseball’s annual winter meetings begin Sunday in Nashville, and the top storyline to follow is the pursuit of superstar free agent Shohei Ohtani.
The market for Ohtani appears to have narrowed down to the Dodgers, Angels, Cubs, and perhaps the Giants, with the Rangers, Red Sox, and Mets reportedly bowing out. However, a longtime MLB insider reports that a surprise team is emerging as a potential suitor.
The Blue Jays are a late entry to the competition for Ohtani, according to the New York Post’s Jon Heyman. It’s unclear whether or not the two-time American League MVP will visit Toronto to meet with the team, but the Jays have supposedly heard that he’s enjoyed playing there.
