Happy Monday, everybody. Here’s a look at all the Jays-related rumours and rumblings from yet another lukewarm hotstove weekend. LeMahieu do you think you’re fooling? Have you heard? The Blue Jays have interest in free agent infielder D.J. LeMahieu! “Very real” interest, even, according to
A hard no on Bryant. Guy is not the player he was from the '15-18, especially defensively. He'll be a DH or a first baseman before long, and lord knows we have enough of those types. I also think Hendriks is too much of a control pitcher for the meatgrinder AL East. I feel like facing non-shitty NL Central lineups all the time would inflate those numbers he's amassed for the Cubs. No fucking thanks.
I've talked myself into wanting Bauer. Two legit aces in the rotation alongside Ryu, maybe three before long with Nate Pearson coming. If run prevention is what you're after, hard to argue against signing a Cy-Young winner just coming into his prime seasons. And I don't really give a shit about his personality or politics. It is only because of our internet based world that a ton of these things are even known about people.
Morosi tweets that the Jays had checked in on Bryant but no active talks in weeks. Gotta get that Trololosi bit going again.

Bauer wants his new team to work with him in building his brand. Hopefully that will be enough to put the Jays off any ideas of signing him.
