[McDaniel] The Dodgers have traded Dylan Campbell to the Phillies in a trade that includes international bonus pool space, per source...Campbell is an OF that was the 136th overall pick in the 2023 draft from the University of Texas. He hit 10 homers and stole 42 bases last year in High-A.

[Giunta] I do not know what is happening but I am Under the impression there is something coming. Johnny sources has never lied or been wrong. Will this make the Sasaki thing feel better? No, fuck no actually.

[BNS] Blue Jays fans deserve better than this. So many exhausting near-misses & the resulting team just isn’t good enough.

[Passan] I’m sorry, Toronto.

[Chisholm] The way the last 14 months have played out is just cruel and unusual punishment to #BlueJays fans. I'm not sure I've ever seen anything quite like it.

He’s a Dodger

[Heyman] The Jays are doing whatever they can to aid their chances at pitching phenom Roki Sasaki. They’ve gone from long shot to real threat. Not saying they are getting him but they have real shot. Sasaki clearly isn’t about money but the extra $2M in bonus $ here doesn’t hurt either

[Mitchell] Keep holding on tight y’all.

[Davidi & BNS] According to FanGraphs’ Roster Resource, the Straw deal pushes the Blue Jays past the first CBT threshold of $241 million to $245 million.

[Matheson] This is an extremely aggressive move from the #BlueJays to position themselves in the Sasaki pursuit, which is exactly what they should be doing. Myles Straw is still due $13.8M over the next two years with a 2027 buyout of $1.75M, but nothing else matters if they land Sasaki.

[Davidi] The Blue Jays are getting $2m in bonus pool money, per two industry sources. Deal does not mean Roki Sasaki had made up his mind or given them an indication that he's made a decision.

[Davidi] Hearing the Blue Jays are working to acquire additional international bonus pool room as they await Roki Sasaki’s decision. Doesn’t mean a decision has been made. To be expected from all finalists for the right-hander, so they’re ready for all possibilities.

[Romero] Hearing from multiple sources that the Padres are out in Roki Sasaki. They will begin their international signings of Jhoan De La Cruz and Carlos Alvarez in the next few hours.

[Martino] The Mets made what they perceived as a last-ditch effort to sign Pete Alonso by offering him a three-year contract in the $68 million to $70 million range

“Today's Tokyo edition, Roki Sasaki (23), who is aiming to transfer to the majors from Lotte via the posting system, is set to decide on his transfer destination on the 16th (today).”

[BNS] With Sasaki's decision hanging in the balance, do you think Blue Jays execs are chatting to reporters about how they’ll maybe trade away their franchise player? If you're reading about the Mets & Vlad Jr., there's really one team it could have come from

[Hector] What I'm hearing from the #BlueJays: - They have an offer out to third baseman Alex Bregman. - Their interest is very real in Pete Alonso. - The #Mets did call about Vladdy Jr. but the Jays have not interest in making any move with Vladdy Jr. involved.

Report: Blue Jays offered Vladimir Guerrero Jr., three contracts, including one with “a whole lot of deferred money”

[BNS] Blue Jays are actively negotiating an extension with Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and he's the most important hitter in their lineup so the recent NYM trade speculation feels like wishful thinking on the part of the Mets (and possibly an attempt to gain leverage on Pete Alonso).

[Nightengale] If the Blue Jays sign Pete Alonso, Vladimir Guerrero could return back to third base while giving the Blue Jays insurance if Guerrero departs as a free agent after the 2025 season. They have no intention of trading Guerrero now.

[Martino] The Mets have pivoted to plan B, post-Alonso. They now consider it the most likely outcome that Alonso will sign elsewhere. They add Winker and will add a reliever, possibly a top one.

[Feinsand] Is Sasaki really just a two team race??
