MLB Free Agency Shakeup 2025-26: Kyle Schwarber Surges Into Top 3, Outshining Stars Kyle Tucker and Alex Bregman—What’s Driving the Dramatic Rise?
19. Shane Bieber (opt-out), Blue Jays SP, age 32 (NR)
The 2020 AL Cy Young winner has yet to appear in a big-league game this year as he works his way back from reconstructive elbow surgery. That didn’t stop Toronto from acquiring him at the deadline in hopes that Bieber can contribute to the division-leading Jays down the stretch. He has made four minor-league rehab starts over the past few weeks and will make a fifth this weekend. Given the lengthy layoff, Bieber is a total mystery box. But if he makes seven starts for the Jays and looks like Shane Bieber, he’ll opt out and get paid. Worse pitchers have made money off less.
