MLB Trade Deadline Showdown: Which Blockbuster Moves Will Yankees, Dodgers, Cubs, and Astros Risk to Dominate the Season?

Of course, the Blue Jays will probably run into the same issue as Chicago in their search for such an arm. Alcantara could also make sense for Toronto, though the Blue Jays don’t have quite as many high-end prospects to offer, and Miami will likely need to be swayed into selling low on Sandy. Perhaps Toronto is a more sensible trade partner for someone such as Pittsburgh’s Mitch Keller, a younger pitcher under team control that the Jays could build around after Bassitt and Gausman hit free agency. Miami’s Edward Cabrera would also be an ideal target for similar reasons, and he’s arguably a better bet to help right away than Alcantara, who needs some immediate fixing. Beefing up the bullpen or adding a rental stopgap starter would also be an acceptable outcome for the Blue Jays, but it’d be awesome to see them shoot for something bigger, considering the circumstances.
