The Toronto Blue Jays are reported to be one of two finalists to sign All-Star Japanese starting pitcher Roki Sasaki.

The Toronto Blue Jays announced this morning that they have traded for centre fielder Myles Straw from the Cleveland Guardians.

The reigning champion Dodgers and Blue Jays are the final teams standing from a pool that included the Yankees, Mets, Cubs, Rangers and Giants — with the Padres being taken out of the equation on Friday, according to Francys Romero.

Prized Japanese pitcher Roki Sasaki says in an Instagram post he intends to sign with the World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers.

The Dodgers look like a team set up for success for the foreseeable future, with a lineup that includes Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, Teoscar Hernández and two-way star Ohtani. Sasaki could join a starting rotation that includes Ohtani, Yamamoto, two-time Cy Young award winner Blake Snell, Tyler Glasnow and Tony Gonsolin.

The Toronto Blue Jays finally landed a high-profile free agent, adding Anthony Santander to their powerful lineup.

With spring training fast approaching, it’s that time of the year for fresh prospect rankings. On Wednesday, ESPN’s Kiley McDaniel released this season’s Top 100 prospects list, headlined by the Los Angeles Dodgers’ Roki Sasaki (because of course) at No.

MLB teams have coveted Roki Sasaki since he broke Shohei Ohtani's Japanese high school record by reaching 101 mph with his fastball as a 17-year-old in 2019, part of a 194-pitch, 12-inning, 21-strikeout complete game in the national summer Koshien tournament.
