TORONTO — The players and coaches in the Toronto Blue Jays’ clubhouse are getting used to being buyers ahead of Major League Baseball’s trade deadline.
Toronto holds the third and final wild-card spot in the American League and, with a four-game series starting on Monday against the division-leading Baltimore Orioles, an AL East title is also a possibility.That means the Blue Jays are looking to add rather than subtract before Tuesday’s 6 p.m. ET deadline.
Schneider said that it’s virtually impossible for major leaguers to avoid all the trade news, however. “Every team in contention is trying to add a reliever and then every team in contention is trying to add some level of starting pitching depth,” said Atkins on July 19.
