The Toronto Blue Jays reportedly have an interest in pitcher Mike Fiers, this presumably cannot bode well for their chances to land George Springer.
According to Jon Morosi of the MLB Network, the Blue Jays are exploring the possibility of pursuing free agent pitcher Mike Fiers. This news is very troubling in terms of their pursuit of George Springer seeing Fiers was the whistleblower who exposed the Houston Astros cheating scandal.
