According to Joel Sherman of the New York Post, the Blue Jays have “grown more aggressive” in their efforts to try and deal J.A. Happ and Tyler Clippard. Sherman also adds that while the market may have grown crowded over the last week, the Jays are still trying to trade assets, with the two aforementioned pitchers and John Axford the most prominent.
As Sherman covers primarily the Yankees, who have appeared to be the frontrunners for Happ, this report is notable and can be taken seriously for all intents and purposes.
