Why the Blue Jays shouldn't be willing to match this proposed Kyle Tucker signing

The Toronto Blue Jays' signing of Dylan Cease was a huge moment for many reasons, but his contract marks the second time in less than a year that the franchise has handed out a $200 million agreement.

With Bo Bichette reportedly pushing for a deal in that range this offseason, it's a huge question mark if the reigning AL pennant winners can afford three deals of that magnitude. Which is exactly why Toronto needs to avoid getting too deep into the Kyle Tucker sweepstakes.

In Jim Bowden's latest piece previewing the Winter Meetings for The Athletic, he predicts that Tucker will earn a 10-year, $427 million contract from the New York Yankees.
