Hagen Danner

TOR Relief Pitcher #65

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Blue Jays designated RHP Hagen Danner for assignment.

The Jays needed to free up a spot on their 40-man roster for Josh Walker on Friday and unfortunately Danner was the odd-man out this time around. The 26-year-old hurler spent the majority of the 2024 season at Triple-A Buffalo where he posted a 3.06 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and a 36/13 K/BB ratio over 35 1/3 innings. There’s a possibility that he could pique another team’s interest on waivers.
Josh Walker

TOR Relief Pitcher #91

Blue Jays signed LHP Josh Walker to a one-year, $760,000 contract.

The Blue Jays wanted to make sure they got the 30-year-old southpaw, so they gave him a guaranteed one-year deal at the league minimum instead of a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training. Walker has struggled mightily during his time in the big leagues with the Mets over the past two seasons, registering a 6.45 ERA, 1.66 WHIP and a 23/12 K/BB ratio over 22 1/3 innings of work. Expect him to find a spot in the club’s Opening Day bullpen.
Eric Pardinho

TOR Starting Pitcher #97

Blue Jays re-signed RHP Eric Pardinho to a minor league contract.

The 23-year-old former top prospect split his 2024 season between Double-A New Hampshire and Triple-A Buffalo where he compiled a 3.25 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and a 66/28 K/BB ratio across 55 1/3 innings of work. There’s a good chance that he breaks through to the big leagues for the first time and works out of the Jays’ bullpen at some point during the 2025 season.
Ali Sanchez

TOR Catcher #47

Blue Jays signed C Ali Sánchez to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Sánchez fortifies Toronto’s catching situation heading into next season after getting into a career-high 31 contests last year for the Marlins, batting .167 (14-for-84) with two stolen bases. The 27-year-old backstop is merely emergency organizational depth behind Alejandro Kirk entering the 2025 campaign.
Bobby Milacki

TOR Relief Pitcher

Blue Jays signed RHP Bobby Milacki to a minor league contract.

Some minor league relief depth. Milacki, 28, had a 4.75 ERA and a 49/13 K/BB in 55 innings in the Padres system last season; he excelled at Double-A San Antonio, but he gave up 13 runs over nine innings in his stint at Triple-A El Paso.
Alex Bregman

FA Third Baseman #2

Astros’ general manager Dana Brown told reporters on Friday that the team is still pursuing a reunion with third baseman Alex Bregman, though they face strong competition.

Ari Alexander of KPRC2 in Houston notes that the Yankees, Mets and Red Sox are all involved in the bidding, while the Tigers and Blue Jays are believed to be in the mix as well. With that much interest — including from some of the biggest market clubs in all of baseball — it looks increasingly likely that Bregman will wind up with a deal in the neighborhood of $200 million. The Astros are known to have offered a six-year pact worth around $156 million and may wind up getting priced out here if things get too crazy.
Nick Raposo

TOR Catcher #70

Blue Jays designated C Nick Raposo for assignment.

Raposo was claimed off of waivers from the Cardinals in early August. The 26-year-old backstop had a rough season offensively at the Triple-A level, slashing a woeful .206/.280/.340 with just eight homers, 33 RBI and a 59/25 K/BB ratio in 280 plate appearances. There’s a decent chance that he passes through waivers unclaimed and continues to function as extra catching depth for the Jays.
Yimi Garcia

TOR Relief Pitcher #93

Blue Jays signed RHP Yimi Garcia to a two-year, $15 million contract.

The 34-year-old right-hander returns to the Jays where he functioned as one of the better setup men in the American League from 2022-2024 before he was dealt to the Mariners at last season’s trade deadline. He should return to a high-leverage role in front of Chad Green or whoever else the Blue Jays plan to bring in to work in the ninth inning.
Anthony Santander

FA Right Fielder #25

According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, free agent outfielder Anthony Santander is seeking a five-year contract.

The switch-hitting slugger is one of the top outfielders remaining on the free agent market following Juan Soto signing his historic deal with the Mets, so expect some of the teams that missed out on Soto to pivot in his direction. Heyman notes that the Blue Jays have made him a priority while the Yankees and Red Sox are believed to be in the mix as well. A return to the Orioles could be possible as well, so there appears to be a strong likelihood that Santander remains in the American League East.
Eric Lauer

TOR Starting Pitcher #75

Blue Jays signed LHP Eric Lauer to a minor league contract and invited him to spring training.

The 29-year-old southpaw was released by the Astros in early August and latched on with the Kia Tigers in the Korea Baseball Organization where he went on to spin 34 2/3 innings of 4.93 ERA, 1.36 WHIP baseball with a 37/12 K/BB ratio across seven starts. Lauer had plenty of success with the Brewers at the big league level in 2021 and 2022, so the Jays are hoping that he can return to that form. Either way, you can never have enough pitching and Lauer makes for a quality depth addition.
