#okamotobluejays #kazokamoto #mlb
The Toronto Blue Jays have signed Kazuma Okamoto to a 4-year 60M contract! Here is my live reaction to the signing and what it means for a Bo Bichette and/or Kyle Tucker signing.

Barger should stay at all costs. We don't want bregman either. Bo, do NOT sign with the red sox or yankees. That would suck.

They are still going for Tucker and package Varsho
Barger is a short stop. He can play second. Play him wherever, they need his bat and arm
Get one more bat and a RELIABLE reliever (so we can DFA Little 🙏🙏)
Mason Miller??
I have to believe that the Jays want Barger to play everyday, so my gut tells me we are out on Tucker. I know a lot of people want Santander on the bench, but they paid a lot for him so no way that happens. It will be Santander Varsho and Barger in the OF with Lukes as the 4th OF. The only way that doesn't happen is if they trade Varsho who has 1 year left on on his contract. Varsho had monster numbers in his half-season last year and is one of the best defensive OFs, so I would not trade him. The bad World Series offensively was not typical of his play in 2025. I would still go after Bo and play him at 2B. I would have Ernie as utility and not hesitate to move him to SS if Jimenez can't produce offensively.
Ernie becomes short stop giminez is out
Me and Jim are on the same wavelink in regards to how we read the situation. I feel more likely about Bo Bichette than I do Kyle Tucker.
Lukes, Berrios, and or Little for Mason Miller.😊
Easy Trade geminez
Pretty happy! Now we need Bo!
I haven't seen any clips of Okamoto playing third or left field. I know he's supposedly done so, but all the clips are first base and batting.
Might work out well in the long run
I dont see KO just at 3b …I think he's gonna platoon ..3b OF 1b …its the BJ way ….
What will be telling is ….Bo and or Tucker ….then there's trades no doubt …I think too fill the cupboard of prospects to keep the pipeline going as we have the next wave 2 to 3 years out
Rogers gonna fill stadium , marketing sales …and more post season revenue …never forget the city of TO is 5th largest in N.America …market is a whole country …Rogers pockets are deep son !
Guess the Jays are serious about getting after it in 2026. Also interesting Jim was not a huge fan of the Cease deal but likes this one. I guess we shall see. Baseball is a crazy game. 😅
Toronto always has to pay more than every other team cuz taxes
Who comes off the 40 man now
Does anyone have options left to play in Buffalo
Mariners front office is so cheap!!! Probably ran out of money 💰 after the Josh Naylor deal! Colt Emerson at 20 years old will be the Mariners Opening Day Third Baseman!
If Santander stinks up spring training and the start of the season then what? He should come back but will he?
That's OK about your vision. I have a vision of ohtani hitting a homerun off of Imai in Houston. Although now I can see ohtani striking out Okamoto.
So if we get Bo back, is there no chance he plays SS with Gimenez his backup?
I’d be suprised if bichette isn’t a Yankee now
