Blue Jays' Anthony Santander: Agrees to deal with TorontoJanuary 20, 2025 | 09:30 AM

The Blue Jays have agreed to a contract with Santander, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports. Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston says it's a five-year deal with an opt-out after 2028 season that can be voided if a 2030 club option is exercised. It's a much-needed "win" for Toronto, as it has been in the running to sign numerous big free agents the last couple years but routinely has come up short. Santander is coming off a 2024 season which saw him slash .235/.308/.506 with 44 home runs, 91 runs and 102 RBI in 155 regular-season games with the Orioles. He will likely see plenty of starts both in left field and in the designated hitter slot.
