Kyle Schwarber in Toronto?
There are rumours.
The Blue Jays are one of the teams checking in on Kyle Schwarber, who is represented by Excel Sports Management, who also represents Freddie Freeman, sources tell ESPN.

Blue Jays are making a big push for star free agent OF/DH Kyle Schwarber, who’s very popular off an outstanding season in a market where teams suddenly need extra hitters. Many teams have been trying but Toronto is among the frontrunners.

Matt Chapman in Tampa Bay?
The Rays would love to get it.
In #Rays efforts to add a RH hitter to what they consider an already good team, they are shopping for now among some top-shelf options, with interest in A’s 3B Matt Chapman and free agent OF Seiya Suzuki among others.

Besides, speaking of the Rays, Kevin Kiermaier would no longer be on the market.
I’m told the #Phillies are officially out on Kiermaier.
Unlike he gets traded, period. But if he does, he won’t be to Philadelphia. https://t.co/iYAsveIjBU

Andrew McCutchen in Milwaukee
It will help energize the training.
my guy @DanielAlvarezEE was on the deal for McCutchen, who will bring some offense to a Brewers team that already has elite pitching.
