Baltimore Orioles star outfielder Anthony Santander has been closely linked to the Toronto Blue Jays this winter.

Baltimore Orioles star outfielder Anthony Santander may sign a massive contract with a different American League contender.

Anthony Santander, who is coming off an All-Star campaign with the Orioles in 2024, is seemingly in talks with the Blue Jays about a potential deal.

The Blue Jays have been tied to Anthony Santander as much as any team in recent weeks. While there’s still no agreement in place, Shi Davidi and Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet report that the Jays’ talks with the free agent slugger “picked up” this morning.

The Baltimore Orioles star Anthony Santander has recently caught the AL East team's attention as the MLB offseason heats up.

For the Orioles, who have already increased spending under first-year owner David Rubenstein and have potential extensions for some of their young stars to consider, a long-term commitment to a player such as Santander might not have fit their plans. But a shorter-term deal, while forcing some creative roster adjustments, might make more sense.

It seemed apparent that the outfield was the most significant need for the Royals this offseason. Yet, they've done nothing. Santander could help.

Much like free agent first baseman Pete Alonso, the market has moved slowly for Anthony Santander, who is yet to be signed despite showing his prowess last year with 44 dingers.

Sure, the Blue Jays need to sign someone, lest they risk angering superstar Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and dissuading him from re-signing with the club. But there's another switch-hitter on the open market that might make just as much sense for Toronto as Santander does.

The Toronto Blue Jays are making progress with free agent outfielder Anthony Santander, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports. Earlier in the offseason, KPRC's Ari Alexander reported that the Blue Jays extended an offer to Santander, but the Los Angeles Angels and Detroit Tigers were also interested in the switch-hitter.

One of the biggest names that's left in the hot stove is former Baltimore Orioles right fielder Anthony Santander.

Some top free agents are reportedly open to short-term deals similar to the ones signed by the "Boras Four" last year. Read more at MLBTR.
