G. Springer - CF

FA

MLB.com's Jon Morosi reports that the Blue Jays are now the "frontrunners" to sign George Springer.

Morosi also acknowledges that two Twitter users, one a Sportsnet employee, have stated that the Jays and Springer are already in agreement on a deal. This could fully come together within the next 24 hours, and perhaps even late Tuesday night. Springer was also a target of the Mets, but it seems their primary focus has shifted to a long-term contract extension for star shortstop Francisco Lindor, who was acquired from Cleveland earlier this month. Springer, 31, registered an .899 OPS with 14 home runs and 32 RBI over 51 games with the Astros in 2020 and is said to be looking for a free agent contract worth upwards of $150 million.

Z. Grotz - RP

SEA

Red Sox signed RHP Zac Grotz to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Grotz had an ugly 7.30 ERA in 24 2/3 innings of relief with the Mariners between 2019-2020, but he's posted impressive numbers in the upper minors and may have a real shot of claiming a spot in Boston's bullpen.

G. Springer - CF

FA

Sportsnet's Ben Nicholson-Smith hears from a source that George Springer is "impressed" by the Blue Jays.

There are rumors floating around that Springer has a deal in place with the Jays, but no respected reporter is confirming (or even acknowledging) them. That said, Toronto does seem to be emerging as a possible favorite here, with MLB.com's Jon Morosi saying a final decision could come this week. The 31-year-old free agent outfielder is also being pursued by the Mets, though they just had to make a big change in their front office and owner Steve Cohen might be more focused on trying to extend trade acquisition Francisco Lindor. According to Jon Heyman of MLB Network, the price tag on Springer could soar beyond $125 million.

K. Hernández - 2B

LA

According to Jon Heyman of MLB Network, the Mets "were in pretty strong" on free agent utilityman Enrique Hernandez.

But it seems that pursuit was led by former GM Jared Porter, who was fired on Tuesday after a little over a month at the helm. It's unclear whether the Mets remain in touch with Hernandez now that president Sandy Alderson and assistant GM Zack Scott are making the baseball decisions. Heyman notes that the Red Sox have also shown serious interest in Hernandez, who's a fit for a range of clubs thanks to his defensive versatility.

A. Bummer - RP

CWS

Aaron Bummer (biceps) said Tuesday that he is a "full-go" for the start of spring training.

Bummer was limited to nine appearances in 2020 because of a left biceps strain and left biceps nerve issue that kept him out from August 8 to September 23, but he showed well when healthy and projects to serve as a key setup man for the White Sox in 2021 ahead of new closer Liam Hendriks. The 27-year-old boasts a 1.99 ERA and 74 strikeouts over his last 77 innings of work dating back to the beginning of the 2019 season.

A. Santander - RF

BAL

MASN's Roch Kubatko reports that Orioles outfielder Anthony Santander is drawing trade interest.

Kubatko adds to "keep an eye out on the Marlins, who are looking for a right fielder." Santander missed the final three weeks of the already-condensed 2020 regular season because of a right oblique strain, but he registered an impressive .890 OPS with 11 home runs and 32 RBI in 37 games before suffering that injury. As it stands right now, the 26-year-old slugger is under club control in Baltimore through the 2024 campaign.

M. Gonzalez - 3B

FA

According to Mark Feinsand and Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com, the Twins have expressed interest in a reunion with free agent utilityman Marwin Gonzalez.

It's been a very quiet winter so far for Gonzalez, who posted a rough .211/.286/.320 batting line over 53 games (199 plate appearances) last season with Minnesota. He can play all over the diamond defensively, and rates quite well at a couple positions, but his terrific 2017 with the Astros looks like a serious career outlier at this point. And those numbers are marred by the sign-stealing operation that went on that year in Houston.

A. Sánchez - SP

FA

Jon Heyman of MLB Network hears that Anibal Sanchez and Julio Teheran were both throwing "free and easy" during their double showcase on Tuesday in Miami.

Their velocity readings were similar and "respectable," per Heyman's sources, and both pitchers appeared to be in great physical shape. 24 teams were represented at the workout and the expectation is that Sanchez and Teheran could each land a deal in the very near future. Sanchez, 36, stumbled to a 6.62 ERA in 53 innings (11 starts) last season with the Nationals. Teheran, 29, had an awful 10.05 ERA in 31 1/3 innings with the Angels.
