"MLB insider Jon Heyman reported on MLB Network that he believes Tucker will make his decision before the weekend. Originally, numerous reports stated that Tucker would choose his team as early as Thursday. Heyman stated that the finalists are the Toronto Blue Jays, NY Mets, and LA Dodgers and would be surprised if it's anyone other than those three teams."
""A lot of people thought it was going to be [Thursday], and it could still be," said Heyman. "It probably won't go into the weekend." The longtime reporter also noted that he believes Toronto could be Tucker's preferred destination. "Some of [Tucker's] friends from the Cubs and Astros suggest they would think he would prefer to go to a place that's a little bit less intense, a little bit smaller. He might prefer Toronto. That's a guess, and 'prefer' doesn't mean he's taking it.""
Kyle Tucker is weighing offers from the Toronto Blue Jays, New York Mets and Los Angeles Dodgers. MLB insider Jon Heyman said he expects Tucker to decide before the weekend and would be surprised if the choice is outside those three teams. Heyman suggested that friends from the Cubs and Astros think Tucker might prefer a less intense, smaller market and that Toronto could be that preference. Reports say the Mets may offer a three-to-four-year deal with a $50 million average annual value, while Jeff Passan indicated the Blue Jays might be the only team willing to offer up to 10 years. A decision is likely imminent.
