The Boston Red Sox bolstered their rotation with the additions of Sonny Gray and Ranger Suárez, along with a premium bat in Willson Contreras. As well, the New York Yankees traded for Ryan Weathers and re-signed star outfielder Cody Bellinger. But it's the Baltimore Orioles that have significantly revamped their disappointing roster from 2025 so far by recruiting Shane Baz, Ryan Helsley, Zach Eflin, Taylor Ward and of course star slugger Pete Alonso.

The Blue Jays could opt to simply bring back (Bo) Bichette -- especially given his willingness to shift to second base -- but landing Tucker's lefty bat to pair with Vladimir Guerrero Jr. could be an even more impactful move. Tucker's rare combination of skills would be a boon to Toronto's title hopes, and his arrival would establish without a doubt the Blue Jays' status as a franchise that can attract (and land) elite talent.
