It's down to the Dodgers, Padres and Blue Jays in the race for 23-year-old Japanese pitching phenom Sasaki. This could be an inflection point for the Toronto franchise.

Alex Bregman has fielded some serious interest from the Detroit Tigers and the Boston Red Sox, both of whom could use his bat as well as his defensive prowess. One other top team to keep an eye on would be the Toronto Blue Jays, who just met with Roki Sasaki.

The Blue Jays are swinging big … again. Japanese star Roki Sasaki met with the Blue Jays in Toronto last week, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic (subscription required) reported Monday, making them the eighth team known to have met with the 23-year-old.
