Tyler Chatwood and the Jays hit it off

The Toronto Blue Jays and free agent pitcher Tyler Chatwood agree on the terms of a contract.

The right-handed pitcher, who has spent the last three seasons with the Cubs organization, is expected to serve in the box.

Obviously, just because Chatwood isn’t a top-tier free agent doesn’t mean you have to criticize his signing. It takes, lifters …

It will cost three million dollars. A good performance could push his total salary to $ 5.5 million.

But that’s obviously not what the team’s fans had in mind. They don’t expect a George Springer anymore and that’s to be expected.

In this regard, we learned today that the file could be closed this week. The Jays do elsewhere a big push to sign it.

But back to Chatwood.

Injured in 2020, he did not have the chance to show off and he did not perform very well. That said, if he regains his health, he could make the difference in the pen.

He is therefore the second signing, besides Robbie Ray, to engage with the Jays. The team can afford it, which is over $ 100 million in luxury tax.

When is the big signing now?
