The Toronto Blue Jays are among the MLB franchises anticipated to make significant moves in the offseason to strengthen their roster. Among the players rumored to potentially join the organization in 2026 is Kyle Tucker.

According to a report from USA Today’s Bob Nightengale, the Blue Jays’ interest in Tucker could result in Bo Bichette’s departure. Nightengale noted that if this scenario unfolds, Bichette might be headed to the Boston Red Sox for the next MLB season.

While the prospect of Bichette leaving the Blue Jays seems unlikely, Tucker’s arrival could necessitate changes in the team’s roster to accommodate the former Chicago Cubs player in 2025.

The uncertainty surrounding the Blue Jays’ potential acquisitions for the 2026 season is mounting, especially after they came close to winning the title last season, falling to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the World Series.
