The Blue Jays are slated to meet with Tarik Skubal’s agents.

Toronto’s payroll has doubled over the last five years, jumping into the top five in the league the last two. The Jays will need to go far higher still to land Skubal, but they did gain some room with the long-term deals of Kevin Gausman and George Springer now off the books. Skubal is also currently slated to meet with the Mets, Dodgers and Padres.
