Former Toronto Blue Jays players Teoscar Hernandez is currently a highly sought after free agent this winter and has made it clear on exactly how much he is expecting to sign for with his new contract.
The Blue Jays have shown a lot of interest in Hernandez over the last week but it looks like he is still focused on trying to return to the Los Angeles Dodgers in which manager Dave Roberts stated yesterday that they are approaching a deal.

Teoscar Hernández is seeking a 3 year, $22-$24 million annual contract per Mark Feinsand.
Blue Jays fans were quick to point out that Toronto could easily afford a three year $75 million contract for Hernandez and that signing him for that much would be extremely worth it.

When looking at the numbers Hernandez put up last season with a career high 33 homeruns along with 99 RBIs, .272 batting average and .339 on base percentage, it is clear he is worth the money.
Hernandez would be a perfect fit for the Blue Jays as they are in need of bringing in an offensive threat for next season to pair with Vladimir Guerrero Jr and could also benefit from having another outfielder.
Hopefully the Blue Jays are able to outbid the Dodgers as it looks like that will be the only way they land Hernandez.
