The Toronto Blue Jays and St Louis Cardinals might be in trade between as the Blue Jays are in the market for some pitchers such as Sonny Gray and Ryan Helsley.
The Cardinals seems to be in a bit of a retooling phase and will be listening to trade offers on pretty much all of their players, especially the older ones such as Sonny Gray and Ryan Helsley.
The Blue Jays could be an interesting trade partner for the St Louis Cardinals
The Blue Jays clearly need help in terms of pitchers and insider Ben Nicholson-Smith believes they could be interested in trade with the Cardinals that could involve Gray.
You may be thinking the Blue Jays are pretty set in the rotation and instead need more help in the bullpen. Sportsnet's Ben Nicholson-Smith is reporting that the Jays may target starting pitching this winter and who better than a recent Cy Young winner? The 34-year-old Gray won a Cy Young as recently as 2023 when he posted a 2.79 ERA in 32 starts. He then landed a multiyear deal worth $75M from the Red Birds that will run through 2026. -Gueren
In terms of bullpen, Helsley could be a great option for the Blue Jays as well as he enters the last year of his current deal after an incredible 2024 season with a 2.04 ERA and 7-4 record, he could be a massive addition for the Blue Jays.
Ryan Helsley will be a very popular trade candidate for a lot of clubs, no less the Blue Jays. Truthfully, other members of the St. Louis bullpen like JoJo Romero and Ryan Fernandez should be at the forefront of talks because of their multiple years of control and stout production. -Gueren
Since both of these pitchers are definitely incredible players, the Blue Jays will have to make the Cardinals a solid offer in return if they plan on getting one of these two pitchers.
