Due to this being the 2nd year the Jays have gone over the luxury tax, they will be charged an additional 30% on top of their current $279m payroll.
If they add Bo or tucker, they will be charge another 60% on top of the 30% because they will exceed the threshold by $60m.This years Jays team could cost over $500m.
Something will have to give.
Berrios is out the door?They have to get rid of Santander and Berrios, that clears a lot of space to sign somebody more useful.
I think it reduces the chances a little on Bo, but I guess have to make the moves when they present themselves.

Berrios is out the door?Do the Jays have an elite closer that they can rely on to win Game 7 of the World Series with a 1 run lead in the 9th inning vs the 9th batter yet?
No?
Fantastic.
Probably takes them out of resigning Bo and maybe signing tucker.

Kyle Sucker
Cody SmellingerHard pass
Run it back baby!
Would rather see them win
Pass on tucker if he wants $418 over 11.
Sign Bo 5years – $150m
Sign Bellinger 5 years – $150m
Grab another relieverHe may want that kind of $ but there’s a lot of talk that his market isn’t as strong as was assumed. My guess is that both Tucker and Bo have indicated that they’ll check back in with the Jays before signing anything. I’m not sure that the team has a specific budget right now but will have to go to Rogers if they get something with one or both lined up. I’m sure the bean counters have a pretty good idea of what having a contending means both for team and media revenues. Also, a lot of $ (and talent come off the books next year. Not a bad idea to collect new talent when the team is attractive to FAs.
