The Toronto Blue Jays missed out on Pete Alonso and have pivoted right away back toward Alex Bregman, who remains available. The Blue Jays missed out big Wednesday night as Pete Alonso agreed to a two-year deal with the New York Mets despite reports that he was closing in on a deal with the Blue Jays.

Spring training starts in a few days, but there is still some MLB offseason business to tackle. A handful of notable players remain on the free-agent market, including Alex Bregman. Pete Alonso finally came off the board on Feb.

Noted insider Bob Nightengale of USA Today says that Bregman, who has been linked to the Toronto Blue Jays and Boston Red Sox this offseason, has no interest in a short-term deal.
