Dwindling Reliever Options + Kyle Tucker's Market

For the final episode of 2025 —barring any emergency podcasts— Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker open with their reactions to the Atlanta Braves taking closer Robert Suárez off the market with a 3-year, $45M deal. Then, they share their thoughts on Jeff Passan's report that the Jays could be in on both Bo Bichette and Kyle Tucker. MLB Network's Dan Plesac joins the show (13:08) to discuss the Jays' narrowing options for a top-end reliever, why Pete Fairbanks makes sense as a target for Toronto, how Dylan Cease can improve under Pete Walker and the Yankees' offseason uncertainties. Later, ESPN's Jesse Rogers stops by (34:32) to discuss Tucker's market, how he'd fit in with the Jays' culture and how Bo's defence impacts his free agent value.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
