03/14 17:11: According to a source close to George A. King III of the New York Post, Cuban shortstop Adeinis Hechavarria is close to signing a $10 million deal with the Toronto Blue Jays.
Earlier last week, it was believed that that Yankees were close to signing the shortstop as the heir apparent to Derek Jeter, but with the impending contract extension of Jeter, Hechavarria is reluctant to play for the Yankees.
Jordan Bastian of MLB.com follows up with a tweet regarding Alex Anthopoulos, Toronto’s GM, saying that he, “neither confirm nor deny report about Hechavarria.”
