Outfielder Anthony Santander, who slugged 44 home runs for the Baltimore Orioles in 2024, agreed to a five-year deal with the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday. That leaves Bregman, the longtime Houston Astros third baseman, as one of two impact bats remaining on the market. The other, first baseman Pete Alonso, wouldn’t be a good fit for the Tigers.

The Orioles took to social media to post a tribute video on Anthony Santander. Fans immediately slammed the team for missing out on the star.

But a shorter-term deal, while forcing some creative roster adjustments, might make more sense.

Sure there are durability questions about Orioles outfielder Tyler O’Neill, a player they signed via free agency in December. But last year he took 473 plate appearances to rank fifth-most on the Boston Red Sox and the O’s would probably take that and run with it right now.

Toronto general manager Ross Atkins said a Blue Jays jersey with Anthony Santander’s name on it was “floating around our office” throughout the offseason.
