Blue Jays’ social media buzz hints Yankees will lose Freddie Freeman to TOR
Don’t expect a positive Freddie Freeman update around these parts ever again, Yankees fans! Unfortunately, though you’ve likely already accepted Freeman-to-the-Dodgers
things appear to be getting worse after the Atlanta Braves scorned him on Monday afternoon.
By now, you’re well aware that Atlanta pulled the wool over Freeman’s eyes by blindsiding him (and the Yankees!) with an Olson deal midday Monday
So much for the mythical Olson/Sean Manaea/Sean Murphy package that simply had to be coming after Sunday night’s Twins bombshell.
Because the reports that emerged in the wake of Freeman losing the only home he’s ever known in MLB indicated the Dodgers were serious,
the Yankees were trying (but would have to overcome a geographical hurdle), and two surprise bidders — the Blue Jays and Rays — were actually very much involved.
Surely, that’s not real, right? Surely, those two teams are just being used to put pressure on LA in the same way that … well, we probably were?
