"Soto's buddy shared some interesting free agency gossip to NJ Advance Media.
«Look for the Blue Jays to make an astronomical offer,» Soto's pal said by phone.
The Blue Jays?
«I heard it with my own ears,» he said before sharing details."

Following the New York Yankees win over the Kansas City Royals last night in game 3, Soto spoke to reporters and was asked about the rumors regarding this possible offer from the Blue Jays. Soto stated that he does not know anything about it and they are not allowed to talk to him until the off season.

«I don't know anything about that,» Soto replied, per Miller. «They can't talk to me now. Let's see what happens in the offseason.»
Clearly Soto is not allowed to talk on this but he is clearly aware of the rumors and also did not state that he does not want to going to Toronto which is a great sign for all Blue Jays fans.
While signing Soto is far from a sure thing, it is clearly a possibility.
