Chayka has confirmed in his early days on the job that he won't be afraid to make bold moves, and Sundin could have some awkward conversations coming with some of the organization's longest tenured players. The offseason retool is coming, and multiple holes throughout Toronto's lineup need to be addressed, and some bold offseason trades will certainly help reallocate some resources moving forward.

It's a 4-year, $112M deal for Trey Hendrickson. Huge. A four-time Pro Bowler who is just one season removed from a 2024 campaign in which he led the league with 17.5 sacks, earned first-team All-Pro honors, and finished second in the NFL's Defensive Player of the Year race, Hendrickson is the type of player a team needing help getting to the quarterback would traditionally rush to sign.

Tampa is clearly the weakest team in the division after a quintessential Rays offseason that involved letting several marquee players go. They traded long-time second baseman-and known Blue Jays killer-Brandon Lowe to the Pittsburgh Pirates and watched closer Pete Fairbanks sign a one-year deal in Miami, among other moves.

In his final pre-deadline trade board, notable commentator Nick Kyrpeos shot down any speculation regarding Rielly. While he noted that Oliver Ekman-Larsson could be on the move, Kypreos underscored the point that "there is no market for Morgan Rielly."
