Luis Severino, fresh off a bounce-back season with the New York Mets, could be one of the Toronto Blue Jays' top targets if they miss out on Juan Soto and Max Fried.
Severino is not the biggest fish the Blue Jays are hunting, as their pursuit of superstar Juan Soto is already well-documented. Multiple reports have surfaced connecting them to Max Fried, Corbin Burnes and Alex Bregman as well, all of which Nicholson-Smith reinforced in his most recent breakdown of the team's targets.
Severino was on a one-year, $13 million contract in New York, spending the previous nine seasons on the other side of town. Despite all the injuries, Severino still went 42-18 with a 3.10 ERA, 1.064 WHIP and 10.5 strikeouts per nine innings between 2018 and 2022, averaging a 4.6 WAR per 162 games. He went 4-8 with a 6.65 ERA, 1.646 WHIP and -1.5 WAR in 2023, though, marking a disappointing end to his time with the Yankees.
