The Toronto Blue Jays could use help in their outfield at the MLB trade deadline, and Cleveland Guardians All-Star Steven Kwan is a good fit.
The American League East-leading Blue Jays came to Baltimore as baseball’s hottest team. The Orioles, by starting the four-game series with two imposing victories, extinguished that stretch with a pair of offensive outputs that showed what a mostly healthy lineup can do — even if it’s too late to change the front office’s plans.
The Orioles took the series opener 11-4 to extend its twinning streak to three games. Baltimore has scored 34 runs in the past three games, while Toronto has dropped two straight giving up 21 runs. The Blue Jays were 8-1 before the two-game losing skid.
