Twins signed RHP Jose Espada to a minor league contract.

The Mets are exploring a reunion with free agent Brooks Raley.

Craig Kimbrel intends to keep pitching in 2027.

The Blue Jays are slated to meet with Tarik Skubal’s agents.

Chris Martin has officially retired from baseball, according to his agency,

Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins said the team hopes to “continue to grow” Spencer Miles’ workload in 2027.

Twins general manager Jeremy Zoll said the team has “real genuine interest in a reunion” with Ryan Jeffers.

MLB.com’s Brian McTaggart reports that “Brad Ausmus is flying to Houston tomorrow in anticipation he will be named the next Astros manager.”

The Athletic’s Sahadev Sharma reports that the Cubs seem to be “ready to go young and lean on switch-hitting prospect Owen Ayers to team up with Miguel Amaya.”

Japanese RHP Shoki Oda met with the Yankees on Tuesday, according to Yakyu Cosmopolitan.

The Japanese high schooler is a highly sought-after free agent who has already met with the Rangers, Phillies, Mets, Blue Jays, and Cardinals. The 18-year-old was recently selected with the 10th overall pick in the Nippon Professional Baseball draft, but he has expressed a desire to play for an MLB team. His fastball runs into the mid-90s, and he also has a slider, curve, cutter, and splitter. He garnered national attention in the U-18 World Cup, where he struck out seven against Chinese Taipei. Since Oda would be an international free agent, he would be signed to a minor league deal, and his contract would be limited to how much money a team has in its bonus pool, much like we saw with Roki Sasaki two years ago.
