Report: Blue Jays Sign Free Agent Kevin Gausman For 5 Years

The Toronto Blue Jays got their guy.

After years of trying, the Blue Jays have finally signed starting pitcher Kevin Gausman. The Jays have agreed to terms with the free agent starter on a five-year, $110 million deal, per ESPN's Jeff Passan.

The Blue Jays offered the righty a multi-year deal early last offseason before he accepted San Francisco's qualifying offer, and entered this offseason with identifying Gausman as a top target, per a team source.

The 30-year-old pitched 192 innings in 2021, posting a 2.81 ERA, 3.0 FIP, and striking out over 10.5 batters per nine. The contract will keep Gausman as a Blue Jay through his age 35 season.

Details to follow.
