Myles Straw had become an afterthought for the Cleveland Guardians after barely appearing with them during the 2024 MLB season.

The Toronto Blue Jays acquired outfielder Myles Straw from the Cleveland Guardians yesterday afternoon along with $3.75 million in cash and $2 million in international bonus pool money.

They traded Gold Glove second baseman Andres Gimenez to the Blue Jays at the winter meetings to get out from under the almost $100 million they owed him. They continued the pattern on Friday by sending another Gold Glove defender, Myles Straw, to Toronto for a player to be named.
