TORONTO – The Toronto Blue Jays entered into an exclusive five-day negotiating window with their nine impending free agents Thursday, a list headlined by franchise icons Edwin Encarnacion and Jose Bautista.
Neither slugger is expected to sign before free agents become eligible to sign with any team at 12:01 a.m. Tuesday, when the annual general managers’ meetings get started in Scottsdale, Ariz.
