Bob Elliott of the Toronto Sun reports that the Blue Jays have contacted the agents for free agent closers Matt Capps and Francisco Cordero.
The Blue Jays have cast a wide net in their search for a closer, even exploring trades for Huston Street of the Rockies and Andrew Bailey of the Athletics. Elliott writes that Heath Bell is "the best fit for the Jays as he is the best on the market," though the level of their interest isn't clear. The 34-year-old right-hander is reportedly seeking a three-year deal.
