The Blue Jays, already with one of the best rotations in baseball, just flexed their muscle again. They’ve agreed to terms with right-hander Cody Ponce on a three-year, $30 million deal, a source confirms to MLB.

The Toronto Blue Jays signed Cody Ponce to a three-year, $30 million deal following his MVP season in Korea. That's the richest contract ever for a KBO returnee

Ponce, 31, has not pitched at the MLB level since 2021. He spent last season with the Hanwha Eagles of the Korea Baseball Organization, starting 29 times and amassing a 1.89 ERA and a 6.15 strikeout-to-walk ratio. CBS Sports ranked Ponce as the 45th-best player on the market. Here's what we wrote at the time:
