Shane Bieber didn't have too far to travel to get to Toronto. Cleveland and Canada are just separated by Lake Erie, after all. And the former Guardians' pitcher, newly acquired in a trade by the Blue Jays, was considering an unusual way of getting up north. Possibly joking, but still.

Pitcher Shane Bieber is headed to the AL East-leading Toronto Blue Jays in a deal with the rebuilding Cleveland Guardians, who also dealt right-hander Paul Sewald in the division to the AL Central-leading Tigers.

From All-Star Game MVP at Progressive Field to his unanimous Cy Young Award in 2020, Bieber leaves Cleveland after seven memorable seasons.
