According to Bob Nightengale of USA Today, the Blue Jays won’t stand in the way of the Red Sox in their pursuit of manager John Farrell.
The Red Sox reportedly have Farrell at the top of their list for manager, though they haven’t asked the Blue Jays for permission to speak with him yet. Farrell is under contract with Toronto for one more year, so the Red Sox would have to work out a trade in order to bring him into the fold.
