The Toronto Blue Jays are closing in on acquiring Detroit Tigers ace David Price, according to Jon Heyman of CBS Sports.

Report: Blue Jays acquire David Price from Tigers in blockbuster trade

Heyman says the Blue Jays are making a "major push" to land the coveted left-hander, who's also reportedly being pursued by the Los Angeles Dodgers, San Francisco Giants, and New York Yankees.

Rival executives tell Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports that Blue Jays prospects Daniel Norris and Anthony Alford would likely headline the return package to Detroit.

The Blue Jays are rumored to be in the market for a frontline starting pitcher to compliment the league's highest-scoring offense. Toronto entered Thursday seven games back of the New York Yankees in the AL East, but just two games out of the second wild-card spot.

Acquiring Price would be a major coup for a club that just days ago landed superstar shortstop Troy Tulowitzki from the Colorado Rockies in a blockbuster deal.
