UPDATE: With less than 20 minutes before the deadline, the Blue Jays have acquired right-hander Scott Feldman from the Houston Astros, per Brian McTaggart of MLB.com. And after the deadline, MLB.com's Jon Morosi reported that the Blue Jays acquired Francisco Liriano.

Add the Toronto Blue Jays to the list of teams heavily involved in the trade market for starting pitchers, as they look to help their rotation for the stretch run prior to Monday's non-waiver trade deadline.

MLB.com's Jon Morosi reports that the Blue Jays are discussing a trade for Minnesota Twins pitcher Ervin Santana, while the team also is looking at Rich Hill of the Oakland Athletics, Jorge De La Rosa of the Colorado Rockies and the Tampa Bay Rays' group of starters -- Chris Archer, Jake Odorizzi, Matt Moore and Drew Smyly -- according to Chris Cotillo of SB Nation.

Cotillo reported that the Jays are still "in play" in the sweepstakes for the Philadelphia Phillies' Jeremy Hellickson. With the Baltimore Orioles trading for Wade Miley on Saturday, Toronto could be among the favorites to land the 29-year-old right-hander.

The Blue Jays moved to the top of the American League East standings after beating the Orioles on Saturday, and likely will need to add a starter to stay in the playoff hunt. Aaron Sanchez, who has been the team's best starter this season, is expected to move to the bullpen before the end of the year, leaving the team an arm short heading into the fall. Toronto could also turn to Drew Hutchison, who has started a couple games this season and is currently in Triple-A, to replace Sanchez.
