Jays Rotation Picture Taking Shape With More Moves Needed
Toronto's deadline acquisitions Soriano and Arrighetti join an emerging rotation core, but the club still needs at least one more starter before Opening Day.
The Blue Jays acquired pitchers Soriano and Arrighetti at the trade deadline, and both are expected to compete for spots in next season's Opening Day rotation. They would join Dylan Cease, Yesavage, Ponce, and Miles as rotation candidates. Despite the additions, analyst Jon Morosi notes Toronto still needs to add at least one more starting pitcher this offseason. The rotation situation signals continued roster-building activity for the Jays heading into the winter.
