Are the Blue Jays rebuilding or contending? As of the 2019 All-Star break, it looked like the former. Toronto shipped off pitchers Marcus Stroman (Mets), Aaron Sanchez (Astros), Joe Biagini (Astros), and Daniel Hudson (Nats), as well as second baseman Eric Sogard (Milwaukee) and shortstop Freddy Galvis (Cincinnati). Then they had a better second half, boosted by production from young hotshots Bo Bichette, Vladimir Guerrero, Jr. and Cavan Biggio, and in the offseason they added some big names to the rotation: former Dodgers hurler Hyun Jin Ryu (4 years, $80 MM), Tanner Roark (2 years, $24 MM), and Chase Anderson (trade).
