Aaron Sanchez's secret weapon? Marco Estrada's changeup

DUNEDIN, Fla. -- It's 9:53 on a cloudless spring training morning. For the rest of the Toronto Blue Jays' pitching staff, it's time for a break. But not for Aaron Sanchez.

For Sanchez, the reigning American League ERA champ, it's time for another visit to the Marco Estrada Changeup Academy.

After a winter spent reflecting on what he can do to take yet another step toward ace-hood, Sanchez's deliberations led him to a pitch he has never fully developed but one he thinks "would change me tremendously."

Obviously, Sanchez doesn't "need" to change anything.
