Anthony Kay looked well on his way to becoming a force in the New York Mets rotation. It was in 2019 that he made 26 total starts in the minors and left with a 2.96 ERA.
Not all of those innings came as a member of the Mets organization. Traded to the Toronto Blue Jays mid-year as part of the Marcus Stroman deal, Kay would later make his MLB debut that same year.
