Why a Marcus Stroman reunion isn't likely for Blue Jays

The Blue Jays will almost certainly be buyers at the trade deadline, Marcus Stroman looks to be available, and there are rumours the team is interested in bringing him back to Toronto.

The team initially traded Stroman in 2019 because it was a young, rebuilding squad that needed prospects more than a veteran starter. Now it is a veteran group that has acquired players at the trade deadline for postseason pushes in three consecutive seasons.

Landing an established player of Stroman's calibre isn't out of the question. Getting him specifically probably is.
