We’re a mere 2 days away from pitchers and catchers reporting to spring training, with the Blue Jays set to report in Dunedin to get things underway. In addition to the returning players, the Blue Jays will welcome J.P. Howell, Joe Smith, and more to their camp for the first time, as well as free agent catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia.
Several others have been signed this offseason, and brought in to battle for a big league job on John Gibbons’ 25 man roster. Those names include the likes of Gavin Floyd, T.J. House, Brett Oberholtzer, and Rule 5 pick Glenn Sparkman.
