If there’s one thing I’ve learned since watching the 2016 version of the Toronto Blue Jays, it’s that pitching depth is really important. That team needed only seven starters to get through the 162 game season, and let’s just say that’s not how things usually go.
The Blue Jays’ rotation got some more bad news on Friday night when Charlie Montoyo had to remove Aaron Sanchez in the fourth inning. We don’t yet know how long Sanchez might be sidelined, but unfortunately he was taken out because of a blister issue on his pitching hand, which is a well-known issue for the talented starter.
