It’s a strange, newfound position that the Blue Jays find themselves in, having reasonably strong starting rotation depth. Things were dangerously thing at times in 2019, but that shouldn’t be the case for the upcoming season, thanks to the fine work of the front office over the off-season thus far.
Ross Atkins and company have added Hyun-Jin Ryu, Tanner Roark, Chase Anderson, and brought back a healthy Matt Shoemaker to join a group of young starters who managed to get through the last few months of the 2019 campaign, even if they used a lot of “openers” and “bulk guys” to get it done.
