Blue Jays: Veteran starting pitcher on offseason radar

With veteran starter Marco Estrada almost certainly leaving the roster this winter, the Blue Jays are left with a plethora of rotation question marks entering the 2019 season.

According to Gregor Chisholm of MLB.com, the Blue Jays will “likely” add another starting pitcher to their rotation through free agency. He also adds throughout the column that the team will probably end up adding an older, more experienced starter in order to mentor their crop of young arms.

This seems unsurprising, to say the least. The Blue Jays have been long connected with other journeyman starters who recently appeared on the free-agent market, mainly Doug Fister and Mike Fiers in the last few seasons.
