Starting rotation nearing full strength

Aaron Sanchez is still not close to returning, but with four-fifths of the rotation back in the fold, there's finally a light at the end of the tunnel. This team was built around its starters, somehow survived without the majority of the staff intact, and will now look to go on a run.

"We're getting closer," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. "We have [Josh] Donaldson and [Troy] Tulowitzki back, that's big. Now if we can get that rotation rolling. They've been beat up. This is kind of what we envisioned. It should definitely help us.
