According to MLB Network Insider Jon Heyman, righty starter Yu Darvish of the Cubs might be available in a trade. What would it take for the Blue Jays to acquire him?
Yu Darvish is a legitimate top of the rotation starter, filling an immediate need for the Blue Jays: another ace to pair with lefty Hyun Jin Ryu.
Standing 6-5 and 220lb, he’s an imposing figure on the mound with a long, successful career both in Nippon Professional Baseball and MLB.
