This arguably seems to be the biggest area of need left for the Jays after AA went ninja style this off-season. Their are few options left that are established and could close for the Jays (Romo, Miller, K-Rod, Neshek, Soriano). I also wouldnt be opposed to bringing back Morrow in a relief role if its a 1 year deal.

 

Anyone have idea's who the Jays should target to fill the bullpen?

I don't think Morrow comes back on a 1 year contract to work out of the bull pen. Someone will take a flyer on him and give him a starting role.

Acquire an ace, and keep Sanchez in the pen really sures things up.

I think Romo or Axford would also be interesting.

 

Not Romo, Axford maybe but he's probably bad. Ogando.

Back to Seattle :)

I forgot about Ogando. Yeah, that would be a good one. As for Romo, he struggled in the first half of the season last year, but was pretty much back to normal in the second half. I'm thinking he probably signs at a discount if he's guaranteed the closer role, and outside of Roberson and Miller, probably produces just as much value as anyone else. Axford is basically Delabar with closing experience, and likely is in the 1 to 1.5M range.

 

If Brett Anderson is ready to give up being a starter, he'd be an excellent BP arm as well.

Wouldn't be a bad idea for him, probably would prefer an NL team though.

Anyone of these starters converted to the pen could make excellent relievers.

 

Gavin Floyd

Franklin Morales

Joe Saunders

Kevin Slowey

Edinson Volquez

 

Brandon Beachy

Alexei Ogando

 

Didn't Floyd die though? I think he's still out with TJS. And I think Volquez starts somewhere.

Ogando Id be all on board with, he is a giant and really commands the ball well when healthy, what kind of contract do you think he would get?

Can't imagine much.

It's too bad the collapse of Ricky Romero was so epic he can't even provide us 30-40 innings of mop up work in the last year of his contract.

Ricky is still hoping

Ya I'm still very high on Delabar.

 

I'm not high, but hopeful. I don't think there's any reason one should think he can't bounce back. He's overcome far more, unless there's something about his current pickle I'm unaware of.

Romero has the ability to bounce back but not counting on him for anything. He is just a bonus

 

Romero is not a bonus, he is a huge black hole towards our payroll. Luckily he will soon be off the payroll after this coming season.
