It's sort of a ticking Time Bomb with Stroman on the way out and Sanchez being hot garbage. Even when It's Quite Alright, it's not long again until it Falls Back Down.
Hopefully Borucki pitches well in his return and some of the close-proximity prospects like Pearson and Murphy pan out.

Well, one is good at pitching and the other is not. One is a hot commodity, the other was not. And one has an extra year of control, the other was a rental.
It's not indicative of anything, Mr. Van Anus.
If the Jays can get anything at all for Daniel Hudson, they have to make that trade. The predictive stats are far less kind to him than his ERA and he's a free agent after this season.
