Blue Jays searching for relief pitching; in contact with Francisco Rodriguez, Rafael Soriano, Burke Badenhop By Justin Millar The Toronto Blue Jays are continuing their search for bullpen help, per FOX Sports' Jon Morosi, who reports that the club has been "in contract" with representatives for a number of relievers including Francisco Rodriguez, Rafael Soriano, and Burke Badenhop. The Blue Jays' search for relievers has been long noted, and the club added right-hander Ronald Belisario earlier today, though he only received a minor league deal. The Blue Jays also lost longtime closer Casey Janssen to the Washington Nationals yesterday, and as Sportsnet.ca's Ben Nicholson-Smith notes, the club currently has about $5 or $6 million available in payroll flexibility. Rodriguez, Soriano, and Badenhop seem to be the clear top relief arms still available on the open market, with Badenhop representing the only one of the trio without closing experience. However, he has posted a 2.90 ERA, 3.40 FIP, 2.88 K/BB, and a 2.0 WAR over the past three years with the Rays, Brewers, and Red Sox While Toronto seems to be mostly exploring the free agent market, they may also be a possible landing spot for Phillies' closer Jonathan Papelbon. However, as FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal pointed out earlier today, the club's interest is "extremely limited" unless Philadelphia would be willing to take on a significant amount of money. The Blue Jays are currently slated to head into the season with a rather young bullpen crop led by southpaw Brett Cecil and right-hander Aaron Sanchez, who seem to be the two frontrunners to take over for Janssen as Toronto's closer. However, the team would prefer to keep Cecil in a set-up capacity, while Sanchez is likely a starter long-term. The bullpen should also include some combination of Belisario, Aaron Loup, Marco Estrada, Kyle Drabek, Steve Delabar, Chad Jenkins, and Todd Redmond. In 2014, the Blue Jays bullpen struggled, finishing 22nd in the league in WAR (1.3) and 26th in FIP (4.05).

Ronald Belisario tested positive for cocaine, said he used it only once lol http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/02/22/ronald-belisario-tested-positive-for-cocaine-said-he-used-it-only-once/comment-page-1/

Villanueva = Estrada Badenhop, Axford, Everth Cabrera and cheap SP

Tepera, Infante and Oramas for me. Matt West hair is amazing.

Of that group of arms the Jays could build something good. Steve Delabar Ronald Belisario Preston Guilmet Juan Pablo Oramas Matt West Wilton Lopez Gregory Infante Ryan Tepera

Jim Bowden ‏ Belisario deal will pay him 1.7m if he makes team

and this guy........... Shi Davidi #BlueJays sign infielder Ramon Santiago to minor-league deal. Comes into camp for a look. OPS of .667 in 75 games for #Reds last year

He's an innings eaten RP. I like this low cost sign

48 RLW + 29 bats + 11 P = ~88 Wins

Syndergaard isn't a RP. f*** KLaw and his "He'll end pitching out of the bullpen"

Top-10 OF Byron Buxton Joc Pederson Jorge Soler Jesse Winker Alex Jackson Michael Taylor Dalton Pompey Austin Meadows Hunter Renfroe Clint Frazier Dalton Pompey Scouting Grades: Hit: 60 | Power: 45 | Run: 60 | Arm: 50 | Field: 60 | Overall: 55 After starting the 2014 season with Class A Advanced Dunedin, Pompey rocketed through three levels of the Minor Leagues and made his Major League debut in September. Along the way, the Ontario native appeared in the All-Star Futures Game and established himself as the Blue Jays' top position prospect. Pompey combines elite athleticism with a good feel for hitting on both sides of the plate. He has a mature approach and is adapt at working walks. While his approach lends itself more to high contact rates than power, his bat speed enables him to drive balls. He has above-average speed and puts it to good use both on the basepaths and in center field, where he covers a lot of ground. Though Pompey still has room for further refinement, the Blue Jays showed faith in him during the offseason and he was penciled in as their starting center fielder entering the 2015 season.

Save that quote for later, Dr-Dinger isn't here.

Severino, Finnegan, Hoffman, Sims out

Belisario is our 2014 Brandon League, but cheaper.

Finnegan

Alex has a chance.

Some Jays lefty who lost velocity and his wife tweets like JP Arencibia 2013 2013-2014: 114 innings (11.53 K, 3.95 BB, 0.47HR)/9, 53% GB, 2.63 FIP VS David Robertson 2013-2014: 130 innings (11.92 K, 2.82 BB, 0.83 HR)/9, 48% GB, 2.65 FIP

Estrada and Redmond can start, but they shouldn't. The depth is a big problem right now for the Jays.

That was after the suspension.

5M backup catcher? AJ Jimenez is almost ready for that kind of role for free. Everth Cabrera is a better 5M dollars option.

lol Viciedo suck

John Farrell "Dyson best stuff in Jays organization"

Bernie Pleskoff ‏ #Dbacks have named Joe Carter as a Special Assistant to General Manager Dave Stewart. What a great hitter he was. Loved watching him play.
