Just trust BP and BA and you'll be solid.
Borucki did have elbow surgery but apparently it was a "clean up" and not TJS.
Maybe bone chips or something like that. Probably misses a big chunk of 2015.
Pitchers
Norris 195 IP - 3.2 fWAR
Sanchez 105 IP - 1.2 fWAR (moves to pen and is good there)
Castro 80 IP - 2.0 fWAR (elite setup all year)
Osuna 100 IP - 2.0 fWAR (gets some starts in the second half and holds his own)
Batters
Travis 600 PA - 2.5 fWAR
Pompey 600 PA - 1.5 fWAR (defense + patience. Low average)
Blue Jays win the World Series and everyone on this list gets ROY votes but Norris wins it after winning 20 games.
Also Jeff Hoffman pitches in the playoffs and is WS MVP.
meh, it's not like they are directly contradicting doctor's orders.
I bet a fair chunk of MLB pitchers are operating with partially torn, undiagnosed UCLs.
That's interesting. I wonder if he's tweaked his mechanics to be cleaner but offer less velocity, or if he's just going to use less effort and/or rely less on the 4 seamer.

The @BlueJays brought Luis Perez to Montreal. Apparently he's impressing in minor league camp. Could factor in big leagues this year.
Perez was solid in 2012. Left side velocity. Basically hasn't pitched in two years.
IIRC his offspeed stuff was OK too.
