One of the dominant headlines around the Blue Jays so far this offseason has been what’s to become of Marcus Stroman, and whether he’ll still be on the roster come Opening Day. For what it’s worth, Stroman has repeatedly expressed his adoration for the city, the fan base, and for wearing a Blue Jays jersey, but that hasn’t stopped the rumour mill from churning.
It makes some sense because of where things are at with the Blue Jays these days. After a few seasons of pushing for the American League pennant, the team is now firmly in the beginning stages of a rebuild, one that has the roster already looking drastically different than it did a few years ago.
