The Toronto Blue Jays continue to bolster their starting rotation, just hours after the Dylan Cease signing was made official. According to Ken Rosenthal, free-agent right-hander Cody Ponce is finalizing a three-year, $30-million agreement with the Blue Jays.
The 31-year-old has spent the last four years pitching overseas, splitting his time between the Japan Pacific League, Japan Eastern League and the KBO. Last year, he was nothing short of dominant in Korea, bringing home the MVP while pitching to a 1.89 ERA across 180.2 innings, striking out a ridiculous 272 hitters, all to a record of 17-1.
