Joe Biagini will likely end up being a starter in next years rotation to fill the likely departure of Francisco Liriano and the potential departure of Marco Estrada. Biagini was sent to the Blue Jays rotation out of necessity due to all of the injuries sustained in the rotation. Biagini has given the Blue Jays everything that they could have hoped for. He’s thrown 30.1 innings as a starter and has posted a 3.26 ERA, 2.90 FIP, 20.6 K%, and 5.6 BB%.
There is a very strong case to keep him in the rotation for the rest of the season, especially considering the performance of Francisco Liriano to this point of the season.
