We’re almost there sports fans. Just a few short days left until Opening Day 2016, and with that the final roster decisions are being made across the MLB this week.
For the Blue Jays, they left many decisions until nearly the bitter end, finally announcing several roster spots this morning. Among them, Joe Biagini, Arnold Leon and Ryan Tepera will all begin the season in the 8 man bullpen (which will shorten to 7 once Marco Estrada returns from his back-dated DL stint). Ezequiel Carrera has been named the 4th outfielder, beating out the likes of Junior Lake (who is out of options), spring training MVP Darrell Ceciliani, and former Phillies prospect Domonic Brown.
