Toronto Blue Jays' Pitching Staff in Crisis

0:00On April 30th, the Toronto Blue Jays pitching staff has taken a beating from injuries right out the gate this season. Cody Ponce tore his ACL in his debut, and he's done for the year. Trey Asavage finally got his first start this Tuesday after nursing a shoulder issue through rehab and triple A. Meanwhile, key right-handers Shane Bieber and Jose Barrios remain sidelined on the injured list. Added Max Scherzer, dealing with four armed tendonitis and ankle inflammation, and the rotation looks then just one month in. Fans and analysts are feeling the pain as the Jays sit with a 4.21 team ERA, which ain't cutting it for a contender. Jose Soriano has been lights out, topping the majors with a 0.84 ERA over seven starts, proving his hot start is no fluke. The Jays do have solid arms like Dylan Seas, Kevin Galsman, and now Yesavage stepping up, but none match Soriano's dominance so far. Scouts say grabbing him could cost a fortune with other team circling too. If these injuries keep piling up, Toronto might have to open the checkbook for
