Blue Jays’ Framber Valdez Check-In Signals Possible Pivot

Toronto met Valdez at November GM meetings, per Sportsnet. After missing on top bats, the Jays could pivot back to pitching, but their CBT estimate ($310.5M) already tops the $304M line. Valdez would also cost draft picks after rejecting a QO. Still, he’s a durable, extreme groundball lefty. He logged 192 innings with a 3.66 ERA last year.
