The Boston Red Sox have made a big move by getting their hands on Kenley Jansen. the closer is still a great pitcher and will spend the next two seasons in red.
But from what we say, he could also have played in orange or blue since the Giants and the Blue Jays were finalists in the file.
Obviously, it would have been special to see him play in orange since he spent the majority of his career with the Dodgers, the enemies of the Giants.
Otherwise, the Blue Jays clearly need relief help, but they already have a #1 reliever in Jordan Romano. Would the Canadian have become the eighth inning pitcher? Who knows.
There Romano knows the Blue Jays had a closer in the crosshairs, but that they missed their shot. It will be up to him to take it well.
But otherwise, it shows that the Jays do need a little help in relief.
With the price at which pitchers are signing, should Ross Atkins, instead, go for a trade in order to improve his mound?
The question is valid.
