Eric Lauer and the Blue Jays A Comeback Story Brewing?
Eric Lauer, a name many might have forgotten, is getting another shot at the big leagues with the Blue Jays. After a stint in Korea, hes back and ready to compete for a roster spot. This begs the question, what role will he ultimately fill?
Lauers primarily been a starter, but he also has some bullpen experience. With a rotation seemingly set with Gausman, Berrios, Bassitt, and Francis, is there even room for him to start? Could this be a sign that the Blue Jays are unsure about Yariel Rodriguez after a difficult first season? Or perhaps they see Lauer as a valuable swingman, capable of filling multiple roles?
Even more intriguing is what this says about the Blue Jays overall strategy. Are they prioritizing veteran presence over developing younger arms? Is this a move out of necessity or a calculated gamble?
Lets hear your predictions. Will Lauer make the Opening Day roster? What impact will he have on the team? Is this a smart move by the Blue Jays front office? Share your thoughts and lets discuss.
