The Toronto Blue Jays will likely be shopping for a shortstop and starting pitching in free agency
The Blue Jays like what Joe Inglett and Marco Scutaro did last season for them but they need a legit offensive shortstop to hit near the top of the batting order. Rafael Furcal will probably be the Jays’ top target but other teams will be after him driving up the price tag. With that in mind the Blue Jays might make a play for Orlando Cabrera and he would be a solid addition to the team. The Blue Jays will likely need two starting pitchers behind Roy Halladay, Jesse Litsch and David Purcey. With that in mind look for the Blue Jays to consider Ben Sheets, Jon Garland, Braden Looper and possibly Kenny Rogers or Mike Hampton. The Blue Jays are too close to making the playoffs to go cheap now so it’s time to throw in some chips and make a run.
