And like you said... Dickey would never go for it. He already has a rep for being a bit of a baby.
Sanchez is in the rotation for sure, with Happ traded, unless AA has some other moves still coming. Dickey, Buhrle, Stroman, Sanchez and ???
The stealing bases thing is a good point. It’s also not like Thole is a great guy at picking off players. Plus you’d have to (now) remove Martin from the game to put in Thole if Dickey closed/relieved.
Isn’t Hutchinson still a Jay? He’s only 23 and looked good last yr. If AA does bring in a SP, Sanchez would be a solid closer, but I think the jays will give him a chance to try and start. Just like what they did with Stroman last season.
