"The Blue Jays expected to have Jeff Hoffman as the closer, with Tyler Rogers and Louis Varland setup men. In middle relief, they list Braydon Fisher, Mason Fluharty, Tommy Nance, and Brendon Little."
"Angel Bastardo and Spencer Miles were selected for their potential, but the Jays would have to carry Bastardo on the 26-man roster for 90 days before optioning him, and Miles would need to stay on the 26-man roster for the entire season."
"Chase Lee is one of the favourites to earn the final spot, because not only does he have big league experience, but he's pitched six and one-third scoreless innings this season."
The Toronto Blue Jays are finalizing their bullpen ahead of the season opener, with Jeff Hoffman expected as closer. Tyler Rogers and Louis Varland are set up men, while Braydon Fisher, Mason Fluharty, Tommy Nance, and Brendon Little are in middle relief. Yimi García may fill the last spot, and Eric Lauer could return later. Rule 5 draftees Angel Bastardo and Spencer Miles are under consideration, but both have struggled in Spring Training. Chase Lee is a strong candidate for the final spot due to his experience and performance.
