With Opening Day less than two weeks away, the final roster of the Toronto Blue Jays is quickly starting to take shape based on how things have played out during spring training.
As expected, there were quite a few surprises in training camp this year with several players emerging as popular candidates to make the team.
There were also a few roster hopefuls that took a step back and didn’t help their cause with sub-par performances in Grapefruit League games.
Injuries have been a huge problem across the league right now. Several noteworthy players such as Kris Medlen of the Atlanta Braves, Patrick Corbin of the Arizona Diamondbacks and Jarrod Parker of the Oakland Athletics have all gone down during spring training with season-ending injuries.
Luckily, the Blue Jays have only experienced minor injuries this spring and the team should go into the regular season with a healthy roster.
With that being said, let’s take a closer look at the surprises, busts and injuries of spring training.
