Marcus Stroman (SP, TOR) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In AL Only Leagues and Deeper Mixed Leagues

ANALYSIS: Coming straight out of Medford, NY, the diminutive rookie flame thrower had scouts, and Blue Jays fans alike, all worked up about his upcoming major league debut. Well, in his first shot at the big show (as a reliever) between May 4th-14th, the 5-9 righty did nothing impressive surrendering 10 ER in just 6.1 innings pitched, thereby earning him his immediate demotion for a couple of weeks. Fast forward to his rebirth as a major league starter upon being recalled on May 31st (the role he is best suited for based on his professional track record) and young Marcus has been absolutely lights out, living up to the ridiculous hype following his domination of the minor leagues. In his last 2 appearances (both as a starter), Stroman has pitched 12 innings, while striking out 13 batters and only surrendering 2 runs and 2 free passes in the process. It's no wonder he is now 3-0 as a big leaguer and keeping his rotation spot for the foreseeable future, so if you can forget about the Blue Jays horrendous misuse of the 2012 draft's 22nd overall pick, then you will most likely get yourself a valuable strikeout artist with a chance to compile another 8-10 wins this year. Be sure to temper your expectations though, as he is NOT the second coming of Jose Fernandez, but if Toronto keeps putting the offensive smack down on the majority of their opponents, then this pedigree star should keep proving he belongs in the big show instead of dismantling hopeless minor league hitters.
