Blue Jays Hope To Retain Robbie Ray And Steven Matz
3 years agoThe Toronto Blue Jays have already locked up right-hander Jose Berrios to a seven-year extension, and they are now setting their sights on bringing back two other members of their 2021 rotation, left-handers Robbie Ray and Steven Matz. Each had a breakout season in Toronto, with Ray winning the Cy Young Award and Matz posting a 3.82 ERA, his best since 2016. Each has been reported to have a robust market, but with little future payroll tied up, Toronto is in prime position to make a push to retain them. For fantasy purposes, the continuity of a return to the Jays would provide the most confidence in a repeat of their excellent years. Matz's market is moving more quickly, and it's possible he could sign before the end of November.
