Well if JP and Cito are coming back, I would think that means Paul is leaning towards coming back too. They were saying on TSN that the Jays will try to do something to see if they can retain A.J Burnett. Marcum apparently still has some tenderness in his arm so that is a bit concerning for them. Thats the reason it's not the best idea to trade pitching even if you seem well stocked at it. Every year you will get injuries and a lot of guys have promising careers cut short because of it.

Even with injury the past couple years Burnett still threw 150+ innings in the starts he did make. This year it looks like Litsch, Burnett, and Halladay will be the only Jays pitchers to throw more than that. Every year it amazes me how few pitchers do manage to throw 162 innings, mostly because it's a position where injuries will occur.
