Stroman
Sanchez
Norris
Hutchison
Hoffman
That's just our young starters, who could conceivably be ready to go as early as spring training next season. I wouldn't feel super comfortable with that, but it's a stable of young talent that project to be #2 or 3 starters (perhaps no longer Hutchison, remains to be seen). Add a veteran starting pitcher if Buerhle is to retire, also keeping Estrada in the mix, and it already looks like an improvement to our current situation.
With Osuna and Castro being nice young bullpen pieces, that's actually as good of young pitching talent as the Jays have had in a decade.
