Apparently the Jays are targeting Pirates starting pitchers Trevor Williams and Chad Kuhl.
Not exactly front of the rotation guys so while it would help the depth, especially with Shoemaker, Pearson and Thornton out, I don't see how it moves the needle much, especially long term.
Also Shatkins would have to tread carefully, because Cherington and Sanders should have a pretty good feel for the Jays farm system, and might be able to cherry pick some diamonds in the rough better than other orgs.
