Love the Hicks trade. Kloffenstein has shown that he’s back on a positive track and Robberse is a good arm but I don’t think they are likely front of the rotation guys.

I know he's a starter, and he will be for a long time most likely.
But in this case there would be no more games for him to start in the minors and expended rosters would allow the Jays to bring him up for a taste of the show as a reliever.
Long shot it happens,, especially with the depth of relievers the jays currently have, but he's a freak of nature and has the stuff to pitch to big league hitters right now, so they could do it if they wanted to.
