Stroman (9-10) tossed seven innings, allowing four runs on nine hits and two walks while striking out three Orioles in Thursday's loss.

EDGE Analysis

Stroman's final start of the season pushed him past the 200-inning mark, making him the only Jays' starter to reach the plateau this season. He finishes the year with a 4.37 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 169 strikeouts in 204 innings. The 25-year-old's 2016 campaign fell sizably short of most projections, but in retrospect, the expectations may have been unwarranted. Stroman's talent and potential are that of a future Cy Young candidate, but he made only 24 career starts -- and just four last season after tearing his ACL in March -- before hurling 32 games this season. The right-hander did improve in the second half -- he posted a 4.89 ERA prior to the break and a 3.68 ERA after the Midsummer Classic -- and he's on the right track to a long-term success.
