EDGE Analysis

The Blue Jays were proposing a $3.1 million salary, but the arbiter sided with Stroman, who is considered by some to be the team's No. 1 starter. This will be the second year in a row that a strong finish to the prior season has Stroman generating a lot of buzz in drafts as a breakout candidate. He posted a 4.37 ERA last year, but his fielding independent numbers were much stronger and he notched a 3.89 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 83 strikeouts over 88 innings in the second half.
