NEWS: Toronto reinstated RHPs Jordan Romano and Erik Swanson from the IL. RHP Mitch White was designated for assignment and RP Nate Pearson was optioned to AAA-Buffalo.

BHQ SPIN: After 2.5 weeks, the Jays’ bullpen is finally healthy and fully operational. Romano will reprise his role as a closer and should be a welcome return for fantasy owners who drafted him as a top-10 saves source. His 31% K%, 8% BB%, and 3.43 xERA bely his strong skill set, but his recent IL stints leave some room for caution moving forward. Swanson had 29 holds last season and will maintain a high leverage position in the Toronto bullpen as Doug Dennis described here.
