"Corbin, 36, has been one of MLB's most reliable innings eaters over the last decade-his effectiveness during those innings has been suspect, though."
"Nobody should be expecting Corbin to be an ace. They probably shouldn't even expect him to be average on the mound, considering he's been well below that for years now."
"A rubber arm is just what the doctor ordered for the Blue Jays in the short term with so many starting pitchers sidelined."
"The most likely scenario for Corbin is that he's optioned to the minor leagues once Yesavage and Berríos are back."
The Toronto Blue Jays signed Patrick Corbin to a one-year deal to enhance their pitching depth after injuries sidelined several starting pitchers. Corbin, 36, has been a reliable innings eater but has struggled with effectiveness, posting a 4.40 ERA last season. Despite not being expected to perform at an ace level, his availability is crucial for the team. Corbin's role may shift to the minor leagues once injured pitchers return, but he could also serve as a long reliever if he performs well.
