Former Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Marcus Stroman is having some serious problems with the New York Yankees as he finally arrived at Spring Training and called out the team in an interview.
Yankees manager Aaron Boone spoke to the media yesterday about Stroman stating that he expected him to miss the first few days of Spring Training due to all the trade rumors but understands why he might be upset.
Former Blue Jays pitcher Marcus Stroman is having serious issues with the Yankees
Stroman did not report to Spring Training when pitchers and catchers first arrived but it looks like he has finally showed up this morning and had to answer some serious questions from the media.
During an interview this morning, Stroman was asked if he would be willing to pitch in the bullpen since the Yankees rotation is currently full and it looks like he has no interest in that as he stated he is a starter.
Marcus Stroman was asked about the possibility of moving to the bullpen:
"I'm a starter. I won't pitch in the bullpen. I'm a starter"<
"I'm a starter. I won't pitch in the bullpen. I'm a starter"<
Marcus Stroman: «I'm a starter. I won't pitch out of the bullpen.»
This is a clear message to Yankees management that Stroman will either be a starting pitcher for the Yankees or that they should trade him as he has no desire to be a relief pitcher.
Despite Stroman simply trying to defend himself here, this does not help his case as he has been known as a problematic player in the past and all this does is add to that narrative.
While the chances of the Blue Jays bringing him back are pretty much done with the addition of Max Scherzer, there is a strong possibility that he will not be playing in New York this season.
