Stroman is at odds with New York's front office, a situation Blue Jays fans should be familiar with.

Yankees pitcher, after a two-inning live batting practice session Tuesday, said 'I'm trying to throw 200 innings, so this is a building point.''

The time is nearing for Marcus Stroman, who will soon pitch in Spring Training with the New York Yankees in a sort of test to see how ready he is to be a starter. It’s worth noting that weeks ago, Marcus Stroman made it clear that he didn’t want to be a reliever and that his sole focus is as a starter.
