Toronto Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said the plan is for starting pitcher Marcus Stroman (shoulder) to start the fourth game of the season. Although not yet official, it's assumed that starter J.A. Happ will receive the Opening Day nod. Stroman threw two successful innings against the Canadian team on Saturday and should be fine for the start of the regular season, barring any setbacks. While Stroman doesn't strike out a ton of hitters, he makes his living posting low ERAs due to plenty of ground balls and weak contact.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

New York Yankees starting pitcher Marcus Stroman (knee) received a cortisone shot in his swollen knee. Manager Aaron Boone noted that he hopes Stroman's timeline is not "too long." The Yankees placed Stroman on the 15-day injured list on Saturday following his outing on Friday evening. On Friday, Stroman allowed four hits, three walks, and five earned runs across just 2/3 innings of work against the Giants. After the contest, Stroman said that his knee was bothering him during this outing. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status but should expect him to miss at least the next two weeks of action. When he does return, Stroman may not be guaranteed a spot in the rotation as he has allowed four or more runs in two of his three starts this season. As a result, he is not worth stashing in any standard format.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

The New York Yankees placed right-handed pitcher Marcus Stroman (knee) on the 15-day injured list due to right knee inflammation. In a corresponding move, the Yankees promoted right-handed pitcher Allan Winans to the MLB roster. Stroman struggled in his start on Friday evening against the Giants and noted that his knee was bothering him during this outing. He was only able to tally two outs and allowed four hits and five earned runs. He allowed a home run to outfielder Jung Hoo Lee and served up three free passes. During his first two starts of the season, Stroman logged eight 2/3 innings and allowed seven earned runs and posted a 4:6 BB:K. With Stroman hitting the injured list, fantasy managers should expect Clarke Schmidt (shoulder) to take his spot in the rotation when he is cleared to return next week.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

New York Yankees right-hander Marcus Stroman (knee) went for X-rays on his left knee after being pulled in the first inning of Friday's 9-1 loss to the San Francisco Giants. According to Yankees manager Aaron Boone, Stroman was sent for testing on his left knee and said his knee was "bugging" him. This could explain Stroman's poor performance on Friday. The 33-year-old allowed five earned runs on four hits and three walks while striking out one over 2/3 of an inning in Friday's loss. Stroman owns an 11.57 ERA, 2.04 WHIP, and a 7:7 K:BB over his first three starts. He is considered day-to-day for now, and his availability won't be known until the X-ray results are available. Fantasy managers can move on from Stroman in most leagues.--Brad Camara - RotoBaller

New York Yankees right-handed pitcher Marcus Stroman is expected to open the season in the starting rotation. With Luis Gil (lat) expected to miss a significant period of time at the start of the campaign, Stroman is the top candidate to replace him in the rotation. Last season, the 33-year-old made his Yankees debut and posted a 4.31 ERA with a 1.47 WHIP across 154 2/3 innings. He tallied 113 punchouts with a modest 8.9 percent walk rate. While he generated groundballs at a strong 49.9 percent rate, he was unable to limit hard contact as he generated a high 40.2 percent hard-hit rate. Stroman also generated a 4.94 xERA and a .271 xBA which were both well below the average marks. Prospect pitcher Will Warren could also make a push to see starting opportunities but given Stroman's experience, he is the top candidate. As a result, he will have value as a streaming option in deeper leagues but carries low strikeout upside.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller
