Anthony Kay Stats

The Toronto Blue Jays' Anthony Kay blanked the New York Yankees for two innings during the first spring training game of the year for the two clubs. He touched 97 mph in the first inning of the 6-4 win after averaging 93.7 mph with the heater last season. Traditionally a starter in the minors, the lefty spent 2020 pitching out of the bullpen at the MLB level. If Kay can see a sustained mile or two improvement on his fastball in 2021, along with his curveball and changeup, he could add depth to a starting rotation that has a lot of question marks after ace Hyun-Jin Ryu. If Kay fails to break camp as a starter, the early expectation is that he'll head to triple-A to remain stretched out in the event of an injury.

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Anthony Kay (back) has been scratched from his start against the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday. Kay threw on Tuesday and didn't feel good afterwards, so he'll miss this start due to back discomfort. He'll likely be done for the season with a week left. Thomas Pannone will draw the start on Tuesday, but he's not worth looking at as a streaming option.

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Anthony Kay will make his major league debut against the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday. The former first round pick was traded to the Blue Jays in the deal that sent Marcus Stroman to the Mets. He's been pitching well during his brief time in the minors with the Jays. The Rays aren't known for having a strong offense, so Kay could be a cheap streaming option for Saturday.
