Submit your questions for next week's mail bag!

The MLB playoffs are heating up, while back in Toronto the Blue Jays are (presumably) furiously preparing for one of the most important off-seasons in franchise history, which will begin at the conclusion of the World Series. So with such little news likely to trickle out of 1 Blue Jays way over the next couple of weeks, I figure it's high time to open up the ol' mail bag.
This, of course, means that I need some questions! So leave me your best Jays Q's in the comments below, and I'll supply a whole bunch of A's early on next week!

Yes, this is a way to hopefully entice as many folks as I can to upgrade to a paid subscription. And, yes, I'm sorry about that — and the spam, if you’re not a paid subscriber — but your boy's gotta eat! ⚾
Looking at the rotation for the year I see Pearson and Stripling as the perfect piggyback combo. Nate won’t be able to throw a full season and Stripling is so hit and miss that combining them seems like the best way to maximize their efficiency through the year. Inning lengths are flexible based on performance on any given outing and avoids taxing the bullpen on days that one doesn’t have it going.
Thanks for a great year of analysis. Honestly, between you and Tao, I’m pretty satisfied with my Jays articles.
So, the Jays had two names last off season that were tied pretty close to the organization that ended up signing elsewhere. Do you think Kim (Padres) or Brantley (Astros) should have been signed and would they have made a difference in the overall scheme of things?
Cheers!
