#BlueJays, at payroll limit, will not pursue Lohse due to concerns about Romero. Happ, next in line, pitching well this spring.

How likely is he to repeat his performance from last season?

He won't have enough leash to be anywhere near as bad as last season. If he's that terrible again he'll be out of a job by May.
EDIT: for some reason I thought that was referencing Romero. As for Lohse, he's not likely to repeat his performance. Certainly not his ERA. With Happ already a surplus starter, I doubt Lohse would want to sign here anyway. I mean, he'd be decent, I'm sure. Probably better than Buehrle/Romero/Happ. I just don't see it happening. The first round pick is protected but the money would just be too much.
