It will be the first time in eight years that Roy Halladay won’t take the mound to open the Blue Jays’ season.
Now that Halladay has been traded to Philadelphia, manager Cito Gaston said Monday it was an easy decision because of the way Marcum has pitched this spring.
In two starts covering five shutout innings, he has allowed one hit and one walk while striking out four.

Cool. Either him or Romero would have made sense.

OT: Do you think Jansen could work as a Closer? and Long Relief if were in mess early.

I think this is the right decision. Marcum has the best track record out of all of the team's starters.

Proper decision. Romero hasn't earned it.

He's the best starter we have so it makes sense.
