| | | TORONTO: TORONTO (AP) - All winter long, the Blue Jays' primary concern was upgrading the starting pitching. The biggest story in Toronto this spring, though, is the one about the free agent arm that got away.
After months of inaction, the Blue Jays thought they'd landed right-hander Ervin Santana on a one-year deal in early March. But when injury concerns flared up in Atlanta, Santana signed a similar deal with the Braves instead.
''I think it's pretty obvious we were involved, it didn't work out. I'm trying to take the high road here,'' general manager Alex Anthopoulos said after Santana turned him down, saying he'd rather pitch in a spacious National League park than face AL East foes in Toronto's hitter-friendly dome.
Anthopoulos, who'd previously come ''extremely close'' to acquiring a starter through trade, must now start the season with almost the same staff he took north last year. Right-handed knuckleballer R.A. Dickey, the 2012 NL Cy Young winner, will be the opening-day starter again, while left-hander Mark Buehrle gets the third slot.
But none of the other three leading contenders, right-handers Brandon Morrow and Drew Hutchison, and left-hander J.A. Happ, have ever pitched 200 innings, and all three are coming off injuries. Morrow was limited to 10 starts last year by a nerve problem in his forearm, Hutchison hasn't pitched in the majors since elbow surgery in 2012, and Happ missed most of 2013 after being hit in the head by a line drive. Happ dimmed his own chances with an awful spring.
Santana, who has topped the 200-inning mark five times, would have given the Blue Jays valuable depth. Without him, there's more chance they'll need starts from touted but untested youngsters like Kyle Drabek, Sean Nolin, and Marcus Stroman.
Still, a confident Dickey insisted Santana would have been more ''bonus'' than ''necessity'' to Toronto. ''I feel like we have what we need,'' he said.
| | NY YANKEES: NEW YORK (AP) - Derek Jeter is saying goodbye. Masahiro Tanaka is saying hello.
Jacoby Ellsbury, Brian McCann and Carlos Beltran are new to the Bronx; David Robertson is new to the closer's role. And Alex Rodriguez is nowhere to be seen.
Mariano Rivera and Andy Pettitte have retired, and Robinson Cano has moved to Seattle.
After missing the playoffs for only the second time in 19 years, the New York Yankees will look a whole lot different. And for the first time since 1998, they don't have baseball's highest payroll.
''I think it is probably the biggest transition I've been through,'' manager Joe Girardi says.
For only the second time in team history and the first time since 1947, every position on opening day other than the mound will be manned by a different Yankees player on opening day than in New York's previous opener.
New York's forgettable 2013 season began with an 8-2 loss to Boston, with Kevin Youkilis at first, Cano at second, Eduardo Nunez at shortstop, Jayson Nix at third, Francisco Cervelli behind the plate, Vernon Wells in left, Brett Gardner in center and Ichiro Suzuki in right.
The only holdover for Tuesday's opener at Houston figures to be Gardner, who has shifted to left. The rest of the starting lineup figures to have McCann behind the plate, Mark Teixeira at first, Brian Roberts at second, Jeter at shortstop, Kelly Johnson at third, Ellsbury in center and Beltran in right.
CC Sabathia will be the constant on the mound. He's coming off the poorest of his 13 major league seasons at 14-13 with a 4.78 ERA.
''Nobody wants to go through that again,'' he says. ''It sticks with me a lot. Just being disappointed in not being able to help this team win. I feel like if I could have been a little better we might have made the playoffs. I blamed myself for a long time in the offseason and now I'm over it and ready to go this year.

*Blue Jays-Yankees Preview* ===========================
By JEFF BARTL STATS Senior Writer
Toronto (77-75) at New York (78-74), 4:05 p.m. EDT
Having to overtake at least three teams over their final 10 games in order to earn a playoff spot, it's looking more and more likely that the New York Yankees are going to miss the postseason in consecutive years for the first time in over two decades.
Accomplishing that unlikely task could be much more difficult without Jacoby Ellsbury.
The Yankees seek a fourth straight victory Saturday as they face starter Marcus Stroman and the reeling Toronto Blue Jays in the Bronx.
New York (79-74) is tied with Cleveland and trails Seattle, Oakland and Kansas City in the wild-card standings and would need plenty of help to return to the playoffs after not qualifying last season.
The Yankees haven't missed the postseason in back-to-back years since going from 1982-1993 without an appearance. They aren't giving up the fight yet, though, as Ellsbury homered, doubled and drove in three runs while Derek Jeter had two hits in Friday's 5-3 victory over Toronto.
"End strong, see what happens," said Adam Warren, who picked up his sixth save.
Ellsbury beat out a double play in the fourth inning but strained his right hamstring in the process. He stayed in for the rest of the inning but left in the top of the fifth.
Manager Joe Girardi said there's a "distinct possibility" Ellsbury, who signed a seven-year, $153 million contract in the offseason, could be done for the season.
New York hopes to overcome Ellsbury's absence as it faces Stroman (10-6, 3.80 ERA), who will get the start while appealing the six-game suspension he received for throwing a pitch over the head of Baltimore catcher Caleb Joseph in Monday's 5-2 loss.
The ban stems from the potential that Stroman was retaliating for teammate Jose Reyes, who contended that Joseph tried to step on his hand while sliding into home plate earlier in the game.
The right-hander maintains he wasn't trying to cause any problems.
"Fastball that just kind of slipped out of my hand," Stroman said. "It's late in the game. I got two big strikeouts. I'm a little excited, and trying to get out of the inning. I know it's possibly my last hitter. Just trying to execute a fastball in."
Stroman allowed five runs in six innings in that contest after winning his previous three starts with a 1.59 ERA. It's been an inconsistent six weeks for Stroman, who has allowed at least five runs four times while giving up two or fewer in the other four in that span.
The rookie is 1-1 with a 2.31 ERA in two starts against the Yankees, most recently allowing one run and three hits in eight innings of an 8-3 victory June 23.
Toronto (77-76) likely will need a solid performance out of Stroman as it looks to end a six-game losing streak that is its longest of the season. It has been outscored 33-15 in that stretch.
Edwin Encarnacion hit a two-run homer in the first inning and Reyes had three hits Friday.
The Blue Jays will look to bounce back against Chris Capuano, who has pitched well against them since joining the Yankees.
Capuano (2-3, 4.55) is 1-2 with a 4.56 ERA in 10 starts since being acquired July 24. He's coming off his best outing after allowing two hits over six scoreless innings of New York's 1-0 loss to Tampa Bay on Monday.
The left-hander has a 2.92 ERA in two starts against Toronto while with the Yankees, not picking up a decision in his first start July 26 and allowing three runs in 6 1-3 innings of a 6-3 win Aug. 29.
New York has won 19 of 21 at home against Toronto.
