Clay Buchholz is targeting early April for debut

Clay Buchholz (SP,RP - FA)

Clay Buchholz threw two innings in a minor-league game Friday, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports. Buchholz, who signed a one-year contract with the Blue Jays earlier in the month, fired 30 pitches in what was his first game action of spring.

Fantasy Impact
Buchholz isn't expected to be ready for the start of the season and he's scheduled to make at least a couple of more minor-league starts before being brought up by the Blue Jays. Buchholz is coming off one of his best seasons on the mound with Arizona last year. But the veteran starter has problems staying healthy and may struggle pitching in the AL East.
