Blue Jays Stress-Test Roster Depth Ahead of WBC

Manager John Schneider acknowledged the team's infield feels "thin" but praised starting pitching and outfield depth. The WBC provides a chance for bench players and minor-leaguers to showcase their skills.

A specific focus is placed on the catcher position. Alejandro Kirk is locked in, but the backup situation is vulnerable. Tyler Heineman is the primary backup, though Brandon Valenzuela and C.J. Stubbs offer minor-league depth.
