Included on Opening Day rosterZeuch said Monday that he was informed he would be included on the Blue Jays' Opening Day roster, Scott Mitchell of TSN.ca reports.
ImpactZeuch revealed the news after he was roughed up in his final start of the spring Monday against the Phillies, giving up five runs on nine hits and a walk over three innings. The poor showing inflated his spring ERA to 5.40, but it won't necessarily take Zeuch out of the running for a temporary spot in the rotation. Zeuch tentatively lines up to start against the Yankees on Saturday or Sunday, when Toronto will first require a replacement in the rotation for Robbie Ray (elbow). Rather than asking Zeuch to start, the Blue Jays could opt for a bullpen game instead, with the right-hander likely being an option to cover multiple innings in relief.

Solid numbers this springChatwood has posted a 2.35 ERA and 6:1 K:BB over 7.2 Grapefruit League innings.
ImpactThe right-hander has been a starting pitcher most of his career, but after coming over from the Cubs in the offseason, Chatwood has been converted to a full-time relief role by the Jays. With Kirby Yates (elbow) out of the picture, Chatwood could find himself seeing plenty of high-leverage work alongside Jordan Romano and Rafael Dolis.

Wrapping up strong springPhelps has posted a 5.14 ERA and 12:0 K:BB through seven Grapefruit League innings.
ImpactThe ERA is inflated by two untimely homers, but otherwise Phelps has been dealing this spring. The veteran righty was expected to fill a middle-relief role for the Jays this season, but with Kirby Yates (elbow) out of the picture, Phelps could join the high-leverage mix alongside Jordan Romano and Rafael Dolis if he keeps piling up strikeouts.
