"The Blue Jays appear to be headed to arbitration with projected No. 2 starter Brandon Morrow and reliever Casey Janssen after contract negotiations broke down prior to Tuesday's deadline for the exchange of salary figures.

The pitchers were the only two of five arbitration-eligible players who failed to reach one-year deals for the upcoming season by the 1 p.m. deadline.

Second baseman Kelly Johnson ($6,375,000), outfielder Ben Francisco ($1,537,500) and swingman Carlos Villanueva ($2,277,500) all signed Tuesday to avoid arbitration hearings, which will take place from Feb. 1-21."
