f*** you Adam Morrison, some guy beated you

Stuffwise the kid reminds me of a little Stroman. Smallish righty with low to mid 90s heat, a plus breaking ball, and feel for a changeup. I'm a little iffy on his makeup but I'll take the power stuff at only a 400k bonus any day.

Listed at 6'1", 195lbs. Not the ideal pitchers frame but, I wouldn't call that small, definitely not Stroman small (5'9"). Semantics though, I like his stuff for $400k as well. Now hopefully he can stay healthy (I'm looking at you Jamie Evans).

And he's all over twitter just like Stroman

[TheHurl]

He's still rehabing, IIRC he had a setback

 

I truly hate that he's stuck with us this long. Just dump him and hope he clears waivers.

Why? Perez was great last year.

Not sure if it's been posted yet but I found a couple of vids of Hollon from last year.

So he's the guy who has a top projected pick before he got hurt. Looks like he has a pretty good curve and decent movement on his fastball, although that might just be the camera angle.

Shane Dawson, who dominated Bluefield has been promoted to Vancouver

 

Nice, finally someone else to follow in Vancouver

About time. Admit i have a bit of a local bias since he played here in Lethbridge when he was drafted, but his numbers are ridiculous for rookie ball

Matt Nuzzo, a former jays minor leaguer's career has turned to this

 

 

Creep much? You know everyone in the minors don't make it to the Show....

GCL Blue Jays were no-hit today, and won the game 1-0

Doubleheader: 1st games no-hit, 2nd game just one hit lol

[Mikeleelop]

Finished with 3 in the 2nd game. Barretto was 1 for 4 and is down to .269

 

Wish we drafted a few position players

[Angrioter]

Lol what? I followed him back when he was in the jays minor leagues. His tweet popped up on my timeline so I posted it. That doesn't make me a creep. I did unfollow him though.

 

No f***ing s*** not everyone in the minors makes the show.

 

Only 2%

[theblujay]

Not really an interesting night on the farm.

[theblujay]

Rowdy had 3 walks this morning and he stole 3B.

[P2F]

This pleases me.

[flafson]

That's a good sign.

[GD]

I would love to see big 'ol Rowdy stealing 3rd.

 

When is Jake Brentz slated to make his debut, does anyone know?

[GD]

Hell yes. I can't wait. Easily one of my favorite prospects already.

 

For all the freaking out I did with our draft, getting Tellez and Brentz signed really made me eat my words.

Drabek had a great game

Great news

[theblujay]

Can anyone see the tweet in the post above? I'm trying to get it to work

[ElNik2013]

Great outing by Drabek. I wonder when they'll move him up to AA.

Yes I see it. Sometimes when you first post it you can't see it but if you refresh the browser you can see it

Drabek had a great game

 

 

 

 

His only base runner reached on an error. Hit 94 with ease according to the game notes

[theblujay]

Yes I see it. Sometimes when you first post it you can't see it but if you refresh the browser you can see it

 

Yeah I see it now. It took me 5 tries to get it to work right.

Wow crazy game for the Fishercats. They score 7 in the bottom of the ninth to tie it and then give up 4 in the top of the tenth.
