[BabbaGanoush]

Nice to see Drabek continuing to not walk batters.

[Pete_7]

Seems like they are being more careful with Drabek than Hutchison

[BabbaGanoush]

oh ya for sure. drabek started his rehab earlier and is only at 65 pitches while hutch is at 75 in less time. probably cause this is drabeks second TJS.

Sanchez: All's good; little blister "would have just gotten worse". Didn't want it to be an issue come playoffs. #BlueJays

Well Sanchez is going to pitch in more meaningful games this year than he would if he was on the Jays.

Hutch for Buffalo tonight.

Barreto makes it to BA's Prospect Hotsheet this week

8. Franklin Barreto, ss, Blue Jays

Team: Rookie-level Gulf Coast League Blue Jays

Age: 17

Why He’s Here: .400/.483/.960 (10-for-25), 1 3B, 2 HR, 10 R, 6 2B, 5 RBIs, 2 BB, 6 SO, 1-for-1 SB

 

The Scoop: Everywhere Barreto goes, he hits, which is why he ranked as the No. 1 prospect on the international amateur market last year. The Blue Jays signed him for $1.45 million out of Venezuela and put him in the Gulf Coast League, where he’s come every bit as advertised. Barreto has an efficient swing and a knack for finding the barrel, which has helped him hit .292/.363/.500 in 38 games as one of the youngest players in the league. Barreto already has 17 errors, but scouts always felt he would be better served at second base or in center field, so the defensive struggles were expected. The exciting tool is Barreto’s bat, which should have him moving quickly.

 

Mitch Nay makes the "In the team photo" section

Mitch Nay, 3b, Blue Jays:

 

A broken foot precluded Nay, Toronto’s sandwich-round pick in 2012, from making his pro debut last summer. Finally getting back to live action with Rookie-level Bluefield, Nay’s hitting .316 with five homers in 44 games and had a stretch of four straight multi-hit games from Aug. 1-4. He finished the week at 9-for-22 with two homers and five walks in seven games.

 

Former Jay Descalfani makes the list at 12, and JP Crawford (who the Jays were considering drafting at 10) is off to a hot start coming in at number 10.

 

12. Anthony DeSclafani, rhp, Marlins

Team: Double-A Jacksonville (Southern)

Age: 23

Why He’s Here: 1-1, 0.68, 13 1/3 IP, 13 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 11 SO, 3 BB

 

The Scoop: DeSclafani was primarily a reliever in college at Florida, where his results didn’t always measure up to his stuff—he could get up to 96 mph on the radar gun yet had a 4.33 ERA his draft year in 2011. He converted to starting upon turning pro, and the results have come around in 2013 after DeSclafani was one of the seven players headed from the Blue Jays to the Marlins in their massive deal last offseason. DeSclafani pitched his way out of the high Class A Florida State League, going 4-2, 1.67, and he’s held his own in Double-A since being promoted in June. He had back-to-back quality starts this week, highlighted by seven shutout innings against Tennessee last Friday.

10. J.P. Crawford, ss, Phillies

Team: Rookie-level Gulf Coast League Phillies

Age: 18

Why He’s Here: .440/.533/.680 (11-for-25), 3 2B, 1 HR, 4 R, 9 RBIs, 5 BB, 5 SO, 1-for-1 SB

 

The Scoop: The Phillies have to be pleased with the early returns on Crawford, the 16th overall pick in the draft two months ago. He doesn’t have a conventional lefty swing, but he makes consistent contact and has a patient hitting approach. He’s hitting .375/.466/.518 through 30 games, showing he can use the whole field with occasional extra-base pop.

9 baserunners with 2 ks is nothing special

9 baserunners with 2 ks is nothing special

6 innings, 1 extra base hit, 9 groundouts-2 flyouts and no runs is a pretty good start.

I think Ang mentioned Barreto had a great day

[flafson]

I wonder how Tellez got a triple, maybe he has similar attitude like Prince Fielder?

[imsorry4beatinU]

Gustavo Pierre hit for the cycle last night

[Atothe]

You don't like outs?

In what world does 9 baserunners = outs? Im gonna be honest here and say Im harder on canadians. They have to prove themselves much harder then ithers
