Kirk and Lopez had the day off.

 

Juan De Paula had a pretty good line: 5 IP, 5 H, 1 ER, 1 BB, 6 K, 79 pitches-46 strikes.

Also, Hagen Danner doubled today, which is notable because he has 6 hits this season - all of which have been XBH (2B, 3B, 4 HR). He struck out three times.

He obliterated a ball yesterday. Felt like it went 450 feet.

The cameraman s*** the bed on this one, but lawdy, lawdy, this baby is spanked.

Man, I really hope we have some legit pitching at AA and high A.

 

The Bisons are scoring 8 to 6 runs a game and still losing.. Really bad record with such a great offensive line-up really scares me..as to our near term pitching options...

Trent Thornton is going to help Bisons' pitching the next monday.

Yea, but I thought we had a log jam.. Now if Thornton is not pitching well, Aceucki on 60 day IL, SRF sucking, Richard (still hurt?) we are not so deep anymore..

It's pretty much a given that the Jays will use openers this season, possibly a lot. Just depends on when. Injuries and ineffectiveness from their starters will speed up the process.

Pannone, Gavi,?

His arm angles are different for fastball/non fastballs again, but his command is more of the issue lately vs better teams.

I was thinking about them, but then your robbing Peter to pay Pablo.. They have been effective out of the pen. You would also have to stretch them out...

Carter Kieboom reached base 5 times in a AAA game yesterday.

 

He's slashing .422/.536/.711 in 12 games.

Rotations

 

Bisons: SRF, Waguespack, Paulino, Morimando, Merryweather (DL), Zeuch (DL)

Other arms: Barnes, Romano, Dermody, Jackson, Copping, Isaacs, Fisk

 

Half the rotation is either DLed or called up (Thronton/Borucki/Pannone). But yes it’s not exactly a group that inspires confidence. SRF and Paulino are looking like future relievers. There’s some upside in the bullpen but who really knows. Barnes and Dermody have been called up before. Romano is a converted starter, they still might stretch him out.

 

 

Fisher Cats: Murphy, Diaz, Logue, Perez, Sopko

Other arms: McClelland, Snead, Tyce, Case, Fishman, Baker, Rios

 

There’s some prospect arms at this level with potential, it’s actually a pretty stacked rotation for AA. Some flaws and upside with the names here. Perez’s control issues suggest reliever, it’s basically the SRF experiment all over again. There’s two flamethrowers in Murphy and McClelland. Diaz, Logue, Sopko are potential back end rotation arms.

 

We’ll have a better idea at the end of the year, some pitching prospects don’t succeed their first try in AA. It’s difficult to put a schedule when they’ll come up.

 

 

Dunedin: Pearson, Allgeyer, Castillo, Larkins, Buffo (DL)

Other arms: Dillon, Maese

 

Pearson needs no introduction. Castillo is really young. Larkins and Allgeyer have been solid to start the season. Buffo is on the DL. There’s some promise here, but these guys are at least 2+ years away.

 

 

I’ve mentioned before that we’re thin at pitching prospects. To be more specific, we’re thin in high-end pitching talent. We’ve got a bunch of the backend rotation / possibly convert into reliever variety.. which is still nice to have considering we paid 5-10M for fifth starter material in 2017-2018.

 

The only elite guys incubating in the farm system are Nate Pearson (A+) and maybe Eric Pardinho (A-DL). Adam Kloffenstein I have no idea, we will see.

 

As of now, if Stroman and Sanchez leaves in free agency.. the rotation is pretty unpleasant going forward. It’s quite mandatory for the Jays to acquire some high-end pitching talent via trade deadline, or draft, during this rebuild. Unless of course they are finally willing to toss out 20M-30M contracts to premium pitchers in free agency, which Shatkins are unlikely to do. And if they’re willing to go that far, why not just sign Stroman and Sanchez?
