Minor League Recap | May 24, 2017

Since King hasn't done one of these in a few days and people were asking, I decided I'd quickly put together a thread until he gets back. These threads won't be very detailed or as nice as the ones King does, I'm just going to be compiling the box scores from mlbfarm.com (shout out to NJH for posting the link in the prospect thread).

Twistedlogic, the hero Blue Jays message board deserves!

King has been busy. He recently got into the used fidget spinner sales industry. I have been told he will mia until shortly after the all star break.

Maese with 12K's, very nice.

[Slade]

Greene such a strange starter.

[Daniel Labude]

Greene hit 102 and 101 mph. I can only assume most of his outings have been trying to control that speed into the strike zone. So much potential that needs to be harnessed. Need a Sanchez type transformation Edited May 25, 2017 by LetTheBallFly

Satchel Page?

Satchel Page?

 

Lol, don't know how Sanchez was auto corrected to Sacher

Jarred Cosart used to hit 3 digits with his heat

But is it the one​ it needs right now?

Henderson Alvarez used to hit triple digits in New Hampshire too. Don't think he got anywhere near that when he got to the bigs. I'm thinking the gun is hot.

I've seen multiple reports from different scouts that he is throwing that fast on some pitches. Plus radar guns are suppose to better all around now than back then I think...who knows though

I don't remember any reports of Alvarez hitting 100mph.

Pete Walker seems like a shady source. I do remember Alvarez throwing hard before the arm trouble now that I think of it though.

I'd love to see Roemon Fields turn into something. He's a treat to watch with his Kevin Pillar style catches and outrageous speed on the basepaths. The bat will determine if he ever makes it up for an extended period.

So many similarities to Jarrod Dyson. If he can post a wRC+ > 85 at the ML level, he'd be a very valuable piece.

I got engorged thinking we were getting MiLB recaps daily again, however I am now flaccid at the realization this is not the case.
