Nate Pearson, RHP, Blue Jays: Pearson's season officially ended almost as soon as it started. He recorded five outs in his 2018 debut on May 7 before he was hit by a comebacker that fractured his right forearm. But Pearson did return to the mound yesterday for an exhibition game between Lansing and Michigan State's baseball team. In the Crosstown Classic, Pearson hit the first batter he faced, then recorded back-to-back fielder's choices. After that he struck out the final four batters he faced. According to Lansing Lugnuts radio play-by-play man Jesse Goldberg-Strassler, Pearson touched 102 mph during his short stint. The Lugnuts are in the Midwest League's playoffs, so there is a chance that Pearson could pitch in the playoffs. Considering all the time he missed, Pearson makes perfect sense as a late addition to Arizona Fall League rosters.
