I wonder if the Jays are behind in terms of rejuvenation regimens with pitchers coming back off of injuries? Once we get a minor league pitcher suffer any type of physical setback they seem to take an extended time to get "right" again.
There is such a thing as chronic workload versus acute workload for pitchers. The Jays seem to be of the mindset whereby they don't spend enough time on chronic workload, rush the prospect up through the system and then subject them to an acute workload. See Alek Manoah.
Now this is conjecture on my part but I don't have a lot a faith in the strength and conditioning practices of this org. Like the other aspects of our development system, we're probably behind the curve on this too.
Take a look at this piece written by a minor leaguer a few years ago. Very interesting stuff...
