For those asking about Nolan Perry - who was the scheduled starter for Vancouver today - thereβs no official word, but my bet would be heβs a bit banged up after starting twice last week.
David Shields had a fantastic bounce-back start yesterday after giving up 4 ER in his previous start.
10 strikeouts across 5.2 IP, Shields only surrendered 1 ER while walking 0 batters.
Season ERA is now down to 3.91, with 57 strikeouts in 53 IP.
Washington Nationals prospect Miguel Sime Jr. was making High-A look easy tonight. If he can keep throwing strikes enough, he can easily be a Top 50 prospect π π₯

Kazuma Okamoto hits the first Blue Jays homer into the 500 level since Josh Donaldson on May 30, 2017.
Brandon Lowe hit the previous two fifth-deck drives in Toronto, on July 25, 2024 and April 12, 2019.
One of the #Brewers top 2026 international signings is heating up π₯ SS Ricki Moneys (#50) launched his first pro HR yesterday, a grand slam, and added another HR (video below) in the 9th inning of todayβs game π

Toronto Blue Jays prospect Carson Messina made his Single-A debut yesterday. His fastball sat mostly 94-96 MPH and was elite with 18-20" of iVB. Reminds me a lot of Gage Wood. Hopefully we see the velo up in the 97-99 MPH range consistently

I've never given up on Daniel Espino. He is a special arm and will provide dynasty value eventually out of the bullpen. Maybe one day he goes back to being a starter, but he has an upside of a Grant Taylor back-end of the bullpen guy. π€ he hits the ground running

The #Guardians are set to call up flamethrowing RHP Daniel Espino for what would be his MLB debut, per @tim_stebbins.
The 2019 first-rounder ranked as high as MLB's No. 16 prospect in 2023 but missed almost all of four seasons ('22-'25) due to injury: atmlb.com/4fGVm7J

Daniel Eagen had a bit if a rocky outing, but still turned in his second straight good start. He reminds me a lot of Davis Martin

Toronto Blue Jays prospect Johnny King had another solid start tonight at High-A. Used his changeup more and it looked much better at times tonight. Command better than the line, was missing fastballs up with two strikes

Or something like that!

Talon Haley seemed to be incorporating his changeup a lot more in his start last night. He got a bunch of whiffs on it.
His swinging strikes have continued to improve with each game (double digits in his last 3 starts)

The 22 year old is a former IFA signee back in 2022 by the Jays from Venezuela.
FB sits 96 touches 99 with good cut-ride action.
Upper 80s slider with tons of vertical drop.

The Chicago White Sox don't need to make trades, they just need to keep calling up their stud prospects
Braden Montgomery is headed to the show
He's a power bat that hits for average as well. The groundball rate is high, but the power can be elite if that improves
