Buffalo’s team OPS of .624 is good enough for only 17th out of 20 International League teams.

Wow. With the bases loaded, one out, and Dunedin down by a run, Yeuni Munoz hit a 107 exit velo grounder right at the 3B, and the game ends on a 5-2 DP.

With all the walks the Jupiter pitchers have issued to Dunedin hitters this week, Jupiter pitching coach Ryan Feierabend has easily gotten in his daily 10K steps with trips to the mound.

Mabel likes watching baseball. She’s a keeper, this Quebec-born girl.

With the Jays game rained out tonight, I’m watching the Jays affiliates on the Firestick (I usually watch on my iPad). Buffalo’s picture quality is impressive.

Hey everyone. Just wanted to let you know that I will be helping out with the Around the Nest podcast this year, a regular look at the best stories around the Blue Jays minor league system. Watch for our first episode later this month. You won’t find this kind of Blue Jays content anywhere else.

Had a great email exchange with a publisher “The Howleyites,” my book about the 1926 Toronto Maple Leafs (not the hockey club). While they liked the proposal, books about minor league baseball have not proven profitable for them. I get that. /1

I love emails like this. I have an admittedly small but loyal following of my writing.

The issue with the challenge system is that you only get 2; lose them in the early innings and you’re out of luck later. But everyone I’ve talked to about it says it sharpens everybody’s knowledge of the strike zone.

Challenge system now. It works seamlessly in the minors.

It’s hard to put into words how dominant Khal Stephen was for Dunedin last night. Faced the minimum through 4, lots of 1st pitch strikes. Hung a CH for a HR in the 5th, his only mistake of the night. 9Ks in 6 IP. His FB is quickly becoming an overmatch for FSL hitters.

Stephen has already gathered a handful of scouts to watch his starts.

It’s April 10th, and Khal Stephen doesn’t have a lot left to prove in the Florida State League.

Buffalo has been postponed. Last night’s doubleheader was a frostbite affair.

Watched Fernando Perez’ NWL debut last night. The 11th (according to MLB Pipeline) ranked prospect was in command for 3 of his 4 IP.In the 3rd inning, his defence let him down, and he had some bad BABIP luck, allowed 3 unearned runs. Had a bit of trouble holding runners on, but otherwise was solid.

More parenting advice from Vlad Sr: In 2018, John Schneider said managing Jr and Bo at AA was like “being with a boy band.” After the season, the Jays wanted Jr to go to the Arizona Fall League. Vladdy, tired after a long season, turned it down. Sr called and said, “you’re going.” And he did.

Double was ruled an error by the 1B Brock Tibbets, but at 107 exit velo, it must have been a tough play (video didn’t catch it).

Game time temperature for the first game of Buffalo’s doubleheader (set to start at 4:35) this afternoon will be a balmy 3C, -1 with the windchill.

Watched Trey Yesavage’s start from last night this A.M. He had trouble locating his fastball, which touched 97. When he had it in the zone, hitters couldn’t touch it, for the most part. His secondaries were outstanding. If he can do a better job of establishing his 4-seamer….look out.

Asked someone in the Jays organization what they did to help Easton Lucas turn things around. “I wish it was some specific we could bottle up and give to all the guys.” The truth is, he’s pitched well since joining the organization. Maybe they just gave him the space to figure things out.

Add 3 HBP, and you’ll understand why Dunedin scored 19 runs on only 9 hits.

It’s early and all that; pitchers are ahead of hitters, especially in the colder climate minor leagues. But there’s been a ton of good pitching performances in the Jays system so far, New Hampshire’s being the latest.
