Blue Jays Discussion: Post-post-Deadline Edition: The pitchers on the farm are impressing (Zeuch No-hitter/Pearson to AAA)

Tri-City has a disappointing logo.

Actually, most of the NWL logos are kind of disappointing. Except the Everett AquaSox. Theirs is outstanding.

I like Spoanke's.

I like Spoanke's.

It's a little boring.

I do like though that their secondary logos and alternate jersey write out the name/wordmark in Salish. That's a cool and classy touch.

It's not this though:

Low-key awesomeness to the frog's cap logo (which is also the team's part-time on-field cap logo) that's a trident-shaped "E" that is just the Mariners' trident-shaped "M" turned 90 degrees.

Really, C's president guy?

an AJ Burnett comp scares the hell out of me. I'll be disappointed if KLoffenstein's ceiling is AJ Burnett.

I don't see Burnett in Kloffenstein at all.

I thought the Spokane's logo was the Salish one all the time.

I think they always wear the Salish wordmarked uniforms when they're in their road grays, but usually the main logo doesn't have the words in it, it's just the baseball with the western-style "S" in it.

GCL ended early due to the incoming hurricane. Here is a graph I saw about Martinez.

Someone should #AskRicky what he thinks about having worse career pitching stats than Tri-City Dust Devils manager and former Blue Jays teammate Mike McCoy.

 

[The Nemesis]

Kloffenstein sucks.

 

[The Nemesis]

Potential final line for Kloffenstein tonight:

6 IP, 5 H, 3 R (2 ER), 1 BB, 8 K. 89 pitches (59 strikes). His ERA for the season now sits at 2.24

Bust.

 

[Canada4Gold]

3 runs? That's such a Kloffensive outburst against Adam

Not sure I buy that should be 2 earned runs though, that"s an error not a single plus and error and it's 1 earned run only on the HR, and I love the 8 K's.

 

[The Nemesis]

The AJ Burnett comps are real.

 

[The Nemesis]

C's showing their Blue Jays roots letting this game slip away.

Gotta start training them young

 

[The Nemesis]

PSA: It's really hard to clear the wall in right-center at the Nat.

 

[The Nemesis]

C's tie it up in the bottom of the 7th. And by the looks of it half the crowd already left

 

[The Nemesis]

The Jays is strong with this team, giving up the 2-run HR to surrender the lead in a game where a loss also means the death of their playoff hopes.

 

[The Nemesis]

Oh my god, stop the presses. It's actually a good time to bunt. It's a rare instance where I'm not going to chastise a team for intentionally bunting!

 

[The Nemesis]

Mike McCoy should pull the Tri-City pitcher and put himself in 0.00 career MLB ERA.

Can you get this spammer outta here

 

[The Nemesis]

C's win!

ND for Kloffenstein because he's not a winner

 

[The Nemesis]

Alek Manoah cursing on live TV. Not a role model.

Nope. I'm drunk with power.

In news that will surprise no one, Keith Law has stated that Cavan Biggio isn't worth the roster spot.

I'm not going to link to the comment because it's on his website and doesn't need clicks. It's literally that - one sentence - in response to whether Biggio's debut changed his mind about not being a prospect.

I don't know how they actually compare as pitchers, but AJ Burnett would be a pretty amazing result for Kloffenstein: 40+ career fWAR, consistently above average starter with a few ~5 fWAR seasons. Anything close to that would be a massive success.
