Friday saw another Vancouver win and the win keeps Vancouver in first spot. However Vancouver finish the first half next week with three games against Eugene, the team just behind them in the playoff race. No other affiliate is in line for a playoff spot. Dunedin scored three runs in the bottom of the eleventh for a win. Edward Duran had the winning hit, his third hit of the game.

Buffalo and the FCL Jays both scored three runs in their last at-bat for two walk off wins. Dunedin won both ends of a doubleheader. Vancouver ran up the score on Spokane as they push for a first half title. New Hampshire were the only duds on the night.

Vancouver are currently in first place with a 1.5 game lead as of early Friday night. They have won eight straight games. The first half ends next Thursday, five games remain.

Trey Yesavage made his first AA start. He had a rough first inning before settling down. Similarly Gage Stanifer made his first start for Vancouver and like Yesavage he had a tough first inning. Vancouver had the only win on Thursday.

Dunedin’s game was postponed, New Hampshire, Vancouver, and Buffalo won.

Tuesday saw Buffalo and Dunedin finish on the wrong end of a one-run game. New Hampshire needed overtime to win while Vancouver won to pull into a three-way tie for first place in the Northwest League. The F-Jays and Dominican Jays Blue also won to give the affiliates a winning record on the night.


Khal Stephen has a 2-0 record with a 2.25 earned run average for Vancouver.

Baseball America says the farm system of the Toronto Blue Jays is "on the upswing".


Trey Yesavage is the top-rated pitcher in the Blue Jays farm system.

Buffalo and Vancouver won. Buffalo hit four home runs and Vancouver two. New Hampshire and Dunedin lost.

Other than the FCL team it was wins all around. Rafael Sanchez threw a no hitter for New Hampshire. Grant Rogers pitched well in game two. There were eleven home runs hit by Jays players.

The Sanchez home run was quite the turnaround for a player who gave up ten runs his last time out.

Trey Yesavage and Gage Stanifer had 15 K's between them as Vancouver won. Austin Cates had another excellent start and Tucker Toman homered for Dunedin's win. And Brandon Barriera made his first start as he returns from Tommy John surgery. Barriera has not impressed so far in his professional career. Last year was supposed to be a big, prove it, year but he got hurt. Now he needs to show his stuff this season. Buffalo's pitching was awful.

Every team won (although Dunedin did lose one game of a doubleheader). The starting pitchers were good and several hitters had big nights, including Orelvis Martinez. And Juaron Watts-Brown is adding his name to the list of future Blue Jay starting pitchers.
