I just lost my work so I am really pissed off right now. Going to make it short and sweet.
Eric Eiland Profile:
Eiland is an 18-year old outfielder out of highschool. He is currently the only Jays highschooler or young prospect having some success with a .248 average. He does have 14 steals in 15 attempts and is a possible 5-tool prospect though he lacks power. He apparently played football in highschool as well and has chosen baseball. He was a 2nd round pick so we should take note of him as a decent prospect and may appear on the top 20 at year's end.
Jays Organizational Player of the day:
Julio Pinto
Julio Pinto is a 22-year old right handed starter in Lansing. He was first signed out of Venezuela in 2001 in the Cleveland organization. He currently has a 5+ ERA and while that isn't good he has a low home run rate and a good K/BB rate. He looks to have been unlucky as his BABIP is high. He may get an opportunity in Dunedin if things start going his way like tonight. He is still somewhat young.
