Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Jeremy Beasley has been recalled by the organization on Wednesday. The 25-year-old has been bouncing back and forth from the minors and majors all season long. He has not pitched well during his small sample size with the Jays this season. However, Beasley could be asked to take on a bigger role with A.J. Cole (neck) heading to the injured list. This season, Beasley has allowed five runs in less than five innings of work. He can be avoided for the moment in basically all fantasy formats.
Blue Jays Acquiring Jeremy Beasley From Diamondbacks
The Toronto Blue Jays are acquiring right-handed pitcher Jeremy Beasley from the Arizona Diamondbacks on Thursday, according to a source. The 25-year-old was designated for assignment earlier this week and will report to Toronto's alternate site to provide depth with a fastball-splitter combination that plays as a starter or a reliever. Beasley was a 30th-round pick out of Clemson back in 2017 by the Los Angeles Angels. He allowed two hits with a strikeout in one-third of an inning in his only major league appearance last year. Beasley had a 9.00 ERA in three innings pitched in spring training this season for the Snakes. With Double-A Mobile and Triple-A Salt Lake in 2019, he had a 4.49 ERA, 1.45 WHIP, 115 strikeouts and 48 walks in 122 1/3 innings over 26 appearances (25 starts).
