This past weekend, the Blue Jays saw the return of one of their top pitching prospects when Nate Pearson was called back up with the rosters expanding. Pearson made two appearances, both in the bullpen, which is the role he will finish the season in.
The right-hander has come up through the organization as a starting pitcher and was once thought of as the potential ace of the staff for the next half-decade.
