Article 1 (Formation of the Agreement) 1. “It (was) just a matter of getting back and knowing what I’m capable of, knowing what I can do and just a matter of going out and proving it,” Santos said.Software License Agreement This “Product” (this software and related documents such as manuals) is licensed to you by Terawell for use under the following terms. The numbers in Buffalo tell the story of a reliever with plenty of confidence: nine strikeouts and four walks with a couple of saves for his trouble.

Still, Santos was taken aback by the decision to designate him for assignment because he thought he “threw a lot better than the numbers say.”

It’s just really hard to get in a groove, get in a rhythm when you’re throwing so sporadically.” “I was (up) there, didn’t throw for 10 days, threw three pitches, waited another week and then threw a third of an inning. “It’s just the consistency of throwing,” Santos said. As management pointed out, he struggled with an inconsistent workload. Santos has a 7.78 earned-run average in 24 appearances for the Blue Jays this season after putting up a 1.75 ERA in 2013. “I feel like I’ve kind of figured that out a little bit.” “The command, I think for me, was I felt like my fastballs were just catching a little too much of the plate,” he said. Even with 17 walks in 19 major-league innings this season, Santos felt like he handed out more good ones than bad ones but also cut down on free passes since being sent to the minors.Īrticle content Andy Clayton-King/Getty Images “We hope this is a quick move, get some innings, get hot and come back because we certainly could use the help,” Anthopoulos said at the time.Īnthopoulos and manager John Gibbons pointed to Santos’s fastball command as something that needed to improve. Anthopoulos said Santos hadn’t pitched well but still possessed dominant stuff that needed to be refined with some more work than he was getting. The Blue Jays designated Santos for assignment on July 21, and once the 31-year-old cleared waivers he went to Buffalo.

In Santos’s place, the Blue Jays have blue-chip prospect Aaron Sanchez, who is one of five right-handers in the bullpen along with closer Casey Janssen, Chad Jenkins, Todd Redmond and Dustin McGowan. “I haven’t had any communication with them, which has been a little frustrating at times because I feel like I’ve ironed some of the things out that I needed to iron out and I’m just waiting for that opportunity to go back out there and hopefully do what I’m doing here,” Santos said. Satisfied with his performance with the Bisons, Santos has been left to wonder why the Blue Jays haven’t called him back up to the majors or given him any indication on when they might.
