The Toronto Blue Jays announced that their prospect pitcher Colby Martin is the latest player to get a promotion after putting up incredible numbers in Dunedin.
Blue Jays announce pitcher Colby Martin has been promoted to High-A
The Blue Jays announced that pitcher Colby Martin is headed to High-A with the Vancouver Canadians from Dunedin after an incredible first half of the season posting a 1.61 ERA so far.
Colby Martin's heater is crossing the border
After posting a 1.61 ERA in 20 games for Dunedin, Martin has been promoted to High-A @vancanadians !
The Blue Jays picked Martin in the 16th round of last year's draft and to say he is surpassing expectations is putting it lightly as he current has a 33.3K% across 22.2 innings pitched with a fastball clocking in over 96 MPH.
Colby Martin gets the promotion to Vancouver. He's posted a 1.61 ERA and 33.3 K% over 22.2 innings so far this season with Dunedin.
Last year's 16th-round pick sits just below 97 with his fastball and the offering can touch triple digits. Another nice development story in 2025.
Clearly this was a great late round pick for the Blue Jays who took a chance on the young pitcher and are already seeing great things from him which has led to this early promotion to High-A.
Should be interesting to see how he does in his first appearance in High-A ball.
