It has been a disastrous season for the Toronto Blue Jays as a whole, but it has been very bad as well for the top pitching prospects down in the minor leagues.
The injury bug has really plagued the pitchers who are trying to work their way up to the Major Leagues, as Ricky Tiedemann (forearm, TBD), Brandon Barriera (elbow surgery), Kendry Rojas (shoulder, back but 16.1 IP), Adam Macko (forearm, TBD), and Landen Maroudis (elbow surgery) have all been sidelined with serious ailments.
Truly unbelievable year for #BlueJays pitching pipeline.
No. 1 Ricky Tiedemann (forearm, TBD)
No. 4 Brandon Barriera (elbow surgery)
No. 10 Kendry Rojas (shoulder, back but 16.1 IP)
No. 11 Adam Macko (forearm, TBD)
No. 12 Landen Maroudis (elbow surgery)
Sprinkle in Orelvis too.

We do not know why this is happening, but all we can do it hope they get better soon and it doesn't affect their futures.
