Jays Announce Minor League Award Winners

December 21st, 2012.

The Toronto Blue Jays announced today the annual player of the year awards for each level in their minor league system:

AAA Syracuse
CF Rick Bjork
.316 41 HR 135 RBI (with AAA Syracuse)
Drafted in the 1st round 21st overall in the 2008 First Year Player Draft the 24 year old is poised to capture a roster spot with the Jays in 2013. He can play all 3 outfield positions and can hit for power and average. He will likely split time with CF Vitantonio Ardinghi in 2013.

AA New Hampshire
1B Juan Campos
.296 27 HR 128 RBI (with AA New Hampshire)
The 24 year old was a 2nd round pick 60th overall in 2012 out of the University of the University of Iowa and is starting to find his swing. He will get an invitation to Spring Training and could compete for the 1B position vacated by the departure of 1B Nathan Wilder. If he does not make the team he will likely start for AAA Syracuse in 2013.

High A Dunedin
LF Victor Glenn
.280 5 HR 59 RBI (with A Dunedin)
The 22 year old was a 3rd round pick 86th overall in 2009 amd has moved slowly through the organization. He is starting to come around offensively and may have put himself back on the radar with a good season in Dunedin. He is still only 22 so he has time to develop and will lilely start the ytear back with Dunedin in 2013.

Low A Lansing
CF Rodrigo Fernandez
.296 9 HR 78 RBI (with A Lansing)
The 21 year old was 3rd round pick 90th overall in 2010 and is progressing nicely and with another solid season has moved steadily up my depth chart. Look for him to start at Dunedin next year and he could see AA by the end of 2013.

Short Season A - Auburn
SP Manny Feliz
5-1 1 SV 4.59 ERA (with SA Auburn)
The 22 year old signed as a non-drafted free agent in 2008 and has not moved quickly at all but has finally started to show some improvement. He spent his first 2 season in Pulaski before finally moving up to Auburn this season. He put up solid numbers and will likely spend one more season witht he double days before moving up to Lansing.

Pulaski - Rookie League
2B Michael Everly
.316 1 HR 14 RBI (Pulaski (R))
My 3rd round pick 90th overall in 2012 from The University of Northern Illinois did very well in his first professional season. He did not hit for much power but I expect that it will come around. He will likely head to Low A Lansing for the start of 2013 but could move up quickly if his hot start continues.
