Blue Jays mailbag: Promoting prospect Alek Manoah the only logical choice with potential reward outweighing risk


The following questions have been edited for length and grammar:I hope Manoah does great, but this seems too fast. — Otto, MarkhamThe Jays are obviously taking an aggressive approach with Manoah, but he’s not being rushed as much as some might think. Walks haven’t been an issue for Manoah, he allowed just three free passes vs. 27 strikeouts across three starts for the Bisons. So instead of asking why waste Manoah in the majors, I’d be asking why waste his bullets in the minors? Unless there’s a righty/lefty match-up issue, there’s no reason to take out a reliever who just put up a zero in less than 15 pitches just because it’s the next inning.
