Pearson finally looking like the pitcher Blue Jays always wanted him to be
It's happening far later than anyone would have liked, but Nate Pearson is finally living up to the expectations he once had with the Toronto Blue Jays. Selected 28th overall by the Blue Jays in the 2017 MLB Draft, the 6-foot-6 Pearson was expected to become a star piece in their rotation. Pearson was able to crack the Blue Jays' opening-day roster after an underwhelming 2023 season in which he had a 4.85 ERA in 35 appearances.
