Brett Cecil turns 38 today. Brett was a Blue Jays first-round pick in 2007 , our second first-round pick. We got the selection for the loss of free agent Frank Catalanotto and would have five first-round picks . We picked Kevin Ahrens, J.P. Arencibia, Cecil, Justin Jackson, and Trystan Magnuson. Cecil was the last man standing in the majors. He came from the University of Maryland, where he had been the closer.
562 over the three seasons. The good part was that Brett was equally good against right-handed and left-handed batters. In 2015 he didn’t give up an earned run after June 21. 2016 could have been a lot better. Cecil had a crappy start to the season, missed most of May and June , was crappy again in July, and returned to being himself in August and September. Brett’s time with the Jays was injury-filled. He cut his hand on the blender, cut his thumb, and slicked chicken breasts .
