Bowden Francis' near no-no performance on Saturday continued an unreal run for the 28-year-old. Scott Mitchell has more how that could affect his status going into next season.
But Bowden Francis is trying to give the Toronto Blue Jays something to think about when the off-season starts.
The ovation was deserved, not just for Saturday’s performance, but the overall development over the course of this season. The next tier is made up of Francis and fellow right-hander Yariel Rodriguez, two arms the Jays have slowly built up this season and are now reaping some of the rewards.Not a whole lot that can be counted on, which makes Francis’ emergence all the more important.
Over his last four starts, Francis has allowed just eight hits and walked four, with three of those free passes coming Saturday. While it’s impossible to expect this level of consistency, Francis is proving his future could lie in the rotation, something that wasn’t obvious as recently as a couple of months ago.
