After being selected 11th overall by the Toronto Blue Jays in 2019, Manoah will make his MLB debut after just two seasons in the minor leagues. Making his Triple-A debut this season, Manoah has a 0.50 ERA in three starts. The Blue Jays will be on the road against the New York Yankees on Wednesday
Manoah had a 2.81 career ERA with the Mountaineers and was named the Big 12’s best pitcher in 2019 after going 9-4 with a 2.08 ERA and 144 strikeouts in 108 1/3 innings. After drafting Manoah, the Blue Jays sent him to the short-season Vancouver Canadians where he had a 2.65 ERA with 27 strikeouts in 17 innings in his first professional season. Manoah spent the 2020 season at Toronto’s alternate training site but was not called up to the majors.
