Dunedin Media Relations September 18, 2019 | [email protected] | (727) 733-9302 For Immediate Release September 18, 2019 SEVEN FORMER DUNEDIN BLUE JAYS SELECTED TO ARIZONA FALL LEAGUE DUNEDIN, FL- After an accolade-filled regular season in Dunedin, a total of six 2019 Dunedin Blue Jays and one 2018 Dunedin Blue Jay have received the opportunity to play in the Arizona Fall League from September 18 - October 26. RHP Maverik Buffo, RHP Mike Ellenbest, INF Cullen Large, RHP Jackson Rees, RHP Gra- ham Spraker, and INF Logan Warmoth were named to the team. Large and Warmoth both began the season in Dunedin with the Blue Jays but were called up to Double-A New Hampshire in the middle of the year. Also, 2018 Dunedin Blue Jay, INF Kevin Smith will be participating in the Arizona Fall League. All four pitchers spent the majority of their 2019 seasons in Dunedin contributing to an 80-55 record in the Florida State League. Cesar Martin will join his players as the manager for the Scottsdale Scorpions of the Arizona Fall League after winning Manager of the Year in the Florida State League with the Dunedin Blue Jays. Since the Arizona Fall League start- ed, it has produced 2,900 major league players and 42 managers. Spraker returns to his home state of Arizona after making the Mid-season All-Star team for the North Division of the Florida State League. He finished the season with a 2.84 ERA in 114.0 innings with a 1.16 WHIP. Cullen Large also made the FSL All-Star team and received the call-up to Double-A New Hampshire on August 6th after posting a slash line of .269/.360/.408. Logan Warmoth finished his time in Dunedin on a 10-game hitting streak driving in five runs. The former 1st round pick went on to hit .200 in 65 Double-A games. Mike Ellenbest ended his 2019 season strong with a 1.99 ERA in his last 10 games, and a 0.95 WHIP in his brief call-up to New Hamp- shire for three games. Maverik Buffo struggled through injury for a majority of the season, so he will be looking to get his innings up and grab some momentum heading into 2020. Jackson Rees rounds out the 2019 Dunedin Blue Jays participating in the league finishing 2019 with a 0.99 ERA in 36.1 innings. All seven of the prospects will be participating in the Fall League for the first time in their careers, and they follow Bo Bichette, Cavan Big- gio, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. who appeared in the league in 2018. The Scottsdale Scorpions are located in Scottsdale, Arizona and are currently the Fall League affiliate of the Atlanta Braves, New York Mets, Philadelphia Phillies, San Francisco Giants, and Toronto Blue Jays. The six-team league is made up of all 30 Major League organizations sending top Minor League prospects and standouts from 2019 to compete in the month-long league. The Scorpions open play on September 18 against the Mesa Solar Sox at Sloan Park in Mesa, Arizona. @DunedinBlueJays www.DunedinBlueJays.com @DunedinBlueJays.

In 1994, the Padres and Mariners both signed 20-year leases with the City of Peoria, assuring the future stability of the entire Cactus League. In 2012, the teams renewed these leases through Spring Training 2034. The new agreement included construction of state of the art, energy efficient clubhouses for each team as well as numerous renovations to the main stadium. Peoria Sports Complex is the site for Major League Spring Training, as well as each team’s player development systems. In the off-season, the complex is the site for player rehabilitation, Extended Spring Training, Arizona Summer League and Arizona Instructional League baseball. The complex is also home to an Arizona Fall League team. International teams from Japan, Korea, China, Canada, France, Italy, Australia and the Netherlands have also used the facility for training. In addition to Major and Minor League Baseball, Peoria Sports Complex is utilized year-round by many local and national youth and adult baseball tournaments and championships. In 2014, the complex began hosting the USL Professional men’s soccer team Arizona United SC. The complex is also host to a variety of events such as concerts, car and RV shows, art shows, 5K & 10K races, corporate events, private parties and charity fundraisers.
