Blue Jays: #6 prospect Kloffenstein makes Single-A debut

After the Blue Jays selected high school right-hander Adam Kloffenstein in the third-round last year and signed him to a deal worth roughly $1.8-million more than the recommended slot-value, he pitched just two innings in rookie ball.

The # 3 pitching prospect in the organization surpassed that total Friday night when he was handed the start in the Vancouver Canadians season opener, going three innings with the only two earned runs coming on a first inning home run.

Despite allowing four runs in total, Kloffenstein was sharp and had his full arsenal of pitches on display, striking out five and walking just one.
