"In 2024, the Blue Jays weren't a good team. They never recovered from a rough start, eventually sold at the trade deadline, and finished the season with a 74-88 record. There were certainly bright spots, as Addison Barger received playing time and Bowden Francis became one of the best pitchers on the planet over the final two months. Moreover, the Jays also picked up some relievers for future seasons."
"Nance had big league experience prior to joining the Jays, but he was unremarkable in his 20 innings with the team in 2024. Overall, he finished with a 4.09 ERA and 3.98 FIP in 22 innings pitched, with a 20.4 K% and 9.7 BB%. Nance didn't make the Opening Day roster, as the jays outrighted the 34-year-old to the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons."
"The right-handed pitcher was okay with the Jays' Triple-A team and on July 11th, the Jays re-added him to the 40-man roster. Nance wasn't demoted again, as he pitched in 30 games over the final two and a half months, posting a 1.99 ERA and 1.87 FIP in 31.2 innings pitched, with a 25.4 K% and 5.6 BB%. Among pitchers with 30 or more innings out of the bullpen, Nance's 1.99 ERA ranked 14th in a sample size of 244 pitchers."
Tommy Nance entered 2024 with prior big-league experience but produced modest results early, recording a 4.09 ERA and 3.98 FIP in 22 innings with a 20.4% K and 9.7% BB. The Blue Jays outrighted the 34-year-old to Triple-A Buffalo before re-adding him to the 40-man on July 11. After returning, Nance excelled in 30 games over two and a half months, posting a 1.99 ERA and 1.87 FIP in 31.2 innings with a 25.4% K and 5.6% BB. His late-season ERA ranked 14th among relievers with at least 30 innings in a 244-player sample, though many of his innings were in lower-leverage situations.
