Blue Jays' Adrian Pinto: Makes season debut at Double-A
Rotowire
Pinto (personal) has gone 1-for-7 with a home run and two walks in two games for Double-A New Hampshire since being assigned to the affiliate Tuesday.
After being a late arrival to spring training due to visa issues, Pinto opened the season on High-A Vancouver's restricted list. He was cleared to begin a rehab assignment in the Florida State League on April 14, and after going 6-for-27 with a home run and 4:4 BB:K in seven games with Single-A Dunedin, Pinto was activated and bumped up to Double-A. The 23-year-old infielder has been productive at the dish throughout his minor-league career, but availability has been an issue. He hasn't played more than 50 games in any of the last four seasons.

Pinto (rib) has gone 8-for-15 with a home run, a triple, three doubles, nine RBI and five runs in three games since being reinstated from High-A Vancouver's 60-day injured list Wednesday.
Pinto was finally cleared to make his High-A Vancouver debut this past week after a rib issue cropped up in spring training and forced him to spend extended time on the shelf. Before he was activated, Pinto appeared in nine contests between the rookie-level Florida Complex League and Single-A Dunedin, slashing .394/.429/.576 with four extra-base knocks and two walks between those two stops.
