Mariners' Jurrangelo Cijntje: Moving up to Double-A
The Mariners promoted Cijntje from High-A Everett to Double-A Arkansas on Sunday, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.
A 22-year-old switch-pitcher, Cijntje has posted a 4.58 ERA and 1.20 WHIP with 83 strikeouts over 74.2 innings in 19 appearances with Everett this season. Though he's a natural southpaw, Cijntje is considered more advanced as a right-handed pitcher, which has been reflected in his splits at Everett. Over 28.1 innings against left-handed hitters, Cijntje allowed a .262 batting average and posted a 28:25 K:BB, whereas righties batted just .161 in 45.2 innings while he amassed a 55:10 K:BB.
