Jason Jacome pitched 68 2/3 innings for the Toros last season and will make the transition to become the Toros first Player-Coach as both a Pitcher and the team’s Pitching Coach for 2010.  Although it will be Jacome’s first professional coaching experience, the role seems natural after his veteran leadership served as a pivotal influence for a young pitching staff in 2009.  The lefthander himself posted a 5-3 record in 13 games (11 starts) with a 4.72 ERA and a 39/18 strikeout to walk ratio.  Jacome was originally drafted by the New York Mets in the 12th Round of the 1991 amateur draft out of Pima Community College.  The Rincon High School graduate steadily rose through the Mets ranks to make his Major League debut in 1994, posting a 2.67 ERA and striking out 30 in 54 innings in his first big league season.  Jacome went on to rack more than 100 games in the Majors for the Mets, Kansas City Royals and Cleveland Indians.  He gathered international experience while playing for the Yakult Swallows of Japan in 1999 and 2000, as well as representing the United States in international play during the 2005 Baseball World Cup.  Jacome was a Diamondbacks farmhand in 2001, throwing 120 innings for the Tucson Sidewinders.
