The Blue Jays’ farm system is currently in a rough spot after relying heavily on it to support the roster that nearly clinched a World Series title. Additionally, the lack of success from their 2021-22 drafts has created a noticeable gap in the higher levels.

I don’t want to hype Yesavage too much based on just a few fantastic starts in September and October, but I also can’t overlook them. At the very least, he seems prepared to join a major league rotation thanks to an enhanced slider and a great deal of confidence in his abilities. Yesavage was Toronto’s first-round pick in 2024 out of East Carolina, where he excelled with a strong splitter and mid-90s fastball that carries well, delivering both pitches from a high arm slot that enhances the fastball’s life and makes it more challenging for hitters to see it coming. The Blue Jays have embraced this by raising his arm slot further, giving him the highest release point among current MLB starters while also helping him improve his slider by increasing its speed by over two mph compared to his college days. This adjustment allowed him to have another option during one playoff start against Seattle when his splitter wasn’t working well, rather than just relying on fastballs.
Yesavage’s command will be what sets him apart; right now, he’s achieving more success with his stuff than with precision or control, and that high arm slot generally (but not always) complicates repeating his delivery. If he stays healthy, he should at least be a solid No. 3 or above-average starter, with additional potential hinging on improved command.

Parker was selected as the No. 8 pick in the 2025 draft and is an exceptional contact hitter who barely swung and missed during showcases in 2024 against some top prep arms nationwide. He handles the strike zone adeptly, possesses remarkable hand-eye coordination and utilizes a compact swing path that guarantees high contact rates. Although he sometimes drifts toward his front side during contact-losing some power-this is something he can work on correcting. Currently playing shortstop with impressive fielding skills for an infielder, he’s likely not going to have plus range and may eventually shift to third base.
I’d be surprised if he doesn’t hit for high averages right away once he begins professional play. If you’re searching for someone resembling Kevin Mc Gonigle from the class of 2025 draft picks, Parker would be your guy.

Height: 6-1 | Weight: 190 | Bats: R | Throws: R | Age: 20
Nimmala started off strong at the beginning of 2025 hitting.289/.372/.528 by June first while maintaining an only18 percent strikeout rate; however, this promising performance didn’t last long leading into mixed results throughout his second full year as a pro player due mainly because of nagging injuries combined with fatigue along with pitchers adjusting their strategies without him counteracting effectively which resulted into dwindling production levels after June where he ended up at.184/.277/.290 along with increased strikeouts reaching about24 percent yet still being significantly lower than previous year numbers showed. In fact, during draft day, Nimmala was merely seventeen years old showing true potential since spending all twelve months within High A competition making him stand out as fourth youngest regular competing at that level -with two younger players ahead listed amongst top hundred prospects (Leo De Vries & Franklin Arias).
He still possesses excellent power potential improving upon contact rates whilst moving up another tier aiming towards sticking around shortstop position. His time spent throughout twenty-six may find himself competing primarily within Double-A league expectations establishing further growth following recovery focused offseason. If everything aligns correctly enabling those abilities hitting consistently enough brings about possible projection reaching over25 homers alongside proficient defense held down shortstop position.
Height: 6-3 | Weight: 210 | Bats: L | Throws: L | Age: 19
The Jays’ third-round selection back in twenty-four coming out of Florida high school. King made quite an impression debuting last season via Florida Complex League showing phenomenal talent across seven outings striking down forty-one batters posting stunning stats whilst walking only seven across twenty-four innings pitched. Unfortunately struggles arose post-promotion heading Low A where control became problematic resulting into higher walks standing near eighteen percent per plate appearance albeit covering thirty-seven two-thirds frames thus keeping him off any notable lists till now. The raw skill set remains intact showcasing peak velocity ranging ninety-two through ninety-four featuring both four-seam & two-seam variants complimented nicely through hard spinning curveball catching remarkable sixty-one point five whiff rate along balanced sliders additionally possessing foundation built around changeup -although weakest pitch presently offered!
Inconsistencies arise through delivery causing issues including early releases positioned too elevated leading onto stiff landings while occasionally bouncing upwards momentarily though returns inevitably afterwards. I believe there lies reasonable hope given age athleticism shows scope available aimed towards fixing such minor faults especially considered progress made could potentially land name atop future rankings come next twelve months!
5. Ricky Tiedemann, LHP
Height: 6-4 | Weight: 220 | Bats: L | Throws: L| Age :23
Tiedemann hasn ’ t played since July twenty-four. Having already missed multiple months recovering from prior injuries before undergoing Tommy John surgery recently scheduled rehabilitation expected coincide spring training preparations. Toronto included Tiedemann onto their forty-man roster this winter assuming precautionary approach prioritizing minimal workload considering limited appearances completed post-injury. During inaugural campaign back during ’22 managed seventy-eight innings pitched proving effectiveness rarely matched afterward.
When fit displays elite left-handed repertoire generating velocities between ninety-five-ninety-seven touching even up towards ninety-nine equipped additionally possessing complementary pitches displaying strong sliders coupled slick changing options adding depth further potency attached. This young man faced changes evolving techniques starting late twenty-three possibly attributed earlier setbacks seen occurring shoulder remaining open far longer exerted unwarranted stress pointing detrimental effects observed henceforth. My feeling maintains likelihood transitioning relief role plausible ultimately recognizing wise strategy cultivating comfortable pace outputting foundational elements required surrounding starters allowing ample recuperation periods during each outing effectively managing workloads overall.
6. Gage Stanifer, RHP
Height :6 -3|Weight :208|Bats: R|Throws: R|Age :22
Stanifer added over two miles per hour onto pitching arsenal last year resulting newfound effectiveness translated significantly across entire array offering sharper commands seen notably improving four-seam fastballs carrying better yields producing substantial swings-and-misses derived lower baseline percentages. As sliders generated misses consequently amidst sharp downward breaks although spin remained average standard. His unique mechanics highlighted starkly shorter arm motions rarely witnessed previously demonstrated fair consistency regarding repetitions yielding positive outcomes translating expectations accordingly pushing forward development standards marked transitions. All together culminated transformations weren ’t limited solely pertinent quality alone suggesting improvement yielded witnessing drop walk rates hovering near eighteen-point-one percentage went down sharply settling below twelve-point-eight figures exhibited throughout various competition levels predominantly residing within High-A division where majority participation happened throughout duration indicated concerning lesser prospects present.
7. Yohendrick Pinango , OF
Height :5 -11|Weight :170|Bats: L|Throws: L|Age :24
Acquired originally from Cubs’ lineup preceding trade deadline arriving mid-twenty-four season yielded fruitful results having seen marked reduction towards swinging tendencies showcased enhancing overall discipline paired alongside explosive showings displayed recently particularly emerging Triple-A contest posting peak max exit velocities hitting astonishing figure nearing115mph! Unfortunately luck turned sour experiencing inconsistent batted balls registering low averages despite observable contributions thus concluding efforts trailing behind counterparts regarding consistent production metrics established beforehand indicating need continuing improvement grasping opportunities given full awareness shifting attention warranted understanding maximizing returns attainable maximizing chances sought resultant boosts visible outcomes moving forward facilitating sustainable progression necessary maintain stability prove beneficial viability options directed firmly deriving momentum enhancements onward.
