Blue Jays Promote Top Prospect Trey Yesavage to Triple-A

The Toronto Blue Jays are promoting their top pitching prospect, Trey Yesavage, to Triple-A Buffalo after an impressive first professional season. Yesavage, who was the 20th overall pick in the 2024 MLB Draft, has demonstrated exceptional strikeout ability with 134 strikeouts in 80.2 innings and a strong 15 K/9 rate across four minor league levels. Although his ERA in Double-A is 4.50, his recent performances have shown marked improvement, including a stretch with a 2.06 ERA and no walks in 13 innings. The Blue Jays are considering a potential major league debut for Yesavage in September, possibly as a reliever or starter, depending on the team's needs. At 22 years old, Yesavage has quickly risen through the ranks and is regarded as one of baseball's top prospects, ranked No. 49 overall and No. 6 among right-handed pitchers. His combination of high strikeout rates and improving consistency makes him a key player to watch for Toronto's 2025 season and beyond.
