MLB Pipeline released its new top-100 MLB prospects list.<\/p>\n

The Toronto Blue Jays<\/a> are only somewhat represented, with three players out of the 100.<\/p>\n

Trey Yesavage makes the list, as you’d expect.<\/p>\n

So too do JoJo Parker and Arjun Nimmala, a pair of minor league shortstops.<\/p>\n

Yesavage checks in at No. 12 on the list after his stellar MLB debut at the end of 2025 and in the playoffs.<\/p>\n

“Yesavage\u2019s control improved during his time at each of his five stops in \u201925 as he learned to trust the quality of his stuff,” MLB.com writes<\/a>. “He heads into his second full season as a key piece of Toronto\u2019s rotation, but whether he can continue to dominate with three pitches alone will determine his role as a No. 2 starter or more of a midrotation type.”<\/p>\n

Parker slots in as the 45th-best prospect in baseball in these rankings.<\/p>\n

“A move to third base could come down the line, considering his above-average arm strength would be a fit,” MLB.com writes. “But the Jays intend to give him plenty of opportunities at the more premium position, knowing his bat will likely be his greatest strength anyways.”<\/p>\n

Nimmala is at No. 77.<\/p>\n

“Entering 2026, Nimmala has still faced only one pitcher in his career who was younger than he was at the time, and as he gets to more age-appropriate levels, he could be a more consistent and prolific performer,” MLB.com writes.<\/p>\n

Toronto has most of its organizational talent already at the major league level, so it’ll be important to find ways to win in the near term.<\/p>\n
