We are one day away from the 10th annual Canadian Futures Showcase, hosted by the Toronto Blue Jays Baseball Academy. The showcase encompasses over 150 of Canada’s top amateur talent. 

The showcase consists of uncommitted collegiate-eligible players and committed draft-eligible players. The Blue Jays scouting staff and the Academy have identified younger players participating. 
Similar to last year’s event, the teams and rosters are divided into navy, black, grey, red, royal, and new blue. Each team will play a set number of games within the week beginning on Wednesday. 
The showcase kicks off tomorrow, with a scheduled scout day to evaluate each positioned player&#8217;s tools. Players will run a 60-yard dash while taking several measurements, such as positional velocity, catchers&#8217; pop times, and batting practice, measuring exit velocities, launch angles, and distance. 
The Blue Jays baseball operations department does a fantastic job measuring and documenting player metrics using its own technology. Pitchers are evaluated in-game. 
The first 75 player selections were released one month ago, and some very interesting names were included. The final selections, including the coaching staff, were announced in mid-August. 
The tournament will include various names of interest within the country. It will encompass a handful of new up-and-coming players as well as returnees. Names such as Robert Omidi, Giancarlo Sortino, and Esteban Dessureault will be returning faces. 
Names such as Keegan Russell, Ryan Stalony, Nathan Kirouac, and Jason Roach are a few of the players worth watching in this event. 
Various schools will be in attendance in a recruiting and evaluating capacity. All 30 Major League teams will have scouting representation, attempting to evaluate possible draft targets for the near and long future. 
The Canadian Futures Showcase is a large producer and advertiser of talent in the nation. A large number of collegiate scholarships were awarded thanks to the assistance and existence of this event. 
The Blue Jays attract many reputable Division I schools and high-caliber collegiate programs. The MLB draft speaks for itself. Various recent and past Canada Futures alumni have heard their names called in the draft selections.
Last year alone, the draft included Josiah Romeo, who participated in the showcase in 2023. Brendan Lawson and Nathan Flewelling, both alumni of the event, were also named. 
The majority of Canadians in the minor leagues or majors have been involved with the showcase. This year’s event also features some much-anticipated names.
Blue Jays Nation will have all the scouting coverage on the prospects participating in this event.
