The <a href="https://bluejaysnation.com/">Toronto Blue Jays</a> organization is starting to get good.

On Tuesday afternoon, two different prospect publications released their updated Top 100 lists before the 2025 Major League Baseball trade deadline. Both <a href="https://www.fangraphs.com/prospects/the-board?org=tor">Fangraphs</a> and <a href="https://www.justbaseball.com/prospects/top-100-mlb-prospects/">Just Baseball’s</a> lists include five Blue Jays’ prospects in their top 100, and there are seven different prospects between the two sites.

As expected, Arjun Nimmala is the Blue Jays’ top prospect. Fangraphs ranks him as the 42nd-best prospect in baseball, and Just Baseball ranks him as the 61st-best prospect in baseball. This season with the High-A Vancouver Canadians, Nimmala is slashing .227/.322/.395 with 11 home runs, but has been batting under the Mendoza line since the beginning of July. It&#8217;s worth noting <a href="https://bluejaysnation.com/news/toronto-blue-jays-arjun-nimmala-trey-yesavage-jojo-parker-rank-baseball-americas-latest-top-100-list">Baseball America</a> had him in their top 100 as well.
Trey Yesavage is another prospect who ranks on both lists, as Fangraphs ranks the right-handed pitcher as the 61st-best prospect in baseball, and Just Baseball has him 71st. Between Single-A, High-A, and Double-A, Yesavage has a 3.01 ERA and 2.75 FIP in 71.2 innings pitched, with a 41.1 K% and 10.6 BB%. His 116 strikeouts rank fifth in the minor leagues.
The only other player who ranks on both lists is 2024 second-round pick Khal Stephen. Fangraphs ranks him as their 80th-best prospect, and Just Baseball has him as their 89th-best prospect. Like Yesavage, Stephen has pitched in Single-A, High-A, and Double-A, and has a 2.06 ERA and 2.67 FIP in 91.2 innings pitched, with a 27.9 K% and 5.1 BB%. After just one start with the New Hampshire Fisher Cats, Stephen was placed on the Injured List.
Surprisingly,<a href="https://bluejaysnation.com/news/toronto-blue-jays-select-jojo-parker-eighth-overall"> JoJo Parker</a> only ranks on Just Baseball’s top 100 list, coming in as the 65th-best prospect in baseball. The Blue Jays’ first-round pick in 2025 hasn’t made his professional debut yet, but he has one of the most well-rounded bats in the 2025 draft. If he plays this year, the shortstop will start in High-A with the Vancouver Canadians.
Just Baseball’s other Blue Jay that ranks in the top 100 is Kendry Rojas, coming in as the 91st-best prospect in baseball. The Cuban left-handed pitcher continues to improve year by year, and this season he has a 2.45 ERA and 1.78 FIP in 36.2 innings pitched across the Florida Complex League, Single-A, and Double-A. In four starts with the Fisher Cats, the 22-year-old had a 3.86 ERA and 1.76 FIP in 18.2 innings pitched. He was recently promoted to the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons.
On Fangraphs, left-handed pitcher Ricky Tiedemann ranks as their 94th-best prospect. Recovering from Tommy John surgery, the 22-year-old hasn’t pitched since last summer, but could get into games by the end of the season <a href="https://x.com/DMFox705/status/1948135183967785341">as he’s been throwing bullpen sessions lately</a>. At his best, Tiedemann is reaching the upper-90s with a nasty slider and changeup.
The last prospect that ranks on either list is Jake Bloss, who ranks as Fangraphs&#8217; 96th-best prospect. Bloss made six starts in 2025 with the Buffalo Bisons, posting a 6.46 ERA and 4.76 FIP in 23.2 innings. Unfortunately, Bloss underwent Tommy John surgery in May and won’t be available until some point next season.
Although those are the seven prospects who found their way onto either top 100 list, there are a few more prospects in the Jays’ organization who deserve a mention. Left-handed pitcher <a href="https://bluejaysnation.com/news/toronto-blue-jays-johnny-king-latest-success-story-farm-system">Johnny King</a> was selected in the third round of the 2024 draft and has a 1.58 ERA and 2.09 FIP in 40 innings pitched between the FCL and Single-A. King also has an incredible 42.8 K%.
Gage Stanifer is the Blue Jays’ biggest breakout prospect of 2025, and between Single-A and High-A, he has a 2.96 ERA and 2.10 FIP in 70 innings pitched, with a 38.1 K% and 13.1 BB%. His ERA jumped from 0.69 in Single-A to 4.30 in High-A, but his stuff is nasty, hence why I always included him in “potential breakout prospects” at the start of a season. Here’s the <a href="https://bluejaysnation.com/news/four-blue-jays-pitching-prospects-who-could-break-out-in-2023">2023 list</a>, as well as the <a href="https://bluejaysnation.com/news/five-potential-breakout-candidates-in-the-blue-jays-farm-system-in-2025?preview=true">2025 list</a>.
The last prospect who deserves at least some consideration is Yohendrick Piñango, who ranked as Fangraphs’ 37th-best prospect. This season between Double-A and Triple-A, he’s slashing .265/.368/.471 with 14 home runs in 360 plate appearances, but has slowed down quite a bit (97 wRC+) in Triple-A. Still, there are a whole lot of positives, as you can see from <a href="https://prospectsavant.com/player/682818">Prospect Savant</a>.
All of this is to say that the Blue Jays’ farm system is in a good spot.
