"Getting to the big leagues just over a year after being drafted doesn't happen very often. It's even rarer for a player to make their MLB debut in September and find their way on to a World Series roster just weeks later. But that's what Trey Yesavage did in 2025 and the story book start to his career came up just inches short of the ultimate dream ending."
"Speaking to reporters on Wednesday (Jan. 28) Yeavage says he just needed some time to get away after the loss in that game. Yesavage said, "I spent a lot of time out in the woods hunting and just trying to be with myself and kind of disappear a little bit. ... The ending was heartbreaking for everybody in that clubhouse because everyone worked so hard for that moment. But we'll be better for it next season""
Trey Yesavage reached the major leagues just over a year after being drafted and made his MLB debut in September 2025, joining a World Series roster weeks later. The Toronto Blue Jays lost Game 7 to the LA Dodgers, a heartbreaking ending for the clubhouse. Yesavage spent time hunting in the woods to be alone and reset after the loss. At 22 years old with under a month of regular-season service time plus playoff experience, Yesavage remains a highly rated prospect, is eligible for American League Rookie of the Year, and plans to improve as Toronto pursues another division title.
