"Yesavage made seven appearances (all starts) with Dunedin, showing he was ready to progress. The 20th overall pick went 3-0 with a 2.43 and an eye-popping 55 strikeouts over 33 1/3 innings (14.9 K/9). The right-hander's next stop was with the Vancouver Canadians, and he continued to show that he belonged at a higher level. Yesavage made just four starts on the West Coast, striking out 33 batters over just 17 1/3 innings with a minuscule 1.56 ERA."
"What Yesavage did there put him in the conversation to join the Blue Jays in September. Despite being more than six years younger than the average player in that league, the former East Carolina star was unflappable, recording 26 more strikeouts across 17 1/3 innings, posting a 3.63 ERA and putting himself in consideration for a promotion to the majors late in the season. He displayed an unorthodox, over-the-top delivery that baffled hitters and helped him amass an extraordinary K-rate."
Trey Yesavage, 22, advanced through Single-A, High-A, Double-A and Triple-A in 2024 after being selected 20th overall. He dominated Single-A Dunedin (3-0, 2.43, 55 strikeouts in 33 1/3 innings) and excelled in High-A Vancouver (33 K in 17 1/3 innings, 1.56 ERA). In Double-A New Hampshire he collected 46 strikeouts in 30 innings with a 4.50 ERA before performing strongly at Triple-A Buffalo (26 strikeouts in 17 1/3 innings, 3.63 ERA). His unconventional, over-the-top delivery produced extraordinary strikeout rates and earned a September major-league debut.
