"Yesavage, as every Blue Jays fan knows, went on a tear in his 2025 campaign, wasting little time in the process. Over the 2025 minor-league season, spanning four levels (Single-A through Triple-A), he made 25 appearances (22 starts), logged 98 innings, struck out 160 batters (41.1% strikeout rate), allowed only 54 hits, and maintained a 3.12 ERA with a 0.97 WHIP. His expeditious climb to the majors was capped when he was brought up to the majors on September 15."
"What truly cemented the 22-year-old at the top of the Blue Jays' prospect rankings in 2025, was the way he handled himself on the biggest stage. On the World Series mound, he carried himself like a grizzled veteran with years of experience under his belt. Instead, he's just two years removed from pitching to a 2.03 ERA at East Carolina University."
Trey Yesavage and RJ Schreck were named the Toronto Blue Jays' Prospects of the Year. Yesavage rose rapidly through four minor-league levels in 2025, making 25 appearances (22 starts), logging 98 innings, striking out 160 batters (41.1% strikeout rate), allowing 54 hits, and posting a 3.12 ERA with a 0.97 WHIP. Yesavage was promoted to the majors on September 15. In his first postseason appearance he set a Blue Jays franchise mark for strikeouts by a Toronto starting pitcher in the postseason with 11. Yesavage relies on a diving splitter and an unusually high three-quarters arm angle that creates a pronounced downhill delivery.
