5 breakout Blue Jays prospects to keep an eye on to end the 2025 season

After hitting 17 home runs in his final season of college, Casey has shown a nice blend of raw power and speed on the bases. Keep an eye on him to end the season.

Tucker Toman

Selected 77th overall in the 2022 draft, Tucker Toman joined the Blue Jays on an over-slot deal and tons of hype. Unfortunately, his first two full seasons with the Dunedin Blue Jays weren’t great, and the 2025 season didn’t start great either.

However, over the last two and a half months of his Single-A tenure, Toman slashed .286/.372/.422 with five home runs in 215 plate appearances, with a 10.7 BB% and 21.9 K% for a 127 wRC+. This is what was expected of Toman when he joined the organization, and he even ranked as our 44th-best prospect in the mid-season update.

Since joining the High-A Vancouver Canadians, the switch-hitting third baseman is slashing .444/.571/.556 with no home runs in 14 plate appearances, but he does have a double and four RBIs.

The rest of the season for the 21-year-old is going to be interesting. If he can continue the momentum he has for the rest of the season and beyond, he could be a 22-year-old in Double-A next season, which is an encouraging sign.

Eddie Micheletti Jr.

One newcomer to our Top 50 is Eddie Micheletti Jr. Drafted in the eighth round of the 2024 draft, the outfielder hit the ground running with the D-Jays after the draft, slashing .292/.422/.458 with two home runs in 90 plate appearances.

Joining the Vancouver Canadians for the 2025 season, the 23-year-old outfielder is slashing .231/.370/.435 with 14 home runs in 411 plate appearances, with a higher BB% (16.1%) than K% (15.3%), giving him a 123 wRC+.

For a while, Micheletti Jr.’s 14 home runs were tied for the organization lead, but Yohendrick Piñango is the lone holder with 15 home runs. Still, the outfielder’s 14 home runs are tied with Will Robertson, RJ Schreck, Charles McAdoo, and Sean Keys for the second-most in the organization. 

Piñango, Schreck, McAdoo, and Key all rank on the Jays’ top prospect lists, and so should Micheletti Jr., thanks to a strong eye at the plate and pop in his bat.

Silvano Hechavarria

Cuban right-handed pitcher Silvano Hechavarria joined the Blue Jays in the summer of 2024. He had a strong start to his affiliate career as an older player in the Dominican Summer League, but his career has reached a new level in 2025.

Starting with the Florida Complex League Blue Jays, the 22-year-old posted a 2.12 ERA and 4.80 FIP in 17 innings pitched, making three starts in the four games he pitched in. He wasn’t overpowering by any means, striking out just 14.7% of batters while walking 5.9% of batters.

He dominated Single-A, as the righty authored a 1.90 ERA and 3.15 FIP in 47.1 innings pitched, with a 28.5 K% and a 5.9 BB%. Recently, Hechavarria was promoted to High-A, where he pitched five innings and gave up two earned runs in his first start.

Hechavarria has a five-pitch mix, featuring a four-seamer, two-seamer, changeup, cutter, and slider. The fastball averages a tick under 94 mph but reaches 97 mph. Moreover, both the changeup and cutter had a whiff% above 30% in Single-A. Like Micheletti Jr. (and the next prospect), Hechavarria will be a newcomer on our Top 50 prospect list.

Grant Rogers

One starter in the Blue Jays system who has become must-watch is Grant Rogers, a 6’7”, 230 lbs right-handed pitcher selected in the 11th round of the 2023 draft. His 2024 season was good, posting a 3.87 ERA and 3.70 FIP in 111.2 innings pitched, but he’s reached new heights in 2025.

Starting the season with the High-A Vancouver Canadians, Rogers started eight games and had a 1.82 ERA and 3.42 FIP in 39.2 innings pitched. He only struck out 22.8% of batters, while walking 10.5% of batters in this time.

Most of Rogers’ season has been spent with the Double-A New Hampshire Fisher Cats, where he has a 3.15 ERA and 3.80 FIP in 85.2 innings pitched. The 24-year-old’s K% has dropped to 15.2%, but his BB% of 3.6% shows great command. Altogether, Rogers has a 2.73 ERA and 3.68 FIP in 125.1 innings pitched this season, the most for any pitcher in the Jays’ organization.

A big reason for his inning count is thanks to quality start after quality start. Since June 19, Rogers has failed to pitch six or more innings just once, on July 30, when he gave up four earned runs in five and two-thirds innings of work. In that span, Rogers has eight quality starts in 10 games. In 15 Double-A starts, Rogers has 12 quality starts this season.

Rogers doesn’t overpower batters, as he has a fastball that averages in the high-80s and low-90s. He features a cutter, splitter, sinker, slider, and changeup and has excellent command of his pitches. Rogers has “back-end-of-the-rotation-starter” written all over him.

Others not mentioned

There are a few other prospects in the Blue Jays system who are of mentioning, if only in passing. Nick Goodwin is slashing .253/.364/.413 with 11 home runs in 334 plate appearances this season, while striking out just 17.7% of the time. He’s spent the 2025 season with the High-A Vancouver Canadians and has mainly played second base.

Jackson Hornung is slashing .297/.374/.455 with seven home runs between High-A and Double-A this season. His K% is a bit high, but he’s shown to be a solid hitter and even ranks as our 49th-best prospect in the mid-season update.

Two other pitchers who deserve mention are Javen Coleman and Yondrei Rojas. Starting with Coleman, a left-handed reliever, his 37.5 K% is the fourth-highest in the organization for any pitcher with 20 or more innings pitched. He’s split his time between Single-A and High-A and averages 94 mph on his four-seam fastball.

Rojas has a 35.9 K% this season, along with a 2.10 ERA and 1.90 FIP in 25.2 innings pitched. Despite standing at 5’10”, 180 lbs, the 22-year-old sits in the mid-to-upper-90s with his four-seam fastball and throws a cutter, slider, and changeup to round out his pitch mix.
