Getting to know Cutter Coffey…

Previous ranking: 30th (2025 pre-season)

Standing at 6’1”, 190 lbs, Coffey was a two-way prospect heading into the 2022 draft, with the Boston Red Sox selecting him 41st overall. He dropped pitching to focus on hitting once turning professional, and slashed .125/.300/.156 with no home runs to end the 2022 season.

In 2023, Coffey started the year in Single-A, where he slashed .226/.341/.348 with six home runs in 349 plate appearances. The infielder didn’t find the same success in High-A that season, batting just .136 with two doubles in 79 plate appearances.

Repeating the High-A level to begin the 2024 season, Coffey slashed .238/.321/.463 with 14 home runs in 271 plate appearances, giving him a 120 wRC+ with the Red Sox’s High-A team. Before the trade deadline, the Red Sox shipped him, Eddinson Paulino, and Gilberto Batista to the Blue Jays for Danny Jansen.

Finishing the season with the High-A Canadians, Coffey slashed .185/.309/.272 with a home run in 97 plate appearances for a 76 wRC+. However, he’s been great in 2025 with the Canadians, slashing .281/.367/.430 with nine home runs in 401 plate appearances, with an 11.2 BB% and 23.2 K% for a 121 wRC+.

The biggest concern regarding Coffey is his hit tool, as MLB Pipeline gives him a 40-grade while ranking him as the 28th-best Blue Jays’ prospect. Coffey’s improved batting average is promising, but he also has quick bat speed that gives him extra-base power. His strongest tool is his arm, meaning that he’ll likely end up staying at third base as he progresses up the minor league ladder. On top of that, Coffey has played some second base this season as well. Coffey’s run and field tools are ranked as average.

The 21-year-old is currently on the 7-day Injured List and hasn’t played since August 7th.
