The Toronto Blue Jays have faced significant challenges in developing homegrown starting pitchers under General Manager Ross Atkins. Only Marcus Stroman and Alek Manoah started playoff games in the last decade, showcasing the reliance on external acquisitions. Future prospects like Trey Yesavage and others have created a buzz, indicating the potential for improvement in the upcoming years. However, the recent trade deadline saw some top pitching prospects leave the organization. Despite this, the Blue Jays retain several promising arms who could impact the rotation in the near future.
The Blue Jays have struggled to develop starting pitchers, with only two homegrown players starting playoff games in ten years: Marcus Stroman and Alek Manoah.
Despite trade and free-agent success, the Blue Jays' pitching pipeline is showing promise for 2025 with several young players putting up impressive numbers.
