"It was a rough Spring Training for Clase, as the switch-hitting outfielder slashed just .261/.308/.391 with a double and a triple in 26 plate appearances. Still, he'll likely see some time with the Blue Jays at some point in 2026, as he's gotten a look with them the last two seasons."
"Nimmala, a top three Blue Jays' prospect, didn't have a great Spring Training either. Over 30 plate appearances, he slashed .240/.367/.280 with no home runs. His lone extra-base hit was a double, as he struck out nine times over those 30 plate appearances."
"Of the four top prospects assigned to the Minor League camp, Coleman had the best showing. Over six and two-thirds innings pitched, the left-handed reliever didn't allow an earned run with a 3.67 FIP. The Fisher Cats is where he'll likely start the 2026 season."
The Toronto Blue Jays made roster cuts on Monday afternoon as the 2026 season approaches. Jonatan Clase was optioned after batting .261/.308/.391 in 26 plate appearances during Spring Training. Four top prospects—Sean Keys, Charles McAdoo, Arjun Nimmala, and Javen Coleman—were assigned to Minor League camp. Keys slashed .207/.324/.379 with one home run in 34 plate appearances. Nimmala, a top three prospect, batted .240/.367/.280 over 30 plate appearances with nine strikeouts. McAdoo posted a .200/.273/.367 line with one home run in 33 plate appearances. Coleman performed best among the group, posting a 3.67 FIP over six and two-thirds innings without allowing earned runs. Most prospects are expected to begin the season with Double-A New Hampshire Fisher Cats.
