Adam Macko is excelling in Triple-A and making a strong case for a major league call-up with impressive performances.
For the first time in WBC history, Canada advanced to the knockout stage after winning Pool A with a 3-1 record. The narrow loss to the US showed that they are now more competitive on the international stage than ever before, and stand to keep improving ahead of the 2028 Olympics and 2029 installment of the WBC.
Adam Macko has been mentioned among the top Blue Jays prospects since he came over from Seattle in the 2022 offseason trade that sent Teoscar Hernandez to the Mariners. The 24-year-old has dealt with some minor injuries that have led to him missing time in each of the past three seasons. Last season at triple-A Buffalo, the left-hander compiled a 5.06 ERA and 1.51 WHIP across 18 appearances (10 starts).
