The Toronto Blue Jays do not have a well-regarded farm system, in fact they are ranked 24th out of 30 teams by Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Sam Dykstra of MILB.com

Leading Blue Jays fans to wonder what the real direction of this franchise is.

Toronto was aggressive in bulking up the system at last season's trade deadline and earned praise for picking up prospects Jake Bloss and Will Wagner from the Houston Astros, Jonatan Clase from the Seattle Mariners and Charles McAdoo from the Pittsburg Pirates.

That has buoyed the system for now, however strong campaigns from first-rounders Trey Yesavage and Arjun Nimmala can provide further boosts in 2025.

Currently ranked the No. 5 prospect in the organization by MLB.com, as of now is 19-year old Arjun Nimmala

Jim Callis clearly thinks the other top four (Trey Yesavage, Orelvis Martinez, Jake Bloss and Ricky Tiedemann) will make the major leagues this year or will be passed by Nimmala

After a slow start last season Nimmala really came into his own into the second half of the season where he was named Florida State Player League player of the Month in August.

Nimmala batted .296 with an .871 OPS and five home runs across his 22 games of action in August. The 18-year-old's 29 hits and 53 total bases led the circuit.

After Nimmala's first full season in the organization, he has improved his plate discipline, and is already slightly ahead of what the Blue Jays anticipated when they drafted him.

Unlocking his power is the priority, as it is the defining factor in his success.

Right now, Nimmala stands out as the most exciting position-player in the Blue Jays farm system.

There are only three short stops at 18-years old with 14+ home runs in a season at single-A since 2010:

They are Fernando Tatis Jr, Xander Bogaerts and Arjun Nimmala. Special Talent.

By this time next year Arjun Nimmala should be the number one prospect in the Blue Jays farm system.
