The Blue Jays are in contention for their first American League East title since 2015, with Fangraphs now estimating a 91.9% chance of making the playoffs. With a strong 33-15 record since May 27, they may become aggressive buyers at the trade deadline. Top prospect Arjun Nimmala, a shortstop with impressive performance at High-A Vancouver, could be a key asset for a trade to acquire a win-now player, despite his expected MLB debut not being until 2028.
The Blue Jays find themselves in a position that almost nobody anticipated at the start of the season: in contention for their first American League East division title since 2015.
Thanks to their 33-15 record since May 27, the Blue Jays are now big buyers and may have some interesting pieces teams may want to acquire.
The Blue Jays' top prospect, according to MLB.com, is expected to reach the big leagues in 2028, a ways to go for the young talent.
The ceiling is high for Nimmala, and despite sitting at the 46th-ranked prospect by MLB, he should garner the interest of opposing teams for a win-now Toronto ball club.
