Arjun Nimmala

TOR Shortstop

Blue Jays selected Strawberry Crest HS (Dover, FL) SS Arjun Nimmala with the 20th pick of the 2023 MLB Draft.

Nimmala is aiming to become the first player of Indian descent to reach the majors and represents a fascinating lottery ticket for Toronto. The 17-year-old shortstop is one of the youngest players in the entire draft and should grow into some big-time over-the-fence power down the road. He possesses lightning-quick bat speed, which gives him a chance to make an impact for fantasy managers down the road, if he can overcome some of the swing-and-miss issues in his profile. He’s a few hyperspace jumps away from the majors, but he’s one of the most intriguing prospects in this class, and has a chance to blossom into the Blue Jays’ shortstop of the future.
Danny Jansen

TOR Catcher #9

Danny Jansen hit a two-run homer to tie the game in the ninth before the Blue Jays beat the Tigers 4-3 in 10 innings Sunday.

Jansen’s homer off Alex Lange, his 11th of the season, came with two outs in the ninth. The Jays later pulled ahead in the 10th on a double from Nathan Lukes in his first major league at-bat since June 13, and Jason Romano closed things out in the bottom of the inning.
Chris Bassitt

TOR Starting Pitcher #40

Chris Bassitt surrendered three runs and nine hits in four-plus innings against the Tigers on Sunday.

It could have been worse, but Trevor Richards was able to strand two runners after entering with none out in the fifth. Bassitt was coming off a pair of quality starts, including a 12-strikeout effort versus the Giants. He’s been disappointing in how many homers he’s given up — he allowed his 18th today — but an 8-5 record and 4.19 ERA isn’t so bad.
Jordan Romano

TOR Relief Pitcher #68

Jordan Romano stranded the automatic runner to protect the Jays’ one-run lead in the 10th inning for a save Sunday.

Saves in which the reliever has to strand the automatic runner should count for two. Romano finishes the first half as the AL leader with 26 saves.
Hyun Jin Ryu

TOR Starting Pitcher #99

Hyun Jin Rhu (elbow) scattered three hits across four innings at Low-A Dunedin on Sunday.

Ryu tossed 37 pitches and struck out one in his four innings of work on Sunday. He threw 27 strikes, and his velocity topped out at 88.4 MPH. Ryu has been on the injured list all year as he recovers from Tommy John surgery. He still has a way to go, but he is expected to join the Blue Jays rotation in late July.
Zach Pop

TOR Relief Pitcher #56

Blue Jays activated RHP Zach Pop from the 15-day injured list; optioned him to Triple-A Buffalo.

Pop has been working his way back from a hamstring injury but will now stay with Triple-A Buffalo. The 26-year-old had a 6.59 ERA and 1.24 WHIP before injuring his hamstring in early May.
Kevin Gausman

TOR Starting Pitcher #34

Kevin Gausman yielded two runs over six innings on Saturday in a loss to the Tigers.

Gausman recorded seven strikeouts and only issued a pair of walks. A pair of run-scoring extra-base hits from Spencer Torkelson and Kerry Carpenter, respectively, accounted for all of the damage against him. The 32-year-old right-hander will bring a stellar 3.03 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 153/29 K/BB ratio across 115 2/3 innings (19 starts) into the All-Star break.
Nathan Lukes

TOR Left Fielder #38

Blue Jays recalled OF Nathan Lukes from Triple-A Buffalo.

Lukes has sipped a couple cups of coffee this season with the Blue Jays, and will get another look this weekend with George Springer out on paternity leave.
George Springer

TOR Right Fielder #4

Blue Jays placed OF George Springer on the paternity leave list.

Springer will likely wind up missing Toronto’s final two games this weekend before the All-Star break. He went 2-for-5 with a homer and three RBI on Friday night in the Blue Jays’ blowout win over the Twins. It’ll be Nathan Lukes coming up to take his spot on the active roster.
Whit Merrifield

TOR 2nd Baseman #15

Whit Merrifield went 2-for-5 with a home run and four RBI on Friday night, leading the Blue Jays to a 12-2 rout over the Tigers.

Merrifield smacked a go-ahead RBI single off of Alex Faedo as part of a six-run uprising in the fourth inning, then scored on a ground ball off the bat of Kevin Kiermaier. He then tagged Jose Cisnero for a 368-foot three-run shot in the ninth inning that capped off the scoring in the game. He has done a nice job for the Jays this season — slashing .286/.342/.395 with five homers, 38 RBI and 19 stolen bases.
