The shakeup is done and the dust has settled.

If you’re searching for a positive spin on the Blue Jays’ season, look no further than MLB Pipeline’s updated Top 30 Prospects list, featuring a much different group from our preseason rankings.

Toronto’s list is now peppered with names acquired at the Trade Deadline, as well as a handful of selections from this year’s MLB Draft. That whirlwind of moves amounted to a significant step in replenishing a farm system that ranked as No. 24 in MLB after three years of subtraction.

The top of the list looks pretty familiar, but 14 of these 30 prospects are new to the Blue Jays’ organization. Let’s make sense of all that change.

Here’s a look at the Blue Jays’ top prospects:

1. Orelvis Martinez, 2B
2. Trey Yesavage, RHP
3. Jake Bloss, RHP
4. Ricky Tiedemann, LHP
5. Arjun Nimmala, SS

Biggest jump/fall

Here are the players whose ranks changed the most from the preseason list:

Jump: Fernando Perez, RHP (Preseason: No. 26 | Midseason: No. 12)
The 20-year-old Perez has continued to show excellent command and an advanced feel for pitching in his first season at the A-Ball level. Signed out of Nicaragua in 2022, Perez went from under-the-radar prospect to Futures Game selection thanks to his ability to keep the ball out of the air and limit walks -- two promising traits for a young pitcher. His 82 innings with Single-A Dunedin also point to the durability this organization values in its starters.

Whether Perez continues to climb the rankings will depend on his ability to get more swings and misses and grow into some improved velocity.

Fall: Brandon Barriera, LHP (Preseason: No. 5 | Midseason: No. 18)
This is a product of misfortune more than anything else. Barriera made just one start this season before undergoing a hybrid Tommy John and internal brace procedure on his left elbow on April 29. The Blue Jays’ first-round pick (No. 23 overall) in 2022, Barriera is expected to miss the rest of the ‘24 season and at least a portion of ‘25.

Barriera pitched to a 3.98 ERA with 25 strikeouts in 20 1/3 innings between Rookie Ball and Single-A Dunedin in 2023, but the 20-year-old also dealt with arm issues along the way in that campaign. His fastball lived more in the 92-93 mph range than the 95-96 mph mark that excited scouts ahead of his Draft.

There’s a level of uncertainty around a young pitcher’s return from a UCL injury, too, and with a ton of new talent added to this system, Barriera’s stock took a hit in the rankings.
