It seems over the last couple years that each time a blue chip prospect comes up to the majors, there is another one waiting to get the call. This past season the first to make the jump was former first round pick Nate Pearson.
Drafted in the first round of the 2017 MLB draft as compensation for the team losing Edwin Encarnacion, the Blue Jays selected Nate Pearson.
