Complete recap of the Blue Jays 2024 MLB Draft picks

14th round: J.R. Freethy
Position: OF
School: University of Nevada
B/T: S/R
Age: 21

Freethy is an interesting utility player who swings the bat from both sides and has double-digit home run potential. In 2024, he appeared in 51 games, hitting 10 home runs with 37 RBI while also walking (35) more than striking out (31). His .994 OPS is another noteworthy stat, and it's easily the highest he had in his collegiate career. Defensively, he seems to be more of an outfielder than anything else, but he also has recent appearances at second base, third base and shortstop.

13th round: Brock Tibbitts
Position: C/1B
School: Indiana University
B/T: R/R
Age: 21

Tibbitts is one of six Hoosiers (the most of an Big Ten conference team) selected in this year's MLB Draft. He at one point made 149 straight starts in college, but that streak ended in April when he sustained a meniscus injury. Still, he appeared in 46 games, hitting 18 extra-base hits with a .303 batting average and .875 OPS. He has experience behind the plate, at first base and the corner outfield, but it sounds like he's joining the Blue Jays as a primary catcher.

12th round: Carson Messina
Position: SP
School: Summerville High School (South Carolina)
B/T: R/R
Age: 18

Messina seemed destined to fulfill his commitment to the University of South Carolina, but he is instead signing with the Blue Jays to being his pro career. The right-hander was considered one of the top pitching prospects in the state this past season and relies heavily upon a mid-to-upper-90s fastball and mid-80s slider. In his senior year, he struck out 33 of the 75 batters he faced, which should say a lot about whether he's ready to take his game to the next level or not.

11th round: Troy Guthrie
Position: SP
School: Parish Community High School (Florida)
B/T: R/R
Age: 18

Guthrie has added five miles per hour to his four-seam fastball over the past few years and feels like a good bet to further that once he turns pro. Last year, he made the Florida All-State first team thanks to a miniscule 0.44 ERA and 121 strikeouts in just 63 innings of work.

10th round: Carter Cunningham
Position: OF
School: East Carolina University
B/T: L/R
Age: 23

Cunningham looked highly impressive in his 2024 collegiate season, hitting 17 home runs while driving in 66 runs and scoring 77 of his own. He drew as many walks as strikeouts (38) and had a jaw-dropping 1.118 OPS. Reports have surfaced that he's already signed with the Blue Jays, and that he's going to join the organization strictly as an outfielder after playing 60 games at first base for ECU last year.
