The Toronto Blue Jays put together an excellent 2025 draft class and somehow managed to secure all of their draft picks. This team did exactly what they needed to, especially considering the hit that the farm will take after the MLB Trade Deadline.

With the amount of prospects that could depart from this organization, we've got to keep a close eye on the prospects that Toronto just added. Out of those bunch, the question is, which ones could replace these trade chips in the organization's top 30 prospects?

Here are the Blue Jays top draft picks that could join the teams' top 30 prospects.

Jojo Parker is easily going to enter the top 30 regardless of any trades. He likely would slide in at number three behind Trey Yesavage. The very talented prep shortstop was an outstanding pick in round one and has some of the highest upside in the entire draft.

"Parker has a chance to be a plus hitter with 20-25 homers per season," MLB Pipeline wrote. "He has a sound left-handed swing, manages the strike zone well and employs a gap-to-gap approach. He shows some feel for driving balls in the air and is posting more impressive exit velocities as he continues to gain muscle."

His upside is unreal and Toronto is fortunate to have him. Following him, is Jake Cook, the third round speedster. His 80 grade speed will easily get him ranked and if the Blue Jays can begin developing him into professional baseball, he could quickly become a player with four tools. Power will likely never really come for him and that's fine if his hit tools can develop to go with that speed and defense.

Lastly in this list is Jared Spencer, who somehow fell to Toronto in the 11th round. MLB Pipeline had the southpaw ranked as the 113th ranked prosepct. He did have shoulder surgery and before that his velo got up to 97 with a great changeup. Being ranked that high indicates that he could jump into the rankings at any point when he is healthy. Teams were skeptical about the health and rightfully so, yet Toronto took the risk and it looks like a postive one.
