Blue Jays' JoJo Parker: Packed on muscle this winter
Parker says he's added 20 pounds since he was selected eighth overall by the Blue Jays in the 2025 MLB Draft, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.
The 19-year-old shortstop was projected to grow into his power at the plate, but it could arrive more quickly than anticipated. Parker will make his professional debut in 2026, likely at Single-A Dunedin, and while the organization won't want to rush him up the ladder, he could make a lot of noise as the top hitting prospect in the system.
