The Toronto Blue Jays have a new shortstop

Other than pitchers, the Blue Jays have invested heavily in shortstops over the year, with prospects such as Josh Kasevich and Josh Rivera among their more notable signings.

Top prospect Orelvis Martinez also initially came up as a shortstop before being moved off the position.

This is actually Ramon's third season experiencing Dunedin, having played 27 games with them in 2023 and 52 games with them in 2024.

The fact that Ramon was promoted to Dunedin in the first place is not insignificant. Many IFAs signed as teenagers never make it that far, so the Blue Jays clearly see the talent and the potential that Ramon has.

While he has yet to hit his first professional home run, Ramon is on-base machine, putting up a .404 clip last year and having an overall career mark of .394. He also contributed 27 RBIs in 52 games last year, stole 11 bases, and walked more than he struck out.

He's exactly the type of player we've come up to the Blue Jays recently - both Alan Roden and Spencer Horwitz were evidence of high on-base guys, and if he keeps doing what he's been doing, he could conceivably wind up in Vancouver sooner rather than later.

He will be an interesting one to watch over the next several seasons.
