JoJo Parker

19-Year-Old ShortstopSS
Toronto Blue Jays A
2026 Fantasy Outlook
Parker's approval rating among scouts is as high as any position player in the 2025 First-Year Player Draft. He doesn't have any 60s on his scouting report, but he has a bunch of 50s and 55s, with his hit and power tools leading the way. A twin whose brother Jacob is heading to Mississippi State, JoJo is a lefty hitter who measures in at 6-foot-2 and 200 pounds. He has an above-average arm but lacks the quick-twitch actions and foot speed of a no-doubt shortstop, so the expectation should be that Parker ends up a power-hitting third baseman who is a slight positive in average and OBP. It's hard to confidently project any prep prospect's future stolen-base potential, as Aidan Miller showed us in 2025, but scouts grade Parker as an average runner. The fact Parker didn't officially debut after the Jays selected him eighth overall adds a bit of mystery to the equation. Read Past Outlooks

Heating up at Single-A
SSToronto Blue Jays  A
June 25, 2026
Parker went 1-for-4 with a solo home run for Single-A Dunedin on Wednesday.
Analysis
The homer was Parker's fourth in the last six games, and through 17 contests in June he's produced a .290/.384/.629 slash line with nine total extra-base hits, six steals and a much-improved 20.5 percent strikeout rate. The eighth overall pick in the 2025 First-Year Player Draft out of a Mississippi high school, Parker needed a couple months to adjust to pro ball, but if he maintains his current level of performance for another few weeks he could reach High-A before his 20th birthday in August.
