Of these four players only Bichette (ranked 100th in MLB Pipeline prospects) and Guerrero (28th) have a good chance to make the majors. And even then they are both still a few years out.

Toronto already has an exciting legacy player breaking into the league. Although Dwight Smith is not the household name of the other four, he did play 873 games over an eight year career.

Dwight Smith Jr. is turning some heads with the Jays and could be the first in a long line of legacy players.

The chances of all four making it is highly unlikely, but could you imagine if all four of these young men became Toronto Blue Jays at the same time? That would make for one truly exciting pre-game ceremony for Fathers Day Weekend.
