by | Feb 26, 2025

Before too long, players like ECU alum Carter Cunningham will be hitting the field for their respective minor league teams.

The Toronto Blue Jays prospect will begin season two with the Dunedin Blue Jays in Florida. The team’s first game is scheduled for April 4 vs. Clearwater.

Last season, Cunningham — a 10th-round pick in 2024 by the Blue Jays — batted .197 (15 hits, 76 at-bats) with 14 runs, two homers, 12 RBIs and three stolen bases.

He recently spoke with Unique Pathways presented by H3 Media host Ben Rekosh about his senior season and the accolades that followed, being drafted, adjustment to the pro level and more.
