by | May 17, 2025

It looks like East Carolina alum Carter Cunningham will have some company with him in the minors.

ECU alum Trey Yesavage has been promoted to High-A Vancouver, MLB.com reported on Friday evening. The Toronto Blue Jays’ No. 2 prospect will be joined by No. 10 prospect Khal Stephen and Gage Stanifer, who were three starting pitchers with the Dunedin Blue Jays.

Cunningham played first base for the Canadians on Friday and was 0-for-4 at the plate in a 7-6 loss to Everett. He is currently batting .205 this season.

MLB.com reports Yesavage will start Tuesday for the Canadians. The Blue Jays’ top prospect, Arjun Nimmala, shortstop, also plays for Vancouver.

Yesavage, 21, had a 2.43 ERA and 55 strikeouts over 33.1 innings with Dunedin. He struck out seven or more in his final five games with Dunedin, including a season-high 12 on Tuesday.
