Charles McAdoo will be making his major league debut for the Blue Jays in the coming days
The Toronto Blue Jays are looking to go on a run as it looks to carve out a playoff spot in a cluttered American League.
The Blue Jays entered Thursday with a 27-29 record, third in the American League East and are in a three-team tie with the Athletics and Minnesota Twins for the final wild card spot.
Toronto will be looking to get back to a winning record with a four-game series against AL East rivals, the Baltimore Orioles, at 6:35 p.m. ET on Thursday at Camden Yards in Baltimore.
That series will likely mark the major league debut of one of the top prospects in the Blue Jays' farm system, who will be looking to make an impact on the team.
According to a report from ESPN MLB insider Jeff Passan, Toronto plans to call up infielder Charles McAdoo.
There was no report on who the Blue Jays will send down or designate for assignment to make room for McAdoo.
McAdoo has only been a professional ball player for three years, but those sets of years have been eventful.
The versatile infielder, who's capable of playing first, second or third, was picked in the 13th round of the 2023 MLB Draft by the Pittsburgh Pirates.
McAdoo spent a year in the Pirates farm system and advanced as high as Double-A before being dealt to Toronto in return for Isiah Kiner-Falefa and cash.
The Blue Jays extended McAdoo a non-roster invite to spring training in 2025 and 2026. He played nine Grapefruit League games in '25 and 19 in '26.
This spring, McAdoo slashed .194/.265/.355 with a .620 OPS and hit two doubles and a home run with four RBIs.
Coming out of spring, McAdoo was assigned to the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons.
In his first season of Triple-A ball, McAdoo .250/.357/.432 with a .789 OPS in 50 games and has hit six doubles, a triple and eight home runs with 27 RBIs.
McAdoo is ranked as the team's No. 26 prospect per MLB Pipeline.
It's not certain if the 24-year-old will be up temporarily to fill a spot on the roster or if Toronto has somewhat permanent for him.
But, with the amount of injuries the Blue Jays have had this season, there's a non-zero chance an impactful stint could lead to a longer stay in the big leagues. Outfielders Yohendrick Pinango and Jesus Sanchez are two players who have taken advantage of their unexpected opportunities.
