Toronto Blue Jays prospect Riley Tirotta has been mashing in the Minors leagues and everyone should be hopping on the hype train.

Across Single-A, Double-A and Triple-A, Tirotta has been putting up great numbers which must be the reason why he has started in A-ball and moved up through the ranks so quickly.
Riley Tirotta has quietly been putting together a 2023 Davis Schneider esque run in the minor leagues this year. Across A/AA/AAA this year hes slashing:

.292/.451/.557
1.008 OPS
24.4 BB%
25.0 K%
10 HR
27 RBI
181 wRC+

Keep an eye on him at Buffalo. He's hit 2 HRs tonight.

In Yesterdays AAA matchup, he launched 2 Home runs that came off the bat at 110.4 MPH and 107.2 MPH respectively. He also had 2 singles in the game putting at 4-4.
The 25-year-old middle infielder was drafted in the 12th round of the 2021 MLB amateur Draft.
In AAA alone he is putting up his best numbers to date, hitting .338/.444/.721, with an outstaring 1.165 OPS. He has also accumulated 7 home runs in just 18 games with the Bisons.
If the kid keeps slugging like this, it will be sooner rather than later when the Blue Jays come calling, especially with the news regarding the suspension of recent call-up Orelvis Mart�nez.
