Rosters won’t be announced for another week or two, so we’re happy to lend a helping hand. We’ve assembled a list of prospects we hope to see in the AFL in case clubs need some suggestions.

Blue Jays: Kendry Rojas, LHP (No. 12)
Rojas was out of the High-A Vancouver rotation for nearly three months due to a shoulder issue but has dominated since his July 9 return with a 2.16 ERA and 56 strikeouts in 50 innings.
