The Blue Jays have now assigned Kuhn to the Buffalo Bisons but there is a good chance that he begins the season in Double-A as he has yet to play Triple-A in his career.
During the 2025 season, Kuhn split time between High-A and Double-A in which he finished with a combined 4.78 ERA in 52.2 innings pitched along with 43 strikeouts in 38 games.
This seems to be a solid depth move for the Blue Jays farm system as Kuhn has put up some solid numbers across the board since turning pro back in 2019.
Despite having a busy day at the Rule 5 Draft, Blue Jays fans are hoping to see more from their team at the Winter Meetings that these minor league moves.
