With the selection of Lawlar and other new updates out of Minor League Baseball, let’s dive into an updated ranking of the D-backs’ top-five prospects.
The Orioles were not buyers at this year’s trade deadline, something that should not be a surprise to anyone. Instead of dealing away top players John Means, Trey Mancini, or Paul Fry, Baltimore decided to stand pat.
In 2018, the Colorado Rockies selected Shelby Lackey in the 18th round of the MLB draft. Since then he has seen his stock rise in three minor league seasons. Although Lackey was the 546th overall pick, he was one of the Rockies’ top 30 prospects at the beginning of the 2021 campaign.
The Blue Jays’ farm system has been shaken up and rearranged. Let’s dive into the new five faces who make up the future of baseball in Toronto.
The Los Angeles Angels farm system has improved greatly in past five years. In large part to successful draft selections, trade acquisitions and strategic international signings.
This year’s MLB trade deadline came and went, with a ton of deals made in the final hours. One move managed to fly under the radar involving a closer with two extra years of team control going to a team that is in the playoff mix. The trade in question? The Braves sent arms Bryse Wilson and Ricky DeVito to Pittsburgh for right-hander Richard Rodriguez.
When the Red Sox signed Kevin Plawecki before the 2020 season, he was not known for his offense. Over the past two years, however, that has not been the case. Through 63 games with Boston, he has been an on-base machine. While the Red Sox have struggled of late, Plawecki has been a bright spot. As the 2021 season winds down, the Red Sox will need the Purdue product to continue his current production.
Let’s dive into the full list of the Braves’ top-five prospects, complete with grades, analysis, and more.
The Yankees added more solid depth through the July draft, and have some pieces on the way to making their debuts sooner rather than later. While this season has been a disappointment based on their standards and expectations, the team and farm system are still very much built for success.
The New York Mets held a firm lead on the rest of the NL East for two months. The keyword is held because they’re currently looking up at the Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies.
In the minors, the Brew Crew doesn’t have a lot of depth in the pitching department. However, they do have very good hitters at the top including three outfielders.
One would think the Los Angeles Dodgers’ farm system took a major hit when they traded RHP Josiah Gray and C Keibert Ruiz. While that is somewhat true, they are still pretty stacked in the minors, especially at the top.
