Over the last few weeks, the Boston Red Sox farm system has reached new heights. The Red Sox currently have the ninth-best system in baseball and added more talent in the 2021 MLB Draft. One player who has gotten off to a hot start is TCU product, Phillip Sikes.
New York still has a deep system that includes top-30 prospect Francisco Alvarez and three more top-100s in Ronny Mauricio, Brett Baty, and Matt Allan. The Mets also have Mark Vientos and J.T. Ginn in the wings.
The Rockies were expected to be major sellers at the deadline, moving free agent to be Trevor Story among others. For now, let’s take a look at who they have at the top of their system in 2021.
Over the last few weeks, the Boston Red Sox have been one of the worst teams in baseball. While Boston has gone 7-10 in August, one bright spot has been Kyle Schwarber.
Cincinnati had an excellent draft in July. In fact, their first four picks from this year are in the organization’s top 12 prospects according to MLB.com. Did any of them make the top 5?
Things have felt better this week for the Diamondbacks. It doesn’t make up for everything that has come before it but there is at least progress.
The Pittsburgh Pirates were busy adding to their prospect pool at this year’s trade deadline. With the departure of veterans such as Adam Frazier and Richard Rodriguez, that process has been further emphasized.
The Washington Nationals improved their farm system considerably, especially at the top, trading Max Scherzer and Trea Turner to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Let’s take a look at who makes the top five.
For the majority of the 2021 season, Bobby Dalbec has struggled. As the calendar has flipped to August, Dalbec is hitting over .400 and has been an RBI machine. As Boston looks to secure a playoff spot, they will need Dalbec’s bat.
August 12, 2021, will forever be known as the day when the inaugural Field of Dreams game took place. What transpired was a game for the ages.
St. Louis has three prospects in MLB.com’s Top 100 currently. A couple of their other prospects could also move up into that select group. Let’s take a look at how the Cardinals’ top talent looks on the farm.
