    Minor League Baseball Daily Thread for April 13, 2022

    April 13, 2022 / Comments Off on Minor League Baseball Daily Thread for April 13, 2022

    Minor League Baseball Top Performers After the first “off day” of the minor league baseball season, games were back in full force on Tuesday, with some incredible performances at the plate and on the mound, which made selecting the top performers a challenge! Hitter of the DayThe Phillies drafted T.J. Rumfield out of Virginia Tech in the 12th round last summer. He comes with a baseball background, as his father played for 12 years in the minors across five organizations but never got a major league shot. The Yankees saw something that they liked in Rumfield, and they acquired him in the offseason in a four-player deal. Rumfield has an…

    Minor League Baseball Top Performers After one week of minor league baseball (one weekend for non-Triple-A leagues), there have been plenty of impressive performances at all levels. On a weekly basis, I intend to produce this list on Tuesdays rather than a regular daily performers list to highlight the weekly performers. The statistics are through Sunday for each player, and the intention will be that any player highlighted in the hitter or pitcher of the week will only get the honor once in the season in order to highlight as many players as possible throughout the season (though if a player is worthy of multiple hitter/pitcher of the day recognition…

    Minor League Baseball Top Performers The first weekend of the minor league baseball season is complete, and with that comes the first Monday off day for nearly every team in the minor leagues today. With no performances to review tomorrow, look for a “top performers of the week” post on Tuesday, something we’ll do each week throughout the season! Hitter of the DayThe Orioles drafted Hudson Haskin out of Tulane in the second round of the 2020 draft. The outfielder showed excellent plate discipline and flashed double-plus speed despite battling a thumb fracture in 2021. The real test for a college bat is hitting upper level pitching, however, and Haskin…

    Minor League Baseball Top Performers The minor league baseball season has hit full stride, with the selection for hitter of the day and pitcher of the day getting tougher with a full slate of full-season league games each day now. Hitter of the DayThe Minnesota Twins drafted Christian Encarnacion-Strand out of Oklahoma State in the fourth round in 2021. He had a big pro debut, hitting .391/.424/.598 in 87 at-bats with Fort Myers at Single-A. He’s definitely not slowed down to open 2022, picking up nine hits in his first ten at-bats of the 2022 season, including four extra base hits. Saturday, the Cedar Rapids third baseman went 5-5 with…

    Minor League Baseball Top Performers The top pitching prospect in the game debuted and the rest of full-season leagues joined Triple-A in play on Friday night as the minor league season is now truly underway! Hitter of the DayPortland infielder David Hamilton was originally drafted by the Brewers out of Texas in the 8th round in 2019. He missed the 2020 season but worked his way up to Double-A in 2021 before he came to the Boston Red Sox organization as part of the Hunter Renfroe trade. It would be hard to have a better first night with a new organization than what Hamilton did on Friday, going 4-5 with…

    Minor League Baseball Top Performers It’s Opening Day for the “rest” of Minor League Baseball today after having a few days of Triple-A baseball alone. Enjoy! Hitter of the DayIn a game that featured four long balls, Worcester shortstop Ryan Fitzgerald accounted for a pair of them, going 2-3 with 3 RBI on the day and adding a walk as well. Fitzgerald has been part of the Red Sox organization since signing as an undrafted free agent out of Creighton, and he’s meticulously worked his way up the Red Sox system with consistent bat-to-ball skills, but swing work during the pandemic both allowed Fitzgerald to tap into his raw power…

    Minor League Baseball Top Performers Hitter of the DayWith a number of good choices on the day, Ryan Kreidler takes the nod here with a perfect day at the plate for Toledo. He went 3-3 with a walk, scoring twice and driving in two runs on a pair of solo home runs, but the Mud Hens still fell to Rochester 6-3. Kreidler had a strong offensive season in 2021 between Double-A and Triple-A, smacking 22 home runs with a .803 OPS while playing the left side of the infield. He’s made a start at third and short so far this season for Toledo. Pitcher of the DayAfter setting Yankee Twitter…

    Minor League Baseball Top Performers Hitter of the DayPedro Leon came to the Astros with big expectations from Cuba last season. He struggled with injury and performance over the course of the 2021 season. His first game with Sugar Land was much better, however, as he went 3-5 at the plate, lacing a double and showing off his plus speed when he took off and stole a base in the seventh inning. The biggest question remaining for Leon is his defense, and that was still present as he committed two errors at shortstop on Opening Day. Pitcher of the DayInterestingly, the guy who threw the first pitch of the minor…

    Atlanta Braves top 100 prospects in the organization

    October 1, 2020 / Comments Off on Atlanta Braves top 100 prospects in the organization

    Atlanta Braves 2022 top 100 prospects The Atlanta Braves won the 2021 World Series with a roster dominated by players who had come up through the farm system. The 2022 team saw multiple players graduate, and the Braves’ farm system is now legitimately the 30th-ranked system in the game, but there is still plenty of raw talent. Each prospect is going to have the age as of April 1, 2023, highest 2022 level, Rule 5 eligibility information, and my version of a projected future value for each player. Updated: December 15, 2022 Preface: each list is with the players in the system at the time of the list and with…
