Arizona Fall League Preview: 2016 Scottsdale Scorpions

The Yankees drew the short end of the bunch by getting paired with the Los Angeles Angels prospects. That isn't to say that Taylor Ward isn't a good player, he just isn't an elite talent. The Scottsdale Scorpions are a top heavy team, but even that talent doesn't compare to other clubs in the league. Editor's Note: Purchase a […]

Arizona Fall League Preview: 2016 Salt River Rafters

The Salt River Rafters are filled to the brim with batting prospects worth watching. Likewise, they lack any rotation worth noting.

Arizona Fall League Preview: 2016 Mesa Solar Sox

Arizona Fall League Preview: 2016 Glendale Desert Dogs

This year's Arizona Fall League rosters contain a lot of the top talent in minor league baseball. The fall league isn’t always a platform for promotion straight to the big leagues like Triple-A. Instead, the AFL is a place for prospects to showcase their skills against some of the top talent and bolster their chance […]
