Rhett Lowder Begins Rehab Assignment at Triple-A Louisville

Cincinnati Reds pitching prospect Rhett Lowder (oblique) began a rehab assignment on Saturday at Triple-A Louisville. The Reds' second-ranked prospect has dealt with both a forearm and an oblique injury this season, which has limited him to just three appearances at Triple-A this year, including Saturday's start. The right-hander allowed one earned run on two […]


Denzer Guzman Called Up from Triple-A Salt Lake

Los Angeles Angels infield prospect Denzer Guzman was called up from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday for his major league debut. The Angels' ninth-ranked prospect was having a solid season, which began at Double-A and continued at Triple-A in early August, slashing .247/.343/.426 in all with a .359 wOBA and 119 wRC+, but had been […]


Owen Caissie Exits With Concussion Symptoms on Saturday

Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Owen Caissie (concussion) was recalled by the team on Saturday, but in his first game back, the Cubs' top-ranked prospect ran into the wall in the Wrigley outfield chasing down a ball in the third inning. He initially stayed in the game, but left in the sixth inning with concussion symptoms. […]


Casey Washington Out With a Concussion in Week 2

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Casey Washington (concussion) did not pass the league's concussion protocol and will be inactive on Sunday against the Vikings. The 24-year-old had his best game in the NFL last week, hauling in three of his six targets for 33 yards, but suffered a concussion during the fourth quarter of the contest. […]


Atlanta D/ST Should be Avoided in Road Matchup Against Vikings

The Atlanta Falcons defense/special teams ranked in the bottom third in points allowed per game last season (24.9) and struggled to get after the quarterback, finishing with the second-fewest sacks in the NFL (31). Both issues were apparent in Week 1, as the Falcons yielded 23 points to the Buccaneers and sacked the opposing quarterback […]


Tyler Allgeier a Low-End Flex Against Tough Minnesota Run Defense

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier earned double-digit touches in Week 1, although against a stout Tampa run defense, he was unable to convert them into much production, logging just 24 yards on 10 totes. The 25-year-old back was a non-factor in the passing game, not even drawing a single target compared to Bijan Robinson's […]


Younghoe Koo Not a Preferred Option at Kicker in Week 2

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo was 2-for-2 on extra points in Week 1 and 2-for-3 on field goals, but the one field goal he missed was a 44-yarder that could have tied the game and sent it to overtime. We'll see if that shakes his confidence after making just 73.5 percent of his field goals in 2024, […]


Kyle Pitts Sr. a Volatile Low-End TE1 in Week 2

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. had a nice start to the season in Week 1, drawing eight looks from quarterback Michael Penix Jr., which was second-most on the team, and he recorded seven catches for 59 yards. While it was encouraging to see the rapport with his young QB after drawing a total of 10 […]


Ray-Ray McCloud III Still a Viable PPR Option After Solid Week 1

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III garnered five targets in Week 1, turning them into three receptions for 51 yards with a long of 24 yards. That's about as good as one could hope for from the veteran receiver, and although the team gets Darnell Mooney (shoulder) back in the mix this week, Casey […]


Darnell Mooney Practices in Full, Will Make Season Debut on Sunday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney (shoulder) was a full participant in practice on Friday after being limited earlier in the week, and heads into Sunday night's matchup with the Vikings without an injury designation. The 27-year-old should slide back into his role as No. 2 receiver behind Drake London (shoulder), who also practiced fully on […]


Michael Penix Jr. a Solid QB2 Option Against Banged-Up Vikings Defense

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr. performed well in Week 1, completing 27 of 42 passes for 298 yards and a touchdown without throwing an interception, while also adding six rushes for 21 yards and a score. In Week 2, he'll have a road matchup with the Minnesota Vikings, who were tough against the run […]


Bijan Robinson a High-Floor RB1 Despite Tough Matchup

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson ran into a wall in Week 1 versus the Buccaneers, gaining just 24 yards on 12 attempts. However, he salvaged his day in the passing game, garnering seven targets and catching six of them for 100 yards receiving, which included a 50-yard touchdown scamper. The 23-year-old could have a […]


Drake London Practices in Full, Projects as Low-End WR1 With Upside

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (shoulder) was a full participant at practice on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. The 24-year-old suffered a shoulder sprain in Week 1 but appears to be on track to play in Sunday night's matchup against Minnesota. The former first-round draft pick was heavily involved last week, drawing 15 […]


Charlie Condon Headlines Rockies Prospects Headed to AFL

Colorado Rockies first base/outfield prospect Charlie Condon is headed to the Arizona Fall League (AFL) this October as one of eight prospects who will represent the Rockies, playing for the Salt River Rafters squad. The 2024 third-overall draft pick got a late start to the season after suffering a wrist injury in spring training, and […]


Ethan Salas Will Head to Arizona Fall League in October

San Diego Padres catching prospect Ethan Salas (back) will head to the desert this October to take part in the Arizona Fall League (AFL). Salas is the highest-ranking of eight Padres prospects who will participate in the AFL. The Padres' top prospect missed all but 10 games this season due to a stress reaction in […]


Kristian Campbell Staying Ready at Triple-A Worcester

Boston Red Sox infielder/outfielder Kristian Campbell continues his push to get back on the major league roster, going 3-for-5 on Thursday with a double, two runs scored, and a stolen base for Triple-A Worcester. The 23-year-old has three multi-hit efforts in his last four games, and is hitting .329 with a .913 OPS over his […]


Travis Bazzana Removed With Oblique Injury on Thursday

Cleveland Guardians second base prospect Travis Bazzana (oblique) was removed from Thursday's game at Triple-A Columbus with left oblique soreness. The Guardians' top-ranked prospect missed two months earlier this season due to an oblique injury, although that was on his right side. The 2024 top draft pick was promoted to Triple-A in mid-August, and although he was […]


Eduardo Tait Helps Cedar Rapids to Victory in Game 2

Minnesota Twins catching prospect Eduardo Tait helped High-A Cedar Rapids to a 5-3 playoff victory over High-A Beloit (Miami) on Thursday, going 2-for-3 with a walk and a pair of doubles, driving in two runs and scoring twice in the contest. The win evened the series at one game apiece in the best-of-three series, with […]

The focus of this article is to highlight players who could be on the verge of a breakout, citing current active hitting streaks along with recent leaders in batting average, stolen bases, and isolated power (ISO). This week, […]


Joe Mack Homers in Fourth Straight Game

Miami Marlins catching prospect Joe Mack went just 1-for-4 on Tuesday for Triple-A Jacksonville, but his lone hit was a big one, a two-run walk-off home run in the bottom of the 10th inning. The Marlins' third-ranked prospect has now homered in four straight games and five of his last seven, bringing his season total […]


Sebastian Walcott Headlines Ranger Prospects Headed to Arizona Fall League

Texas Rangers shortstop prospect Sebastian Walcott will participate in the Arizona Fall League (AFL), one of eight players from the organization that will head to the desert. Walcott has played all season at Double-A, and at only 19 years old, he's performed admirably. The Rangers' top-ranked prospect is hitting .251 on the year, but is […]


Chase DeLauter, Daniel Espino Headed to Arizona Fall League

Cleveland Guardians outfield prospect Chase DeLauter (wrist) is headed to the Arizona Fall League (AFL) this October. He'll be joined by seven other Guardians prospects, including one of the team's former top-ranked prospects, pitcher Daniel Espino. DeLauter has endured a multitude of injuries during his time in the minors, having never played in more than […]


Daniel Susac Placed on Triple-A Injured List

Athletics catching prospect Daniel Susac (undisclosed) was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday. The nature of the injury is not clear, but if he can make it a minimum stay on the IL, then he could return in time for the Pacific Coast League playoffs. The Athletics' 12th-ranked prospect […]


Josue De Paula, Kendall George to Participate in Arizona Fall League

Los Angeles Dodgers outfield prospect Josue De Paula is one of eight Dodger prospects set to participate in this year's Arizona Fall League (AFL). The Dodgers' top-ranked prospect (MLB No. 12) had a strong season at High-A, where he slashed .263/.406/.421 with 12 home runs and 32 steals. Impressively, the 20-year-old walked (81) nearly as […]


Kevin McGonigle Set to Participate in Arizona Fall League

Detroit Tigers infield prospect Kevin McGonigle highlights a crew of seven that the team will send to the Arizona Fall League (AFL) in October, playing for the Scottsdale Scorpions. The Tigers' top-ranked prospect (MLB No. 2) seemingly cruised through the regular season, slashing .301/.408/.566 in 84 games across various levels, but lost in all that […]


Graham Pauley to Begin Rehab Assignment on Wednesday

Miami Marlins infielder Graham Pauley (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday. The 24-year-old has been on the injured list with an oblique strain since mid-August, but could soon rejoin the Marlins. That could mean recent call-up Maximo Acosta's time in Miami is coming to an end, or at least at the […]


Enrique Bradfield Jr. Headlines Baltimore's Arizona Fall League Contingent

Baltimore Orioles outfield prospect Enrique Bradfield Jr. is headed to the Arizona Fall League (AFL) this October, part of a seven-man contingent that the O's will be sending there. Baltimore's prospects will play for the Peoria Javelinas, and the season will begin on October 6. Many players are sent to the AFL to either work […]


Aidan Miller Headed to the Arizona Fall League

Philadelphia Phillies shortstop prospect Aidan Miller headlines a group of Phillies prospects headed to the Arizona Fall League (AFL) in October. The season begins on October 6, with Miller, Otto Kemp, and others representing the Surprise Saguaros. The 21-year-old Miller was a bit slow out of the gates this year, but finished strong, batting .361 […]


Dillon Head Back in Action at High-A Beloit

Miami Marlins outfield prospect Dillon Head (undisclosed) was activated from the 7-day injured list at High-A Beloit on Tuesday. It's not clear what was ailing the former first-round draft pick, but he hasn't played since August 20, which was his debut for Beloit after getting promoted from Single-A Jupiter. The Marlins' 11th-ranked prospect slashed .224/.336/.318 […]
