Jake Burger Scratched on Sunday

Texas Rangers infielder Jake Burger (quadriceps) has been scratched from Sunday's lineup. Burger was initially expected to rejoin the starting nine on Sunday after sitting out on Saturday with a quadriceps injury.

Happy Sunday, RotoBallers! We have just one more day of MLB action before we take a few days off for the All-Star break.

Jett Williams Snaps Skid with Two-Home Run Game

New York Mets infield prospect Jett Williams broke out of his slump in a big way on Friday evening. During their contest against Double-A Altoona, the top-ranked prospect in Queens went 3-for-5 with two home runs and three RBI. Before this game, Williams held a .171/.327/.244 line over his last 12 games. During this 12-game […]

New York Yankees outfield prospect Spencer Jones went 3-for-5 with a home run during their contest against Triple-A Buffalo. This performance extended his current hitting streak to six games. During this stretch, Jones has gone deep three times, added a double, and swiped five bags. Since earning the call to the top level of the […]

Baltimore Orioles catching prospect Samuel Basallo went 1-for-4 with a home run during their contest against Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday evening. This was his 18th home run of the season. The top-ranked catching prospect in the sport has looked very comfortable during his first extended look at Triple-A. Through 60 games at Triple-A this season, […]


Thayron Liranzo Goes Deep, Extends Hitting Streak to Seven Games

Detroit Tigers catching prospect Thayron Liranzo went 2-for-5 with a home run during their contest against Double-A Harrisburg on Friday evening.

During this stretch, the No. 88-ranked prospect in baseball on MLB.com has posted a .379/.438/.586 slash line with two home runs and […]


Carlos Lagrange Continues Impressive Stretch

New York Yankees right-handed pitching prospect Carlos Lagrange has continued to impress at Double-A Somerset. In his most recent outing on July 8, the No. 17-ranked prospect in the system on MLB.com logged 5 1/3 innings of one-run ball with eight strikeouts. In this outing, Lagrange served up four walks and allowed just two hits. […]


Sawyer Gipson-Long Completes Bullpen Session on Thursday

Detroit Tigers right-handed pitching prospect Sawyer Gipson-Long (neck) completed a bullpen session on Thursday. Gipson-Long was placed on the 15-day injured list on July 2 with a neck strain. This was the first time the Mercer product was able to complete a bullpen session since being placed on the injured list. Through 23 innings this […]


Braylon Payne Heating Up at Low-A

Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Braylon Payne has begun to turn the corner following his slow start at Low-A. Over his last 15 contests, last season's 17th overall pick has posted an impressive .345/.424/.638 slash line with one double, two triples, four home runs, and five stolen bases. During this stretch, he has held a 19:8 […]


Cam Collier Holding His Own at Double-A

Cincinnati Reds third base prospect Cam Collier has held a .296/.425/.366 line through his first 21 games with Double-A Chattanooga. Collier earned a promotion to Double-A earlier in June and has shown elite contact skills with a strong eye at the plate during his first look. However, his power has yet to translate to this […]


Brady House Turning the Corner in the Major Leagues

Washington Nationals third base prospect Brady House has enjoyed a productive week at the plate in the major leagues. Over his last six games, the No. 3-ranked prospect in the system has held a solid .280/.308/.320 line with a double and three RBI. Prior to this stretch, he held a much lower .232/.267/.286 line with […]


Marcelo Mayer Set to Be Primary Second Baseman

Boston Red Sox infield prospect Marcelo Mayer is expected to see the majority of the opportunities at second base going forward. Mac Cerullo of The Boston Herald noted that Ceddanne Rafaela could factor in as well, especially when facing lefties. However, it appears the top prospect is expected to have an everyday role in the […]


Colt Emerson Tallies Three Hits, Launches Home Run No. 8

Seattle Mariners shortstop prospect Colt Emerson went 3-for-5 with a double, a home run, and two RBI during their contest against High-A Tri-City. This outing extended his current hitting streak to four games. Through this four-game stretch, the top-ranked prospect in Seattle has posted two multi-hit games and tallied three extra-base hits. Over his last […]


Jefferson Rojas Goes Deep on Thursday

Chicago Cubs infield prospect Jefferson Rojas went 2-for-6 with a home run and two RBI during their contest against High-A Wisconsin.

Tekoah Roby Punches Out Six on Thursday

St. Louis Cardinals right-handed pitching prospect Tekoah Roby struck out six batters across 5 2/3 innings of work against Triple-A Charlotte. In this start, Roby picked up the victory as he allowed just six hits, no runs, and one free pass. Since allowing six runs in each of his first starts at Triple-A this season, […]


Payton Tolle Continues Dominant Run at Double-A

Boston Red Sox left-handed pitching prospect Payton Tolle tossed five innings of one-run ball during his outing against Double-A Hartford. In this outing, Tolle allowed just four hits, one walk, and struck out five hitters.

Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung went 1-for-4 with a single during their contest against Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday evening. Since being demoted to Triple-A Round Rock, the former first-round pick has tallied at least one hit in each of his five games. During this stretch, Jung has posted one multi-hit game and tallied just […]


Dodgers Send Alexis Diaz Back to Triple-A

The Los Angeles Dodgers have optioned relief pitcher Alexis Diaz back to Triple-A Oklahoma City. This transaction opened a spot for Tyler Glasnow, who returned from the injured list. He did not make an appearance in his first stint with the Dodgers. The Dodgers acquired Diaz from the Reds in a trade earlier in the […]


Tre' Morgan Hits Second Triple-A Long Ball

Tampa Bay Rays first base prospect Tre' Morgan went 2-for-4 with a home run during their contest against Triple-A Nashville. This was Morgan's third multi-hit game over his last five contests. While his power production has yet to show the top level of the minor leagues, the first baseman has shown elite eye at the […]


Lazaro Montes Continues Power Surge

Seattle Mariners outfield prospect Lazaro Montes continued to hit for power on Thursday evening. Facing Double-A Tula, the budding star went 1-for-4 with a home run and two strikeouts. This his second long ball over his last three games. Since earning the call to join Double-A Arkansas, Montes has posted an impressive .273/.388/.636 slash line […]


Robby Snelling Tosses Five Shutout Frames on Thursday

Miami Marlins left-handed pitching prospect Robby Snelling tossed five shutout frames in his return to Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday evening. Snelling was recently promoted from Double-A after enjoying a productive first half. The No. 3-ranked prospect in the system made his Triple-A debut last season but appeared in just one contest. He looked quite strong […]


Kyren Paris Placed on Triple-A Injured List

The Los Angeles Angels have placed infielder Kyren Paris (undisclosed) on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Salt Lake. The team did not specify the injury. Paris has yet to play in a game for Triple-A since July 3. The 23-year-old was very productive in the major leagues during his first 15 games of the […]
