Moises Ballesteros Fitting In Already At Triple-A
Chicago Cubs catching prospect Moises Ballesteros was promoted to Triple-A on Monday, and in his two games for Iowa, the 20-year-old is 5-for-8 (.625) with a double. He's even thrown out a runner on an attempted steal in a display of his defensive prowess. He's shown he can hit at every level, and at 20 […]

Dylan O'Rae Promoted To Double-A
Milwaukee Brewers second baseman prospect Dylan O'Rae was promoted to Double-A Biloxi on Tuesday. The 20-year-old hit .266 with a .405 OBP and led the Midwest League in stolen bases with 33 before his promotion.

Dylan Crews Hits First Triple-A Home Run
Washington Nationals outfield prospect Dylan Crews made his Triple-A debut on Tuesday, and on Wednesday in his second game there, the former first-round draft pick recorded his first hit for Rochester.

Ian Anderson Makes First Rehab Start After Tommy John Surgery
Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Ian Anderson (elbow) made his first minor-league rehab start since having Tommy John surgery in April of 2023. Anderson made the start for the Florida Complex League Braves and pitched two innings. While brief, the outing was about as good as one could have hoped for, as the righty retired all […]

Logan Wagner Slugs Four Homers In Big Week
Los Angeles Dodgers corner infield prospect Logan Wagner is a talented switch-hitter selected in the sixth round of the 2022 draft. Thus far, he has mainly been viewed as a power hitter, though it's worth noting that he's been able to get on base at a very high clip thanks to plenty of walks. Sluggers […]

Alejandro Rosario Tosses Seven Scoreless Frames
Texas Rangers pitching prospect Alejandro Rosario had previously generated some buzz as a potential Day 1 draft pick last year but ultimately fell to the eventual World Series champions in Round 5. He relies quite heavily on his mid-90s fastball, but he throws a very effective low-80s slider, too. He has also done a great […]

Dakota Harris Showing Off Some Power
St. Louis Cardinals prospect Dakota Harris is a middle infielder who found his way to the organization during the 11th round of last year's MLB Draft. The Oklahoma product has already contributed at the plate, putting plenty of balls in play and even flashing some power. On a less exciting note, he's striking out too […]

Brad Lord Improves To 7-1 This Year
Washington Nationals starting pitching prospect Brad Lord is a former 18th-round pick out of South Florida who has truly ascended and is putting together some incredible performances in the 2024 campaign. The 24-year-old gets good velocity behind his fastball, but he does need to do a better job harnessing his control, especially late in counts. […]

Kristian Campbell Makes Quick Impression At Double-A
Boston Red Sox prospect Kristian Campbell is a former fourth-round pick out of Georgia Tech who has had one of the fastest ascensions to prominence in all of Minor League Baseball. At the plate, he makes good contact, peppers all parts of the field, and minimizes whiffs. He's more of a line-drive hitter and can't […]

Tyler Black Back With The Brewers
The Milwaukee Brewers recalled infield prospect Tyler Black from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday and optioned infielder Oliver Dunn to Nashville in a corresponding move. The club's No. 3 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, made his major-league debut earlier this year but only played in seven games and went 5-for-22 (.227) with no home runs, two stolen […]

Should I Stash Jackson Jobe In Redraft Leagues? Fantasy Baseball Prospect Outlook (Week 13)

Brandon Drury Under The Weather, Scratched From The Lineup
Los Angeles Angels infielder Brandon Drury (illness) was scratched from Wednesday's starting lineup against the visiting Milwaukee Brewers due to an illness.

Nolan Jones Scratched With Illness
Colorado Rockies outfielder Nolan Jones (illness) was scratched from Wednesday's lineup against the visiting division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers due to an illness.

St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado (elbow) is considered day-to-day after getting hit by a pitch on his right elbow in Wednesday's game against the Miami Marlins.

Walker Buehler Going On The Injured List
Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Walker Buehler (hip) is going on the injured list with a hip injury. Manager Dave Roberts said that Buehler had been dealing with some hip discomfort, even before another ugly outing on Tuesday night at Coors Field against the Colorado Rockies. This will give Buehler a chance to reset after his […]

CJ Abrams Getting An MRI On His Wrist
After being scratched from Wednesday's game against the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks, Washington Nationals shortstop CJ Abrams (wrist) is getting an MRI exam on his left wrist. Abrams is unsure how he hurt his wrist, although the 23-year-old did run into Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll during Carroll's stolen base attempt on Tuesday. Until we know the […]

Jackson Merrill Continues Power Surge
San Diego Padres outfielder Jackson Merrill remained hot at the plate during Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. The rookie outfielder went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in the victory. It marked his eighth home run of the season and his fifth over the last seven games. The 21-year-old has been crushing everything lately […]

Bryce Harper Launches Two Homers
Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper came ready to play during Wednesday's game against the San Diego Padres. The superstar slugger went 2-for-4 with a pair of home runs during Wednesday's loss. Harper tied the game with a no-doubt blast in the third inning. Sadly, it wasn't enough as the Padres took the game 5-2 […]

Sean Murphy Blasts Two Home Runs
Atlanta Braves catcher Sean Murphy was seemingly the entire offense during Wednesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. The veteran catcher went 4-for-4 with a pair of two-run home runs in the 7-0 victory. Murphy was slumping at the plate, but four hits and four RBIs will certainly help that. He missed the first two months […]

Bryan Reynolds Blasts Go-Ahead Homer
Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds came up clutch for his team during Wednesday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. The switch-hitter took right-hander Nick Martinez deep in the eighth inning to break the scoreless tie. His go-ahead blast ended up being the only score of the game. The 29-year-old is now batting .343 with three home […]

Mitch Keller Tosses Seven Scoreless Innings
Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Mitch Keller was impressive during Wednesday's matchup against the Cincinnati Reds.

Hunter Greene Records Nine Strikeouts
Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Hunter Greene looked seemingly unhittable during Wednesday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The right-hander matched a season-high nine strikeouts over 6 1/3 shutout innings during Wednesday's loss. Greene was given a no-decision as neither side scored a run until he was out of the game. The Pirates had no answers for […]

Houston Astros designated hitter Yordan Alvarez (personal) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Chicago White Sox. The veteran slugger will miss back-to-back games due to a family matter. The details of the situation are unknown, but hopefully Alvarez will be able to return soon. In the meantime, Yainer Diaz […]

Should I Stash Heston Kjerstad In Redraft Leagues? Fantasy Baseball Prospect Outlook (Week 13)
Baltimore Orioles outfield prospect Heston Kjerstad received two short stints in the major leagues over the past two seasons and held a cumulative .205/.286/.364 slash line with two home runs across 20 games. Unfortunately, he was unable to find consistent playing time during these stretches, which ultimately resulted in him being sent back down to […]

Pete Fairbanks Tests His Thumb Wednesday
Tampa Bay Rays closer Pete Fairbanks (thumb) is in the outfield doing long toss and playing catch under the watchful eye of head athletic trainer Joe Benge before Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Twins.

Charlie Blackmon Held Out Wednesday
Colorado Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon (hamstring) is being held out of Wednesday's starting lineup against the visiting division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers. Right-hamstring tightness caused Blackmon to hit the showers early in Tuesday's game, so fantasy managers shouldn't really be surprised the 37-year-old veteran isn't playing the next day. Blackmon is considered day-to-day, but it's unclear […]

David Hamilton Returns For Red Sox
Boston Red Sox infielder David Hamilton (side) is back in the starting lineup for the Red Sox on Wednesday against the division-rival Toronto Blue Jays, playing shortstop and batting second against Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman.
