Arjun Nimmala's Strong Start Prompts Big Rise Up Prospect Ranks
Arjun Nimmala, who started the year as MLB.com's 78th-ranked prospect overall, has moved up to the 59th-ranked prospect overall. That's a jump of 19 spots and the fourth-biggest move higher out of all the top 100 prospects. The 20th pick in the 2023 MLB Draft belted 16 home runs at Single-A last year in 82 games, although it came with a 31.3 percent strikeout rate. Fast forward to 2025, and the 19-year-old is hitting .280 with seven home runs at High-A through 29 games, and while the power is still there, the strikeout rate has fallen all the way to 20.5 percent, a marked improvement over 2024. The 6-foot-1 slugger has an ETA of 2028 according to MLB.com, so dynasty managers have some time to watch the youngster's development.
