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 on mechanics or to make up for lost reps due to injury, and Bradfield Jr. fits the latter profile. The Orioles' fourth-ranked prospect missed a lot of time earlier this season due to a hamstring injury, logging just 67 games between High-A, Double-A, and Triple-A. In all, the 23-year-old speedster hit .253 with a .366 OBP thanks to a strong 14.0 percent walk rate, and he stole 34 bases. There's a good chance we'll see the former first-rounder in the big leagues next year, and his speed alone will make him intriguing for fantasy.
