Recently acquired New York Mets infield prospect Jefferson Rojas cranked his first home run on Tuesday as a member of his new organization, as part of a three-hit night for Binghamton. It was the second three-hit performance in his last three games, and the Mets' newly-anointed top-ranked prospect is now slashing .272/.340/.470 with 16 home […]

It's been a really exciting last two weeks for prospect promotions, starting with Max Clark debuting on the last day of July. Since then, we've also seen George Lombard Jr., Kaelen Culpepper, Angel Genao, and Hagen Smith debut, among others. I don't believe this wave is done, either, as the threshold for teams to call […]

Houston Astros second baseman/outfielder Jose Altuve (foot) had imaging on his foot, which came back negative, manager Joe Espada told Brian McTaggart of MLB.com.

Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Brice Turang (thumb) suffered a sprained thumb in the loss to the San Diego Padres at Petco Park on Tuesday, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com.

Seattle Mariners second base/outfield prospect Michael Arroyo was already hitting well since his promotion to Triple-A, but the power potential has been on full display as of late. The Mariners' fourth-ranked prospect has belted a home run in three of his last four contests for Tacoma; he's now hit eight doubles, a triple, and six […]

Washington Nationals infield prospect Seaver King is on a roll at Triple-A since his return from the injured list.
