Saturday's top prospect performers

Here's a look at Saturday's top Minor League performers from each team's Top 30 Prospects list:

AMERICAN LEAGUE EAST

Blue Jays: Riley Adams, C (No. 30) -- 3-for-5, HR (4), 3 RBI (Double-A New Hampshire)
Riley’s first home run in the Eastern League was a go-head two-run shot in the top of the ninth inning. The 22-year-old’s homer capped a three-hit, three-RBI performance. With four home runs in 26 games, the 2017 third-rounder out of San Diego has already matched the career-high total he posted over 99 games with Class A Advanced Dunedin in 2018.

Orioles: Blaine Knight, RHP (No. 10) -- 6 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 BB, 5 K (Class A Adv Frederick)
Making his Florida State League debut, Knight, the Orioles’ third-round pick from the 2018 Draft, retired 16 of the final 18 batters he faced after Seth Beer (Astros’ No. 10) tagged him for a solo shot with two outs in the first inning. The performance was more of the same for the 22-year-old right-hander, who still is yet to give up more than three hits in a start so far this season, while completing at least five innings in each. The Orioles promoted Knight to Frederick after he posted a 0.83 ERA, 0.55 WHIP and 38/5 K/BB in 32 2/3 innings (six starts) for Class A Delmarva.

Rays: Vidal Brujan, 2B (No. 7, MLB No. 93) -- 2-for-3, 2 R, 2 BB, 2 SB (Class A Adv Charlotte)
Entering the day in a 2-for-22 funk at the plate, Brujan reached base four times via two hits and two walks and scored a pair of runs. He also swiped two bases, giving him a Florida State League-leading 16 steals (in 20 attempts) on the season. Overall, the 21-year-old switch-hitter sports a .280/.358/.390 line though 30 games.

Red Sox: Bobby Dalbec, 3B (No. 3) -- 4-for-5, 3 HR (6), 2B, 3 RBI, 4 R, BB (Double-A Portland); Josh Ockimey, 1B (No. 26) -- 2-for-4, 2 HR (8), 2 RBI, BB (Triple-A Pawtucket)
Dalbec accounted for all of Portland’s runs and hits through 11 innings, as he hit solo home runs in the fourth and sixth innings and added a double in the eighth. He connected on his third home run of the game in the 12th inning, going back-to-back with Brett Netzer to pad the SeaDogs' lead. He’s hit four of his six homers in the last three games, and it’s safe to say there will be many, many more to come for the 23-year-old after he finished fourth in the Minors with 32 home runs in 2018. Ockimey pushed his Triple-A home run total to eight with his second multihomer game of the year. The 23-year-old is already nearly halfway toward reaching the career-high 20 home runs he hit last season, including five in 27 games at the Triple-A level.

Yankees: Glenn Otto, RHP (No. 26) -- 4 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 4 BB, 5 K (Class A Adv Tampa)
Starting the nightcap of Tampa’s doubleheader against Fort Myers, Otto issued four walks but still completed four scoreless frames. That type of performance has been a theme for the 23-year-old right-hander this season, as he’s now allowed two walks or more in four of five starts, but given up more than two runs just once. Altogether, he’s registered a 2.78 ERA with 27 strikeouts and 14 walks in 22 2/3 frames for the Tarpons.

The 22-year-old right-hander, Cleveland’s second-round pick in last year’s Draft, has not given up a run in seven of eight outings to begin his first full season, pitching to a 1.08 ERA with 12 strikeouts in 8 1/3 innings overall.

Royals: Khalil Lee, OF (No. 2) -- 1-for-4, 2B, RBI, BB, 2 SB (Double-A Northwest Arkansas)
The 20-year-old outfielder is 11-for-12 on the basepaths this season after swiping a pair of bags as part of a 1-for-4 performance that included a double and a walk. He’s hitting .260 so far this season, with nine extra-base hits, 19 runs scored and 16 RBIs through 32 games.
Royals prospects stats »

Tigers: Brock Deatherage, OF (No. 22) 2-for-5, HR (1), 3B, 3 RBI, 2 R (Class A Adv Lakeland)
Deatherage, a 10th-round pick from the 2018 Draft, hit his first homer of the season in his first multihit game since May 3. The 23-year-old hit .326 in 60 games after the Draft last season, but has struggled in his full-season debut and is hitting just .203 through 22 games.
Tigers prospects stats »

Twins: Ryan Jeffers, C (No. 16) -- 2-for-3, R, BB (Class A Adv Fort Myers)
Jeffers, 21, was one of three Fort Myers players to finish with multiple hits in the nightcap of a doubleheader against Tampa. It was his fourth multihit performance in the last 10 games, during which he owns a .389 average. A second-round pick in 2018 Draft out of UNC Wilmington, Jeffers is hitting .290/.353/.398 in his first full season.
Twins prospects stats »

White Sox: Bryce Bush, 3B/OF (No. 21) -- 2-for-5, HR (2), 3B, 3 RBI (Class A Kannapolis)
Bush put the Intimidators ahead for good with his two-out solo shot in the seventh inning -- his second extra-base hit in as many at-bats after he tied the game with a two-run triple in the fifth. A 33rd-round pick who signed for $290,000 (sixth-round money), the 19-year-old is hitting .237/.326/.407 with 13 extra-base hits over 31 games in his first full season.

AMERICAN LEAGUE WEST

A’s: Nick Allen, SS (No. 15) -- 2-for-5, 3B, 2B, RBI (Class A Adv Stockton)
You might not have noticed, but Allen is starting to show a little pop at the plate. Allen certainly isn't known for his power, but he has multiple extra-base hits in back-to-back games and has at least one extra-base hit in four straight games. Allen, 20, has also homered three times through 33 games this season after failing to go deep over 121 games a season ago.
A's prospects stats »

Angels: Jose Suarez, LHP (No. 5) -- 5 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 3 BB, 4 K (Triple-A Salt Lake)
Suarez's second start of the season was just as dominant as his first.

Suarez pitched across three levels last season and posted a 3.92 ERA over 117 innings.

Astros prospects stats »

Mariners: Ljay Newsome, RHP (No. 30) -- 6 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 4 K (Class A Adv Modesto)
Newsome became the first Minor Leaguer to reach the 60-strikeout mark this season and did so in 45 2/3 innings. The 22-year-old racked up 125 strikeouts over 143 2/3 innings in 2018. Newsome spent the vast majority of 2018 with Modesto and has fared well in his return this season, pitching to a 2.56 ERA.

Rangers: Eli White, 2B (No. 16) -- 1-for-3, BB (Triple-ANashville)

Mesa hit a walk-off single for the Hammerheads in the bottom of the 11th to finish with three hits, matching his career high. The multihit performance was the 22-year-old outfielder’s second during his 10-game hit streak. Signed for $5.25 million last October after he had previously defected from Cuba, Mesa has hit .256/.286/.282 with two extra-base hits and six steals over 27 games in the Florida State League. Holloway, 22, paced Jupiter on the mound as he turned in his fourth scoreless performance in six starts, allowing one hit in 5 1/3 innings. Armed with a plus fastball-curveball combo, the former 20th-round pick (2014) has held opposing hitters to a .098 average while striking out 28 in 25 innings this season, albeit while issuing 21 free passes.

Cubs: Tyson Miller, RHP (No. 19) -- 7 IP, 5 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 3 K (Double-A Tennessee)
Miller gave up one run over seven innings and his ERA actually rose to 0.94. The 23-year-old has posted back-to-back scoreless starts (12 1/3 innings) entering Saturday and has been nothing short of dominant in his first taste of Double-A. Miller, who the Cubs selected back in 2016 (fourth round) threw 62 of his 88 pitches for strikes and yielded just a solo homer. The win over Birmingham was also the first start this season in which Miller didn't issue a walk.
