NORTH PORT, Fla. -- Spencer Schwellenbach flashed his potential when Spring Breakout games hit the scene in 2023, and JR Ritchie introduced himself to Braves fans during last year’s event.
Who will be some of the next young Braves to shine? We may get a better feel during this year’s Spring Breakout game.
What is Spring Breakout?
In 2026, MLB Spring Breakout will again be a four-day event showcasing baseball’s future -- the current stars of Minor League Baseball – in 16 exhibition games played between teams composed of each MLB organization’s top prospects. The third edition will be held from March 19-22 at Grapefruit and Cactus League stadiums during Spring Training.
In 2027, Spring Breakout will be expanded into a single-elimination tournament format, with champions being crowned in both the Grapefruit and Cactus leagues.
