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.
When is the Giants’ game?
The Giants’ contingent will take on a team of Reds prospects on March 19 at 1:05 p.m. PT at Scottsdale Stadium.
How can I tune in?
Notable position players
The Giants’ squad will be headlined by power-hitting first baseman Bryce Eldridge, who is ranked the club’s No. 1 prospect (No. 25 overall) by MLB Pipeline. The 21-year-old slugger made his Major League debut as a September callup last year and is battling for a spot on the Opening Day roster this spring.
A quartet of promising middle infield prospects -- Josuar Gonzalez (No. 2), Luis Hernández (No. 3), Jhonny Level (No. 4) and 2025 first-round Draft pick Gavin Kilen (No. 5) -- could also see action in the game.
Gonzalez is viewed as the most electric talent of the bunch, as the 18-year-old switch-hitter has drawn comparisons to Francisco Lindor and José Reyes ever since signing with the Giants for $2,997,500 last year. Gonzalez made his professional debut in the Dominican Summer League in 2025, batting .288 with an .859 OPS and four home runs over 52 games.
Notable pitchers
The strength of the Giants’ system lies in their young position players, but the organization has a few intriguing arms coming down the pipeline, as well. San Francisco’s top pitching prospect is left-hander Jacob Bresnahan (No. 8), who earned California League Pitcher of the Year honors after logging a 2.61 ERA over 22 starts with Single-A San Jose in 2025.
Keyner Martinez (No. 11), Argenis Cayama (No. 13) and Luis De La Torre (No. 17) will also be worth keeping an eye on, as the trio of right-handers impressed after reaching Single-A San Jose last summer.
Roster details
To accommodate the player movement involved with the World Baseball Classic and to create greater flexibility for clubs and farm directors, Spring Breakout rosters are being constructed in two phases in 2026. Clubs initially submit a preliminary 40-man player pool on Thursday, March 5, which will then be pared down to the official 23-27 man rosters on March 18.
The preliminary 40-man player pools consist of the team’s Top 30 prospects, as determined by MLB Pipeline, minus any injured players, players on a Dominican Summer League roster or players on the 40-man roster who have elected not to participate. The pools also include 10 or more additional unranked prospects submitted by the club to replace the above ranked prospects who are not participating.
