Among other notables was Walker Jenkins (Twins) recording

We hope you like homers because Friday’s Minor League action had a whole lot of ‘em. From coast to coast, some of the game’s premier prospect sluggers brought out the big bats -- but none more than Lazaro Montes, who walloped a 475-foot tater at Double-A. Not to be outdone,

ARLINGTON -- The Harry Ford era isn’t ready to take off quite yet. The Mariners’ No. 5 prospect, and MLB Pipeline’s No. 60 overall, joined the club in Arlington on Friday, taking part in the pitchers’ meeting and catching four or five bullpens before the game. However, he won’t be

The day began with fireworks as one of the sport's top international prospects had himself a game that will be hard to top. The Mets' Elian Peña did a few games' worth of damage in just seven innings, launching a trio of homers and driving in eight runs. But the

It was a busy night around the Minors filled with hard-hitting performances, ace-level pitching gems and even a milestone.

The penultimate weekend of June has come and gone, and in the Minor Leagues that means first-half clinchings were on the line and big performances were just as important as ever. Sunday featured no shortage of those across the Minors, and as the weather continued heating up, the bats led

It was a busy Saturday around the Minors and there was no shortage of notable performances from some of the best prospects in the game. Jonah Tong's fourth double-digit strikeout outing of 2025 enabled him to become the first Minor Leaguer to surpass 100 K's, while dual-handed pitcher Jurrangelo Cijntje

Some of the game's most well-known and talented prospects came through with big-time performances during a busy day of Minor League action. From Lazaro Montes' ongoing power display to Jordan Lawlar's rocket double to Kevin McGonigle's unrelenting hitting prowess, offense was well represented. But Carlos Lagrange made sure pitching prospects

It was a fairly balanced slate around the Minors with some top-notch pitching performances -- highlighted by 2024 first-rounder Chase Burns -- as well as a second straight monster game from Colt Emerson. Hurlers Quinn Mathews and Robby Snelling made notable starts and Kyle Freeland left the yard for a

The hitters came to play as another week of Minor League action took flight. Up and down the farm, prospects swung the heavy lumber and a number of Top 100 prospects did the heavy lifting. More roundtripper hijinks by Jordan Lawlar and Samuel Basallo plus a four-hit performance by Owen

There was offense galore to kick off a weekend of Minor League action, with Top 100 prospects Jordan Lawlar, Kevin McGonigle and Co. leading the way. Burgeoning slugger Michael Arroyo continued his power surge, as did Brice Matthews, who came within one extra-base hit of cycling on consecutive days earlier

There was plenty of offense to go around with plenty of familiar names coming through at the plate, including a handful of Top 100 talent. Pirates teen sensation Konnor Griffin continued his hot-hitting ways at High-A while a pair of Big Apple youngsters flexed their muscles at Double-A. Out west,

Friday night was for the pitchers, who dominated up and down the Minor League landscape, including several noteworthy performances from Top 100 prospects. The Blue Jays' Trey Yesavage continued to pile up the K's, while the Marlins' Thomas White and the Cards' Quinn Mathews were on point. Plus, the High-A

A day that began with a tremendous pitching performance from a Top 100 prospect ventured into the offensive side of things as the night wore on. A Rangers outfielder made like a runaway train, riding it all the way to a cycle during a career-best performance while a Padres prospect

SEATTLE -- Cole Young couldn’t sleep Friday night. The Mariners’ No. 3 prospect had been pulled in the fourth inning of Triple-A Tacoma’s game against Salt Lake, getting his callup to the Majors. He had been so shocked in the dugout that he made Rainiers manager John Russell repeat himself

SEATTLE -- The Cole Young era began with murmurs 35 miles south of T-Mobile Park on Friday, when the 21-year-old infielder was pulled in the fourth inning of Triple-A Tacoma’s game. It became official a few hours later, when sources confirmed to MLB.com’s Daniel Kramer that the Mariners were indeed

SEATTLE -- With the remarkable run that he’s been on at Triple-A Tacoma, and the Mariners’ clear need at his position, what else do the Mariners possibly want to see from second-base prospect Cole Young before calling him up to The Show? “Nothing,” Jerry Dipoto said on Friday.

When the Mariners took high school hitters in the first round of three straight Drafts, no one would have been shocked to learn that Cole Young -- taken in the middle of the three, after Harry Ford and before Colt Emerson -- would be the first to reach Seattle. That's

There must be something in the air because the ball was flying on Friday night, with top prospects homering from coast to coast. Jac Caglianone continued his demolition derby at Triple-A, while Rangers top prospect Sebastian Walcott lassoed the first multihomer game of his young pro career at Double-A. That
