Edwin Arroyo has been through some ups and downs as a prospect. However, the 2026 season and the month of May have been extremely high highs. Arroyo went 2-for-3 on Thursday with a home run and a walk for Triple-A Louisville, aiding a 4-2 win over Indianapolis at Louisville Slugger

We’re still months away from the holiday season, yet May has seemingly turned into the Holliday season. Rockies top prospect Ethan Holliday (MLB Pipeline’s No. 17 overall) whacked his fourth home run of the month Thursday -- and it’s only May 15. Holliday combined with fellow top-100 prospect Roldy Brito

We’ve seen plenty of inside-the-park home runs in baseball’s history, some because of the game’s speediest players and some the result of head-scratching defense. But you’ve probably never seen something like this. In the seventh inning of an 11-3 win for Double-A Biloxi over Montgomery, Rays No. 25 prospect Austin

The Padres -- and Gavin Sheets, specifically -- are making a habit out of this. Sheets brought his team out of the grave Wednesday against the Brewers, rocketing a three-run homer to right-center field in the top of the ninth inning to take the lead and later the win. The

Johnny King is the youngest player in the Northwest League at 19 years old, and he won’t turn 20 until July. But his youth has hardly stopped the lefty from absolutely dominating the competition across his first seven starts. King, the Blue Jays’ No. 4 prospect, recorded five more scoreless

The Pirates scored the first two runs of Wednesday’s 10-4 loss to the Rockies in a fashion you just don’t see every day. With the bases loaded and two outs, Henry Davis shot a hard ground ball toward third base that Kyle Karros fielded on a nifty diving stop. Karros

It has only been six games since Arjun Nimmala received a promotion to Double-A, but he has certainly made the most of that time. The shortstop posted a three-hit night Tuesday, already his third multi-hit performance since his May 5 promotion. Nimmala also scored a run to help New Hampshire

Mason Miller has been virtually untouchable as the Padres’ closer this year, meaning he doesn’t really need much outside help to generate better results. But even the owner of a 0.96 ERA and a 55.9% strikeout rate will take it when available, like when Grogu stops by Padres practice to

When the Cubs signed Alex Bregman to a five-year, $175 million contract this offseason, the move could hardly have been more celebrated by the fan base. It came after a failed pursuit of the All-Star a year ago and would seemingly replace the void left by Kyle Tucker’s departure, not

Heading into his next start on Tuesday, Paul Skenes will be hard-pressed to top what he did the last time he stepped on the mound. But then again, he’s Paul Skenes, and you should never say never with the Pirates’ young superstar. Tune in when Skenes (5-2, 2.36 ERA) faces

Protecting a 2-1 lead for the Orioles in the eighth inning of Sunday’s win over the A's, rookie right-hander Anthony Nunez worked himself into a tough spot, and then out of it. The 24-year-old issued a pair of one-out walks before striking out Brent Rooker and getting Tyler Soderstrom to

UCLA senior Megan Grant is having quite a month, just 11 days into May. After being selected with the fourth overall pick in the 2026 Athletes Unlimited Softball League Draft on May 4th, Grant hit her 38th home run of the year Sunday, breaking the single-season NCAA Division I softball

John Gil and Eric Hartman have formed quite a duo for High-A Rome to begin the 2026 season, with Sunday’s effort serving as the perfect representation. Hitting second and third in the lineup, Gil (Braves’ No. 10 prospect) and Hartman (No. 20) each had two-home-run games in a 17-4 win

Jose Altuve has pretty much every accolade to his name over 16 seasons with the Houston Astros: two World Series, an MVP, a Gold Glove and seven Silver Sluggers. Now, the nine-time All-Star can add to that list … being the namesake of a zoo animal?! The Houston Zoo announced

Remember when torpedo bats were a thing? Er … they’re still a thing. Various players around MLB use them every day. But they’re not A THING like they were just over a year ago, when the Yankees clobbered the Brewers in a three-game sweep to open 2025, outscoring the Crew

A pair of top Cardinals prospects helped drive High-A Peoria to a walk-off, 7-6 win over Wisconsin on Thursday at Dozer Park. Yhoiker Fajardo, a piece of this offseason’s Willson Contreras trade, continued his strong start on the mound with five innings on one-run ball, striking out seven and walking

Just three games into his Triple-A career, Braden Montgomery is already making his mark. Montgomery, the White Sox’ No. 1 prospect and MLB Pipeline’s No. 29 overall, tallied his first multi-hit game at the level Thursday in a 16-1 win for Charlotte over Jacksonville at Bragan Field at VyStar Ballpark.

The East-West Classic is back for the third straight year, headlined by team captains CC Sabathia (West) and Chris Young (East) among a bevy of fellow former Major League All-Stars. The full rosters for this year’s East vs. West Game at historic Rickwood Field were revealed on MLB Network on

What happens when a longtime big leaguer hangs up his cleats? Some go on to coach or stay in the sport in an off-field role. Others, they find a new day job or dive way into a new hobby. Some -- like 10-year infielder Daniel Descalso -- do both. Now

Bryce Rainer, the Tigers’ No. 2 prospect and MLB Pipeline’s No. 28 overall, is heating up. Rainer on Wednesday clobbered his first home run since being promoted to High-A West Michigan, highlighting a 2-for-3 day for the shortstop in a 4-3 loss to Dayton at LMCU Ballpark. The 11th overall

Shohei Ohtani -- leading MLB with an 0.97 ERA -- has had it all working pretty much the whole time he’s been on the mound this season. But even when he hasn’t necessarily had his best stuff, he’s made opposing batters look silly. Ohtani struck out Astros star Jose Altuve

Jefferson Rojas had a shaky start to his time in Double-A as a 20-year-old last season. Now with another trip around the sun under his belt, the Cubs’ No. 4 prospect is raking at the level. Rojas homered for the fourth time this season for Double-A Knoxville on Tuesday, helping

The baseball world lost a legend on Monday, with longtime Yankees radio voice John Sterling passing away at 87. After more than three decades of calling Yankees games and injecting his one-of-a-kind personality into every moment, Sterling will leave a legacy in both New York and baseball on a larger

If you watched the Cardinals and Dodgers series finale on Sunday, you would have seen Dustin May -- a former Dodger himself who received a World Series ring pregame -- navigate through traffic to complete six quality innings. He did so while donning the No. 3 on his uniform, this
