Royals outfielder Asbel Gonzalez is challenging for the Minor League lead in steals (35 in 37 games) in his first extended taste

For years, Christian Moore and Jac Caglianone laced up their cleats against one another in the SEC. A rivalry that spanned Florida, Tennessee and other landmarks across the South moved to Salt Lake City this week as the Royals and Angels' top prospects got simultaneous Triple-A promotions. So it was

With all the hype that has surrounded Roman Anthony over the past two seasons, it’s easy to forget how young he really is. MLB's No. 1 prospect played 70 games at the highest level of the Minors before he could order a beer. But he can now. Roman Anthony turned

Lovers of the long ball had a lot to feast upon in Thursday's Minor League action. Angels 2024 first-rounder Christian Moore continued his torrid start at Triple-A while a pair of catchers -- the O's Samuel Basallo and the Kyle Teel of the White Sox -- both cleared the fences

Much of the baseball world has been fascinated with the Mariners' High-A affiliate this spring because of switch-pitching sensation Jurrangelo Cijntje, but the Everett AquaSox also hold the unique distinction of having four Top 100 overall prospects among their everyday starting nine. And no one among that group has light-tower

One of the D-backs’ most promising hitting prospects will miss out on the rest of the 2025 season.

When a pitcher throws 103 mph, you’re likely to shoot up in your chair. Even in this era of elevated velocity, that isn’t a reading you see very often, especially in the Minor Leagues. Only 15 Major Leaguers have touched such a number in the Statcast era (since 2015), and

As the end of May draws near and we recognize the 2025 Draft is less than two months away, it's hard not to catch Draft fever. We'll be talking about it more and more as the big event draws near. Sometimes, you don't even realize it enters into your thinking.

Outstanding nights in the Minor Leagues came from a wide variety of sources and across almost every level on Wednesday.
