Jacob Wilson, the sixth-overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft, will be suited up for Oakland on March 15. The A's No. 1 prospect -- fresh off an invite to big league camp -- looks to show off his 65-grade hit tool against the cross-bay rival Giants. More »
Astros
Just because the Astros don't have any players on MLB Pipeline's Top 100 list doesn't mean the organization won't have some top-notch talent on display at Spring Breakout. With Houston coming off its seventh consecutive ALCS appearance, its next batch of contributors will be on full display. More »

Mets
When the Mets acquired three prospects at the 2023 Trade Deadline for Max Scherzer and Justin Verlander, the immediate payoff may have been hard to see.

NATIONAL LEAGUE WEST
D-backs
The D-backs' roster for Spring Breakout will be loaded, and manager Torey Lovullo is excited in particular to see some of the organization's prospects who are not in big league camp. Included in that group are Tommy Troy and Druw Jones, the team's top Draft picks from the last two years. More »
Dodgers
