Prospect Roundup August 7th Games: Alexander and Hiraldo

CJ Alexander (Danville 2018) and Miguel Hiraldo (Bluefield 2019) were standout prospects Wednesday.

Braves 3B CJ Alexander , Double-A Mississippi: 2-for-5, 2 HR, 3 RBI, 2 R -- A 20th-round pick last year, Alexander had not gone deep in any of his previous 86 Minor League games. But he flipped the script Wednesday with two roundtrippers for the M-Braves. The No. 19 Atlanta prospect crushed his first long ball in the first inning and capped his night with another dinger in the seventh. Ryan Casteel also collected three hits, including two homers to raise his season mark to 19. 
Blue Jays 3B Miguel Hiraldo , Rookie Advanced Bluefield: 2-for-4, HR, 2B, 5 RBI, 2 R, 1 BB -- Make it a career-high five RBIs for the 18-year-old, who has plated eight runs in his last two games. Toronto's 10th-ranked prospect extended his hitting streak to seven games and connected on his sixth homer of the year -- a grand slam in the top of the eighth. In his last 10 games, Hiraldo is 14-for-45 (.311) and has scored 11 times.
