The Minor League Daily Sheet: June 6 2021
The Minor League recap you crave! It was a busy Sunday afternoon in the baseball world as NCAA regionals were in full swing, MLB featured a full slate, and the minor leagues were finishing up their weekly series before the Monday off day (for all leagues but Triple-A). In this vein Geoff (Triple-A/Double-A), Rhys White (High-A), and Matt Thompson (Low-A) ran through all the happenings.

Breaking Down All 109 of MLB's 40-man Addition
Top 10 Prospects of Each AL Central Team
2019 International League Preview
I like to think of AAA more like a waiting room than a level per se, not every player even stops through AAA these days, and many are there for just a matter of weeks. It’s often rosters cluttered with failed prospects, long shots, and fringe MLB regulars that need a little seasoning. The International League, at least on paper far exceeds those expectations. With Vladimir Guerrero Jr. technically highlighting, there’s a strong crop behind him in Bo Bichette, Nick Senzel, Touki Toussaint, Dylan Cease, Nate Lowe, and others. The first half of the year should be deep with prospect showdowns particularly those games in which Gwinnett is involved. The Braves affiliate boasts the most loaded rotation and staff in the minors with three Top 100 arms on the roster. Should be a fun group to follow as many of these future stars debut on the big stage.
2018 Arizona Fall League Preview: Mesa Solar Sox
After finishing as the runner-up to Peoria in 2017, the Solar Sox bring a somewhat sub-par roster into 2018 league play. The highlights include a strong infield, some athletic outfielders, and a strong defensive catcher in Jake Rogers. Then again, this is the Arizona Fall League, who cares about records and such? We’re here for the prospects. A product of your affiliates organizational depth, Mesa draws from the Red Sox, Cubs, Tigers, Angels, and A’s. Not exactly the strongest group to pull from when the Tigers, Angels, and A’s don’t send their biggest name talent. That’s not to say there isn’t a strong group of future major leaguers to follow, but more on that below it’s the 2018 Mesa Solar Sox Preview.
