Year 3 of Core Rankings is here I ranked all 30 MLB teams based on the players they have under team control through 2026. We have a new #1 and one division leader is ranked 17th. espn.com/mlb/insider/st…

I ranked the top 15 players who graduated from prospect status this season. Ranked for long-term career value, not for ROY or the rest of 2024. It's a very deep group so I shouted out some big risers who just missed the list at the end espn.com/mlb/insider/st…

Had a flashback to two late pop-up Georgia high school prospects in the 2018 MLB Draft. I saw both at a predraft showcase and liked them, but they weren't top two round types then Taj Bradley got $750k from TB in the 5th round Lawrence Butler got $285k from OAK in the 6th round

News: The Minnesota Twins released catcher Derek Bender, their sixth-round pick this year, after he tipped minor league opponents the pitch that was coming during at-bats of a game with playoff implications, sources told me and Kiley McDaniel. Details at ESPN: espn.com/mlb/story/_/id…

ICYMI last night, this is the craziest story I’ve ever reported by a mile and also the weirdest baseball story I’ve heard in a long time.

This isn't shocking, but I don't think many fans realize this rebuild is limited by something else. Even though the White Sox are on pace for the most losses since 1899 (!), the White Sox can't pick higher than 10th in next year's draft, due to anti-tanking measures in the CBA.

With the 4th inning of tonight's start complete, Nate Eovaldi now has a player option for next season at $20 million due to throwing 300 innings over the last two seasons. I would guess he opts out this winter and gets multiple years, but it's nice to have that money guaranteed.

Brewers SS Cooper Pratt is being called up to Double-A Biloxi for the playoffs with the High-A season over, per sources. Pratt is 51 on my updated Top 100. Bryce Eldridge, Aidan Miller & Walker Jenkins are the other 2023 HS draftees to reach AA this year. espn.com/mlb/insider/st…
