Photo by Richard Rodriguez/Getty Images We have come to the final installment of our 2025 top Atlanta Braves prospects, and the first thing I would like to do is thank everyone who followed along and who has contributed to the list. Without the staff here we couldn’t give you guys such in depth coverage of the Braves system, and without you guys reading we wouldn’t be able to build a staff like this.

Photo by Julio Aguilar/Getty Images We’re now 60% of the way through the top 30, with pitching becoming the ever more looming presence on the list with five pitchers in this section. The Braves have received criticism for their struggle to develop their international hitting, investing significant money since the sanctions ended only to see no international hitter really have a breakout just yet.

Photo by Diamond Images via Getty Images We now jump forward into our second group of players of our top 30 Atlanta Braves prospects, heavily represented by recent introductions to the system. The Braves have, it’s no secret, focused heavily on building pitching depth at every level of the minor leagues, to the point that from the FCL on up through Double-A nearly every start is made by a player with a legitimate prospect pedigree.

Drake ranked #20 on our Preseason Top 30 Prospects list after making his professional debut for a short 19 game stint in the FCL to end the 2023 season.

He was the crown jewel of that class for the Atlanta Braves, as the Venezuelan outfielder ranked among the Top 10 prospects in the class according to multiple rankings - though he did rank a bit lower on some other rankings. Guanipa received a $2.5M signing bonus.

Gonzalez was signed by the Braves as an international free agent out of the Dominican Republic for just $50k in January 2022. Gonzalez was an under the radar signing, and at least eight other players in that class signed with the Braves for more money - including Diego Benitez and Douglas Glod.

Image Credit: Mills Fitzner A third round pick by the Atlanta Braves back in 2020, Jesse Franklin has had issues staying on the field since his final college season. Franklin was the Braves third rounder in the shortened 2020 MLB Draft out of Michigan. He was initially seen as a possible first round pick after a big 2019 season leading the Wolverines to the College World Series, but an off-field accident and the season shutdown prevented him from seeing the field in his final college season.

Photo by Diamond Images via Getty Images One of the few Atlanta Braves prospects that was a highly drafted hitter, Cal Conley came into the 2024 season hoping to rebound from a poor performance in 2023. Conley was the Braves 4th round pick in the 2021 MLB Draft out of Texas Tech. Conley started his college career at Miami but transferred to Tech before playing in a game. He played in his first 18 games in 2020 before the season shut down, making the 2021 season his breakout college season.
