Luisangel Acuña brilla con una jornada de 4 hits en Doble-A

Jul 27, 2023 | mlb.com | Stephanie Sheehan

En el séptimo tramo, Acuña continuó con su gran noche empalmando un doble hacia el jardín derecho, para su 23er batazo de dos bases de la temporada, antes de estafarse la antesala; ubicándose a tres robos de igualar su tope personal de 44, que impuso en el 2021. Los Rangers han hecho titulares en los últimos años, gracias al potencial de los lanzadores que tienen en sus fincas. Sin embargo, el venezolano Luisangel Acuña ha recordado últimamente todo lo que puede ofrecer al bate.
Rangers' Evan Carter, Luisangel Acuña show out for Double-A Frisco

Jul 26, 2023 | mlb.com | Stephanie Sheehan

The Rangers have made headlines in recent years for their promising crop of young arms in the farm system. But Evan Carter and Luisangel Acuña are here to remind everyone that the future is bright at the plate, too.
Giants prospect Brett Auerbach makes unreal leaping catch

Jul 21, 2023 | mlb.com | Stephanie Sheehan

The Giants’ utility man has manned five positions across two levels in 2023 -- second base, third base, left field, center field, catcher -- and in 29 games with High-A Eugene, he’s only played as a backstop five times. But it’s clear that the sporadic time at the position hasn’t zapped his defensive abilities one bit.
Padres top prospect Jackson Merrill hits first Double-A home run

Jul 20, 2023 | mlb.com | Stephanie Sheehan

Jackson Merrill has officially brought his sweet-swinging ways to Alamo City. MLB’s No. 9 overall prospect launched his first Double-A home run -- his 11th dinger of the year -- as part of his second straight three-hit effort in the San Antonio Missions’ . The 20-year-old has hit safely in five of his first six games at the Double-A level and is clearly not fazed by the increased difficulty of pitching -- he only has two strikeouts in 28 at-bats for the Missions.
Pirates Termarr Johnson collects four hits, two homers

Jul 14, 2023 | mlb.com | Stephanie Sheehan

Before Friday, the top Pirates prospect had one four-hit effort, one multihomer game and one four-RBI performance to his name, all accomplished in different games. Now, the 19-year-old has two of each, and he achieved all three feats on the same night. Johnson went deep in his first at-bat of the game and his last, collecting two bunt singles in between as he reached base five times and totaled a career-best 10 bases in Single-A Bradenton’s over Dunedin.
Yankees prospect Tyler Hardman hits three home runs

Jul 1, 2023 | mlb.com | Stephanie Sheehan

It’s been a fruitful past two weeks for the 18th-ranked Yankees prospect. He slugged his first multihomer game of the season on June 17, notched another one on Wednesday and, three days later, left the yard three times in the infielder’s first career three-homer game for Double-A Somerset in its . “Obviously, it felt really good,” Hardman said.
Tigers top prospect Keith homers in first Triple-A AB

Jun 28, 2023 | mlb.com | Stephanie Sheehan

Wherever Colt Keith goes, he mashes. And if anyone needed more proof of that, look no further than his first game with Triple-A Toledo. Just two pitches into his first at-bat after being promoted from Double-A Erie, MLB’s No. 42 prospect clobbered a 425-foot homer to straightaway center. He went on to reach base four more times, ending his day by being intentionally walked with two outs and a runner on second in extra innings. Needless to say, Keith’s reputation precedes him, and for good reason.
Here are the first 6 players named to Futures Game rosters

Jun 26, 2023 | mlb.com | Stephanie Sheehan

Rodríguez, White and Crawford each stand within the top three on their organizations’ top prospect lists. The versatile Rodríguez (MLB No. 39), signed in 2018, rose from High-A to Triple-A Indy last season and ranks as the Pirates’ No. 3 prospect. The right-handed White (MLB No. 48) has risen through the ranks just about every year since he was drafted in 2018 and is now the Rangers’ top-ranked pitching prospect.
Florida's Wyatt Langford collects five hits in College World Series Finals

Jun 25, 2023 | mlb.com | Stephanie Sheehan

Florida needed a big effort to stay alive in the College World Series Finals. Wyatt Langford was eager to answer the call. MLB’s No. 3 Draft prospect played a big part in the Gators’ historic 24-4 rout of LSU in Game 2 on Sunday in Omaha, Neb., going a perfect 5-for-5 with four runs scored, six RBIs and the second-longest home run in Charles Schwab Field history, second only to the 456-foot dinger he hit on June 16.
Top Mets prospect Parada notches a pro first to open High-A second half

Jun 23, 2023 | mlb.com | Stephanie Sheehan

One home run sailed far over the fence. The other bounced off the wall and rolled into center field. No matter how the dingers played out, top Mets prospect Kevin Parada still touched ‘em all twice for his first career multihomer game. “It felt good,” Parada said. “It’s a good way to get the second half of the High-A season going. Hit a home run, felt good … then got the inside-the-park home run. I don’t even remember the last time I did that.
