Yeah so Xavier Neyens, after hitting one over the batters eye at 108 MPH, hit his 2nd HR of the game and Derek Datil didn’t even bother to look. He’s already recorded EVs of over 116 MPH in his first pro season. Absurd power from a 19 year old.

Luis Hernandez, the #1 INT prospect in the 2026 class, is a tooled up 17-year-old who excelled against competition much older than him. He displays quick hands at the plate and has plenty of pull-side XBH power against multiple offerings combined with advanced actions at SS.

Theo Gillen, the No. 1 prospect in the Rays system, has 2 HR tonight, both to the pull side. He was the only prospect last season in the minors to have a wRC+ of 150 or higher, 35+ SB, and a BB% over 17%. Tapping into more raw power this season would be awesome.

Luis Arraez being overrated is something I’ll never get BA over .314 in 5/6 seasons OBP in the .350-.390 Range 110 wRC+ in 5/6 seasons Yes, he doesn’t have high WAR numbers due to defensive limitations and his OBP is similar to guys with low BA’s But he’s best at what he does

Theo Gillen is absolutely insane right now. He adds his 9th HR of the season and is now hitting .330 with a 1.099 OPS. I don't know how many prospects are hotter than him right now. He was a high riser in the last updates, and he looks like a potential T-20 prospect.

Seth Hernandez was up to 101 MPH in the Dominican Republic with his 70-grade fastball and displays a CB with up to 3,000 RPMs, a CH with/ late fade, good arm action, and also has SL/FC manipulation. Very low effort + extremely polished for his age.
