Athletics

One thing to know: I liked the A's top few picks, and their fourth pick (RHP Jacob Dudan) was the last cut from the top 10, with RHP Kade Morris just behind him as LHP Gage Jump and CF Henry Bolte graduated.

Arizona Diamondbacks

One thing to know: RHP Blake Bryant (2026 comp round) was the last cut and has a chance to jump on if his stuff as a pro looks like the best he showed this spring, into the upper 90s with above-average off-speed stuff.

Atlanta Braves

One thing to know: The system feels restocked now, with real battles all over this top 10 and a tough last cut in CF Carter Beck (2026 first round); he'll jump on with a month of strong performance, just at a bit tougher level than the Missouri Valley Conference. Same goes for Hirschkorn jumping when he's back to hitting the mid-90s the way he has at times.

Baltimore Orioles

One thing to know: I gave Booth the top spot because of his star potential, over some safer prospects with lower upside. C Ethan Anderson was a tough final cut as the system gets a bit deeper.

Boston Red Sox

One thing to know: Three more 2026 draftees behind Schaffner are in the mix for the next few spots: CF Owen Hull, SS Jace Mataczynski, and CF Martin Shelar. RHP Marcus Phillips just needs a walk rate under 5 BB/9 to get back in that mix.

Chicago Cubs

One thing to know: Cole Mathis was traded to the Mets, and Kevin Alcantara and Pedro Ramirez graduated, making room for new draftees. Bailey gets the nod over Jonathon Long and James Triantos because of his plus-plus raw power and similar or greater position value.

Chicago White Sox

One thing to know: Cholowsky shows up as Noah Schultz graduates and Montgomery is almost there, too. RHP Joey Volchko (2026 third round) is a sleeper who could shoot onto this list with a handful of starts that look like his outing vs. Texas in Omaha.

Cincinnati Reds

One thing to know: No, having too many shortstop prospects is not a problem. I'll be interested to see the early pro performances of SS Dylan Bowen (2026 fifth round; do the tools show up in the stat line?), 1B/3B Mulivai Levu (second round; can he play third base?) and RHP Ty Horn (third round; in what role will he be developed?).

Cleveland Guardians

One thing to know: Travis Bazzana graduates to make room for Peterson, and Curley passes LaViolette, with RHP Daniel Espino, CF Kahlil Watson, and CF Aaron Walton lingering just behind.

Colorado Rockies

One thing to know: The farm is getting restocked with three draft picks in the top 40 all making this list, and players from the last regime on the list are all arrow-up this season; RHP Gabriel Hughes was the last cut.

Detroit Tigers

One thing to know: There hasn't been a huge breakout name here this year as we've seen in years past, but there's still a lot of talent. LHP Ben Jacobs and CF Cris Rodriguez were the last cuts.

Houston Astros

One thing to know: The Astros had the most draft capital they've had in recent memory and did well, with LHP Wes Mendes (2026 second round) and SS Keon Johnson (third round) both with the potential to jump on here before the winter.

Kansas City Royals

One thing to know: The Royals did well with their extra pick, adding three players to this list in the recent draft. Keep an eye on recent draftees LHP Maxx Yehl (third round; potential quick mover), CF Dominic Battista (fourth round; big tools but faced lower competition and battled hamate injury) and LHP Justin LeGuernic (sixth round; potential starter conversion with above-average stuff).

Los Angeles Angels

One thing to know: The Angels might be onto something. I loved the Grindlinger pick and what it signaled about being open to high-upside players in the first round while last year's overslot high school draftees are low-key cooking: Slawinski, Haley, and RHP C.J. Gray.

Los Angeles Dodgers

One thing to know: The Dodgers picked up one elite prospect in this year's draft, a clear first-round talent in sweet-swinging prep 3B Bo Lowrance, and he ended up 11th in a deep system. Same goes for last year's No. 40 pick in LHP Zach Root, who has performed well but got squeezed off the list. Sometimes life is unfair.

Miami Marlins

One thing to know: There is energy in Miami with the big league team on a roll and the Marlins got one of the best values in the 2026 first round by stepping up to take a shot on Lombard. Cannarella is red hot and solid prospects in RF Kemp Alderman and CF Fenwick Trimble got squeezed off the list, landing in a deep 11-20 part of their system.

Milwaukee Brewers

One thing to know: This has been one of the hardest lists to make each month because the Brewers have 12-15 prospects who deserve to be on here. 3B Andrew Fischer has hit 29 homers this year and was 11th, RHP Tyson Hardin would make almost every list, as would infield brothers and organization teammates Trey and Brady Ebel.

Minnesota Twins

One thing to know: Lots of near misses on this list, including RHP Charlee Soto, RF Gabriel Gonzalez, C Carson Tinney (2026 second-rounder), RHP Ethan Wachsmann (third round), RHP Brett Renfrow (second round), C Khadim Diaw, and RHP Ryan Gallagher.

New York Mets

One thing to know: The Mets have graduated a number of young players from their system in the past few years, so now they are building it up again. Their recent top two picks RHP Carson Wiggins and CF Aiden Robbins were the last cuts, just behind recent trade addition Mathis.

New York Yankees

One thing to know: After having a little trouble filling out this list early in the year, there are now a number of options who have emerged in addition to the recent draftees. Matic took the last spot on the list, CF Wilberson De Pena was right behind him and CF Jace Avina is doing it in Double-A, pushing the middling or injured prospect arms out of contention for the top 10.

Philadelphia Phillies

One thing to know: Renteria had a lot of hype before signing and he's delivering on that in the DSL while the back of the list has too many solid options, with 2B Aroon Escobar and recent second-rounder CF Caden Bogepohl just missing, and later draft picks RHP Ruger Riojas and RHP Deven Sheerin not far behind him.

Pittsburgh Pirates

One thing to know: Valdez is going off in the big leagues in a way that I wasn't expecting and he'll probably graduate by the next update; Sanford, Curiel and Gray can fill in behind him. C Rafael Flores Jr. was a late cut and 2026 second-rounder SS Aiden Ruiz wasn't far behind him.

San Diego Padres

One thing to know: The Padres are rebuilding the system by simply not trading the players from the past few drafts and international classes, and now there's some tough calls on who makes the list. SS Joniel Hernandez was the last cut (tearing up the DSL with solid reports), RHP Ryan Lynch (2026 third round), and C Robbie Lavey (fourth round) were the toughest cuts.

San Francisco Giants

One thing to know: Hernandez joins Level and Gonzalez as the recent hits on infielders in the international market as Bryce Eldridge's graduation makes room in the top three. The back of the list was competitive, with RHP Kaden Waechter (2026 second-rounder) just missing the cut, along with 3B Parks Harber, CF Trevor Cohen and CF Dakota Jordan.

Seattle Mariners

One thing to know: SS Colt Emerson graduated and the two top recent draftees pushed CF Yorger Bautista off the list, with rising LHP Mason Peters also in the mix for the last spot.

St. Louis Cardinals

One thing to know: I raved about the Cardinals' draft and now they've remade the back of the list, with some real upward mobility if things break how I'm expecting. RF Andrew Williamson (second round) and RF Caden Ferraro (third round) were late cuts along with CF Tai Peete, LHP Quinn Matthews, and SS Sebastian Dos Santos, among others.

Tampa Bay Rays

One thing to know: Emerson and Gillen make one of the best prospect duos in the minors while a number of arrow-up position players (Flewelling, Bodine, Fleming, Gray, Pierce) are eating up space that was for RHP Michael Forret and RHP Anderson Brito earlier in the season. Recent draftees 3B Taj Marchand and RHP Ben Blair are also in that conversation.

Texas Rangers

One thing to know: This list was incredibly hard to work out after Walcott. Scarborough's velocity is down a bit and many of the names toward the bottom of the list are arrow-up this year, with some draftees in the mix. 3B Connor Comeau lost the coin flip of a back-to-back draft ranking with Bumila, who I believe will end up getting a higher bonus, too. LHP Dalton Pence, CF Dylan Dreiling and RHP Jose Corniell were also in that mix.

Toronto Blue Jays

One thing to know: SS Juan Sanchez slid due to performance this year, but I think he's still a prospect. Carlon and Brick are the clear headliners of a solid 2026 draft crop and are also joined by the two biggest bonuses from last year's class (Parker, Bullard).

Washington Nationals

One thing to know: The new regime has continued adding to the system while also staying competitive in the big leagues. RHP Miguel Sime Jr. has some of the best stuff in the minors league, he just needs to get in the strike zone more often. SS Ronny Cruz was edged off by new draftees, but a few more (CF Chase Brunson, SS Luke Williams, RHP Cooper Harris) couldn't make it on this time. LHP Jackson Kent is also in the mix; if Ford doesn't regain his 2025 form, he'll fall off the list.
