Colorado Rockies catching prospect Cole Carrigg has begun to snap his power skid. Over his previous two contests, Carrigg has launched three long balls. On Sunday, he went deep twice. However, prior to this two-game surge, Carrigg did not go deep for seven games. Through the first 28 games of the Double-A campaign, the No. 3-ranked prospect in the system and held a 282/.388/.563 slash line with four doubles, two triples, and seven home runs. Carrigg has swiped nine bags and held a 33:14 K:BB. Last season, the backstop spent most of his season with High-A, where he held a .280/.358/.475 line with 16 doubles and 16 home runs across 111 contests. Given his steady progression at Double-A, the San Diego State product could be in the mix to reach Triple-A later this summer.

Toronto Blue Jays right-handed pitching prospect Juaron Watts-Brown allowed just two hits across six shutout frames on Sunday. In this outing, Watts-Brown struck out 10 batters. This was the third time this season that Watts-Brown hit double-digit strikeouts in a start. In addition, this was also a nice bounce-back outing for Watts-Brown as he allowed a season-high five runs in his last start on May 6 against High-A Spokane. Through 32 1/3 innings at High-A, Watts-Brown has struggled at times as he holds a 3.90 ERA with a 1.24 WHIP. However, he has flashed elite strikeout upside, tallying 54 over this stretch. Last summer, during his first 45 1/3 innings at High-A, Watts-Brown struck out 57 batters but held a higher 6.35 ERA. Given his lack of consistency, the 23-year-old will likely remain at High-A throughout most of the first half.

Chicago Cubs infield prospect Jefferson Rojas went 3-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI during their contest against High-A Fort Wayne. Rojas has enjoyed an impressive surge at the plate at High-A. Over his last 11 contests, the 20-year-old has posted a stellar .405/.458/.762 slash line with one double, one triple, four long balls, five stolen bases, and 15 RBI. Prior to this stretch, the No. 7-ranked prospect in the system held a modest .184/.311/.237 line through the first 10 games of the High-A regular season. Rojas spent most of the 2024 campaign with High-A South Bend and has continued to show growth through the opening month of the season. If Rojas continues to swing a hot bat, he should be in the mix to reach Double-A in the coming weeks.

Athletics right-handed pitching prospect Luis Morales enjoyed his best start of the campaign, logging seven innings of one-run ball against Double-A Corpus Christi. In this outing, Morales allowed just two hits and struck out a season-high 11 batters. He served up just one walk. Through his first 36 1/3 innings of work at the Double-A level, the No. 4-ranked prospect in the system has posted a strong 2.97 ERA with a stellar 0.99 WHIP. He has struck out 45 batters and served up 14 free passes. Last season, the 22-year-old spent his campaign at the High-A level, where he logged 81 innings to the tune of a 4.22 ERA with a 1.32 WHIP. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression as it appears Morales could be in the mix to reach Triple-A later this season.


Pittsburgh Pirates right-handed pitching prospect Mike Burrows struck out a season-high 11 batters across four 2/3 innings of work during his start against Triple-A Columbus on Sunday. Burrows did not allow a run. He served up two walks and allowed four hits. The 25-year-old was promoted to the major leagues earlier this summer but was not given an opportunity to pitch. In 2024, Burrows made his MLB debut and logged just three 1/3 innings to the tune of a 2.70 ERA. Through 27 1/3 innings of work at Triple-A Indianapolis this season, Burrows has posted a solid 2.63 ERA with a 1.06 WHIP. Across this stint, he struck out 36 batters and served 10 walks. Given his steady performance at Triple-A, he should be in the mix to re-join Pittsburgh later this summer.
