The next wave of baseball talent is on display this week in the MLB Spring Breakout games.
For the third consecutive spring, teams of top prospects from each MLB organization will face off against one another in a series of exhibitions showcasing the game's rising stars. Every team will participate, with the Brewers — who boast the top farm system in the game according to MLB Pipeline — and Phillies playing in two games apiece.
Friday's Pirates-Tigers matchup stands above the rest, with MLB Pipeline's top two prospects facing off as shortstops Konnor Griffin of the Pirates and Kevin McGonigle of the Tigers share the field. Two more elite players could join them, as Tigers outfielder Max Clark sits at No. 10 in the rankings and Pirates right-hander Bubba Chandler is No. 11.
Close behind is Brewers vs. Athletics on Sunday, which could feature two more stellar middle infielders in No. 3 prospect Jesus Made of the Brewers and No. 4 Leo De Vries of the A's.
Though the concept is new, the Spring Breakout series already has showcased the likes of Paul Skenes, Jackson Holliday, Roman Anthony and Trey Yesavage before they broke through in the majors. Who will stand out this year?
