0


FV Rank Player Pos Age To From Trade 50 1 Agustin Ramirez C 22.9 MIA NYY Chisholm Offense-first catcher with huge rotational explosion and bat speed. Probably plays C/1B/DH mix. 50 2 Thayron Liranzo C 21.1 DET LAD Flaherty Switch-hitter with rare power regardless of position, but especially at catcher. Hit tool improvement becomes imperative if he can’t stick back there. 50 3 Dylan Lesko SP 20.9 TBR SDP J. Adam Has been super wild coming off TJ. Riding mid-90s heat and an elite changeup give him impact reliever floor even if things stay that way. 50 4 Jake Bloss SP 23.1 TOR HOU Kikuchi High-floored fourth starter on a competitive club. Plus slider and command, other stuff is average. 45+ 5 George Klassen SP 22.5 LAA PHI Estévez Once a hard-throwing sideshow with no control, Klassen has somewhat improved this while also adding a cutter to his upper-90s fastball and plus curve. 45+ 6 Brody Hopkins SP 22.5 TBR SEA Arozarena Hard-throwing low-slot converted outfielder who has gotten better very quickly in first year of pro ball. 45+ 7 Jared Serna 2B 22.2 MIA NYY Chisholm Super athletic little second baseman with surprising power for his size. Makes contact despite high-effort swing. Shot to be everyday second baseman; if not, he has an impact utility profile. 45 8 Trey Sweeney SS 24.3 DET LAD Flaherty Big-framed shortstop with starter-quality contact/power combo that plays down due to his downward swing path. 45 9 Samuel Aldegheri SP 22.9 LAA PHI Estévez Sneaky low-90s fastball with ride, plus slider, plus command. No. 4/5 starter look. 45 10 Nick Yorke 2B 22.3 PIT BOS Priester Below-average 2B/LF defender with strong hitting track record. Bizarre reverse splits, hits righties much better. Not quite a regular because of his defense. 45 11 Yujanyer Herrera SP 21.0 COL MIL Mears Big-framed almost-21-year-old righty with smooth delivery, plus command, plus slider and low-to-mid-90s fastball. No. 4/5 starter look. 40+ 12 José Tena 2B 23.4 WSN CLE L. Thomas Free-swinging infielder with power. Flashy but flawed defender. Probably gets 2B/3B reps soon. 40+ 13 Deyvison De Los Santos DH 21.1 MIA ARI Puk Stout slugger with plus-plus power, zero approach, and shaky defense. Volatile low-OBP type in the Maikel Franco mold. 40+ 14 Robby Snelling SP 20.6 MIA SDP T. Scott Ultra-competitive lefty who goes right at hitters with relatively vanilla stuff. 40+ 15 Jackson Baumeister SP 22.1 TBR BAL Eflin Amateur two-way prospect (catcher) who is still learning to pitch. Works in the low-to-mid-90s with life, has two good breaking balls. Sketchy delivery creates relief risk. 40+ 16 Mason Barnett SP 23.7 OAK KCR Erceg Burly mid-90s righty with above-average slider and curveball. Throws strikes despite long arm action, in the backend starter/swingman area but should thrive in one of those roles. 40+ 17 Ty Johnson SP 22.9 TBR CHC Paredes 6-foot-6 small school starter with burgeoning velocity and plus breaking ball. Has improved a lot during lone pro season. Rotation upside w/changeup growth. 40+ 18 Alex Clemmey SP 19.0 WSN CLE L. Thomas Lanky teenage lefty with mid-90s fastball and rapidly improving slider. Far from bigs but has realistic late-inning reliever outcome with time to develop into more. 40+ 19 Will Klein SIRP 24.7 OAK KCR Erceg Upper-90s reliever with a good curveball. Ready for big league innings right now. 40+ 20 Seth Johnson SP 25.9 PHI BAL G. Soto Mid-90s starter still building back from TJ. Pitch mix and command are more typical of a good reliever than a starter. He’s on the 40-man right now. 40+ 21 Adam Mazur SP 23.3 MIA SDP T. Scott Lanky rookie big league righty with mid-90s fastball that plays way down, especially in the zone. Best fit might be to pitch backwards in a long relief role. 40+ 22 Mac Horvath CF 23.0 TBR BAL Eflin Tried center field just before he was traded and looked pretty good. Valuable righty utility type with above-average power. 40+ 23 Cayden Wallace 3B 23.0 WSN KCR H. Harvey Multi-positional corner utilityman with roughly average contact and power. 40+ 24 Jeral Perez 2B 19.7 CHW LAD Edman/Fedde/Pham Young, power-hitting 2B/3B who has gotten stronger very quickly. Stiff defender, versatility unlikely, needs to mash so he can be an everyday second baseman. 40 25 Jonatan Clase CF 22.2 TOR SEA Y. García Speedy outfielder fairly new to switch-hitting. Raw defensive feel. Real tools and late breakout possibility. Don’t get fatigued here. 40 26 Gregory Barrios SS 20.3 TBR MIL Civale Slick-fielding shortstop with plus feel for contact. Very slight of build, utility type unless he gets stronger. 40 27 Graham Pauley 3B 23.9 MIA SDP T. Scott 2023 breakout guy who regressed in 2024. Lacks a position. Sweet lefty swing should enable him to be a part-time contributor anyway. 40 28 Connor Norby LF 24.1 MIA BAL T. Rogers Relatively bearish here. Below-average second base defender whose strikeouts have exploded. More a 1 WAR LF/DH type than a potential regular. 40 29 Eddinson Paulino 3B 22.1 TOR BOS Jansen Shot to be low-end third base regular with plus glove there. More likely part-time lefty infielder. 40 30 Sabin Ceballos 3B 22.0 SFG ATL Soler Contact and defense-oriented third baseman who lacks the power typical of third. 40 31 Cutter Coffey SS 20.2 TOR BOS Jansen Flashy but inconsistent defense. Low-end regular shortstop potential if he can stay there, Daniel Robertson comp if he can’t. 40 32 Aidan Smith CF 20.0 TBR SEA Arozarena Projectable center fielder with suspect hit tool. 40 33 Joseph Montalvo SP 22.2 DET TEX Chafin Small-ish low-90s righty starter with a good breaking ball. No. 5 starter look with upside if you’re keen to project based on his gorgeous delivery. 40 34 Kade Morris SP 22.1 OAK NYM Blackburn Breaking ball-centric backend starter type. 40 35 Jun-Seok Shim SP 20.2 MIA PIT B. De La Cruz Bigger-bodied guy injured for all of 2024 so far (shoulder). Sits 95 with carry and has a promising curveball. 40 36 Alexander Albertus 3B 19.8 CHW LAD Edman/Fedde/Pham Athletic infielder with contact and plate skills but not much power. Put on IL with tibia fracture shortly before the trade. 40 37 William Bergolla SS 19.8 CHW PHI T. Banks Has a Luis Guillorme look. Super skilled barrel control and defensive hands, below-average athlete. 40 38 Andrew Pintar CF 23.4 MIA ARI Puk Power/speed center fielder who is still learning the position. Has missed lots of time with injury. 40 39 Rafael Ramirez Jr. SS 19.0 WSN CLE L. Thomas Viable shortstop with average power and below-average hit tool. 40 40 International Pool Space $750k 2024 NYY HOU C. Ferguson This helps the Yankees get a little closer to front of the pack in terms of remaining 2024 bonus pool space, which means a better late-2024 shot at Rōki Sasaki depending on the timing of his posting. 40 41 Jack Neely SIRP 24.2 CHC NYY Leiter Neely is a pretty typical mid-90s fastball/plus slider middle reliever. 40 42 Hunter Bigge SIRP 26.1 TBR CHC Paredes Has dealt with injuries, wildness, and fluctuating velocity. Currently healthy and peaking, sitting in the upper-90s with a nasty low-90s cutter/slider. 40 43 Moisés Chace SP 21.1 PHI BAL G. Soto Stuff-over-control starter prospect with good secondaries and an uphill fastball. 40 44 Bradley Blalock MIRP 23.6 COL MIL Mears Vertical fastball reliever look, splitter and breaking ball pepper the top of the zone. 40 45 Patrick Reilly SP 22.8 BAL PIT B. Cook Fastball-heavy righty with a good cutter/slider. Probably a reliever, masquerading as a starter right now. 40 46 Eric Silva MIRP 21.8 DET SFG Canha Slider-heavy relief prospect, advanced command for his age. 40 47 Luis Peralta SIRP 23.6 COL PIT Beeks Standard middle inning lefty prospect with upshot fastball and plus slider. 40 48 Tyler Stuart SP 24.8 WSN NYM Winker Sixth starter type. Has backend elements but fastball traits cause it to play down. 35+ 49 Ovis Portes SIRP 19.7 CIN BOS L. Sims Very hard throwing young starter prospect with relief risk due to a lack of command. 35+ 50 Oliver Gonzalez SP 17.8 LAD STL Edman/Fedde/Pham Super projectable DSL pitcher with present below-average stuff. 35+ 51 Benjamin Cowles SS 24.5 CHC NYY Leiter Well built, versatile infielder with below-average hit and power tools. 35+ 52 Walter Pennington SIRP 26.3 TEX KCR Lorenzen Up/down reliever with an above-average slider. 35+ 53 Jarold Rosado SIRP 22.1 CHW KCR DeJong A hard-throwing young relief prospect with two future plus pitches. Rosado is sitting 94-97 and has a great two-planed curveball. 35+ 54 Thomas Balboni Jr. SIRP 24.1 NYY SDP Lockridge Balboni is a low-slot reliever with a good slider who has had a two-tick velo spike this season. 35+ 55 Liam Hicks C 25.2 DET TEX C. Kelly Hicks has great plate discipline and feel for airborne contact, but he lacks power and isn’t a good catcher. 35+ 56 Will Wagner 3B 26.0 TOR HOU Kikuchi Wagner can hit but lacks a position. 35+ 57 Josh Rivera SS 21.8 TOR CHC Pearson Rivera is a viable shortstop with a big time arm and a hit tool that’s lacking. 35+ 58 Homer Bush Jr. CF 22.8 TBR SDP J. Adam Bush is an elite runner with a big long-term defensive ceiling in center. His bat is light. 35+ 59 Yohendrick Pinango LF 22.2 TOR CHC Pearson Pinango is a spreadsheet darling with a more middling visual report. The stocky lefty-hitting left fielder has good power for his size, but his swing’s length is a concern. 35+ 60 Matthew Lugo LF 23.2 LAA BOS L. García Lugo has moved from shortstop to left field and improved his approach. He’s now a pull-power left fielder who fits toward the bottom of a 40-man. 35+ 61 Trey McGough SIRP 26.3 CHW BAL E. Jiménez McGough is a soft-tossing lefty reliever with a good slider. 35+ 62 Paul Gervase SIRP 24.2 TBR NYM T. Zuber A 6-foot-10 righty with a low slot. 91-94 mph fastball is a nightmare in on the hands of righties. 35+ 63 Wilfredo Lara 3B 20.3 MIA NYM Brazoban Versatile defender with power-over-hit offensive profile. Shot to be a utility guy. 35+ 64 Yeferson Vargas SIRP 20.0 LAA BOS L. García Undersized righty up to 98 with a promising breaking ball. Probable reliever. 35+ 65 J.D. Gonzalez C 18.8 TBR SDP J. Adam Sweet-swinging developmental catcher with raw all-around game. 35+ 66 Tyler Owens SIRP 23.6 DET TEX C. Kelly Fastball-heavy up/down reliever likely to debut within a year. 35+ 67 Ricky Vanasco SIRP 25.8 DET LAD Cash Oft-injured reliever with three plus pitches at peak. 35 68 Niko Kavadas 1B 25.8 LAA BOS L. García Husky 1B/DH with plus-plus power but 30-grade contact. 35 69 Andrés Chaparro 1B 25.8 WSN ARI Floro First baseman with fair contact/power blend, nice upper-level corner infield depth option. 35 70 Charles McAdoo 3B/OF 22.4 TOR PIT Kiner-Falefa Small-school power breakout guy with looming strikeout issues due to his bat path. 35 71 Garret Forrester C/3B 22.7 MIA PIT B. De La Cruz Oregon State stalwart who attempted catcher conversion during 2024 first half. Has played more third base lately. Well-rounded hitter, old for his level. 35 72 Jacob Bresnahan SP 19.1 SFG CLE Cobb Teenage lefty without huge projection. Great looking arm action, low-90s fastball but it rides, average slider. 35 73 Ronaldys Jimenez SP 18.7 PIT SDP M. Pérez DSL lefty up to 95, has a projectable frame and slider. 35 74 Nicolas Carreno SP 18.1 NYM PIT J. Walker Carreno is a walk-prone, lightning-armed little DSL lefty who is sitting 95 and has a potentially good slider. 35 75 Michael Flynn SIRP 28.0 TBR LAD Rosario Lower-slot sinker/slider/cutter reliever with low-leverage upside. 35 76 Brandon Lockridge CF 27.4 SDP NYY Enyel/Balboni A 27-year-old depth center fielder with a plus glove and speed. 35 77 Billy Cook 2B/OF 25.6 PIT BAL P. Reilly Older 2B/OF with above-average power and 2024 K% improvement. 35 78 Kelly Austin SIRP 23.6 NYY HOU C. Ferguson Low-90s fastball with natural cut and carry. Good breaking stuff. Like a softer-tossing Bryan Shaw. 35 79 Chase Lee SIRP 26.0 DET TEX Chafin Low-slot righty with a good slider. Righty specialist look. 35 80 Will Schomberg SP 23.5 MIA SEA Chargois An undrafted free agent out of Davidson with elite breaking ball spin. Sits 91-93, throws a lot of cutters and curveballs. 35 81 Matthew Etzel OF 22.3 TBR BAL Eflin Upper-level performer with smaller frame and modest tools. Good upper-level depth type. 35 82 Rhylan Thomas OF 24.3 SEA NYM Stanek Contact-only corner outfielder. Upper-level depth. 35 83 Jacob Sharp C 22.9 TOR SEA Y. García Athletic little catcher with plus contact rates. 35 84 Jared Dickey OF 22.4 OAK KCR Erceg Corner outfielder with solid bat-to-ball skills, less power than a typical LF/RF. 35 85 Ryan Zeferjahn SIRP 26.4 LAA BOS L. García Up/down reliever with upper-90s fastball that lacks movement. 35 86 RJ Schreck OF 24.1 TOR SEA J. Turner Old-for-level A-ball performer. Contact-driven corner outfielder without power. 35 87 Jay Harry UTIL 22.0 TOR MIN T. Richards Lefty-hitting multi-positional player with pull-oriented approach. Physical tools are pretty light. 35 88 Jay Beshears MIF 22.2 MIA SDP T. Scott Lacks arm for shortstop. Swings hard and is making above-average contact this year but, to the eye, it isn’t sustainable. 35 89 Gilberto Batista SP 19.6 TOR BOS Jansen Sinker/slider teenager who sits 91-93; his breaking ball ranges from 82-90 mph. 35 90 Abrahan Ramirez 2B/3B 19.8 MIA NYY Chisholm Compact contact-oriented 2B/3B currently on the complex. 35 91 Moises Bolivar 3B 17.1 LAD BOS Paxton A power-hitting flier from the DSL who needs to work on his throwing accuracy and plate discipline. 35 92 Andruw Salcedo C 21.8 SEA CIN France Husky switch-hitting catcher who hasn’t played very much across four pro seasons.
