Future Dodger or trade chip Alec Verdugo with a highlight throw
Great throws send chills down my spine, and this throw by Alex Verdugo was no exception. I mean come on, the runner is on 2nd, the ball is hit to deep right center, Verdugo cuts in front of the right fielder going away from the ball, and still makes a perfect throw to 3rd. The …
Brock Stewart fans 10 in AAA start
The fast rising Brock Stewart continues to dominant as he moves up the Dodger minor league chain. Stewart started the year in High A ball, was promoted quickly to AA, and has now made two starts in AAA. His first start was a success but today’s start was dominant with zero walks, and ten strikeouts. …
Dodgers have nine prospects on Rotowire updated top 200

AA Southern League home run hitter Scott Schebler and major league 3rd baseman Jake Lamb have something in common
Yesterday Scott Schebler hit his 25th home run which leads the Southern League thanks to Kris Bryant being promoted to AAA many weeks ago. Schebler is still going relatively unnoticed among the prospect intelligentsia, but the rotisserie world is taking notice. Jesse Siegel the Rotowire minor league columnist commented on Schebler this weekend during his …
Jose De Leon, 21 year old 2012 24th round draft pick makes the Baseball America Hot Sheet
