1. Jacob Misiorowski – SP/RP, Brewers – MLB
Since debuting June 12, Misiorowski has delivered three consecutive wins with a 1.13 ERA, 19 strikeouts, and a stingy 0.63 WHIP across 16 innings. He recorded career highs this month, throwing 12 pitches over 100 mph in a single inning and battling Paul Skenes in a standout outing with eight Ks, two hits and no runs allowed over five innings. Now suddenly a favorite for NL Rookie of the Year, he’s established himself as one of the game’s most electrifying early-season stories.
2. Max Anderson – 2B, Tigers – Double‑
Anderson has elevated his performance in June, posting his third four-hit game of the season on June 24 and lifting his average to .352 with 11 homers and 49 RBIs over 250 at‑bats. Scouts are raving about his advanced contact skills and bat speed, recently naming him Eastern League Player of the Month. With his consistent hitting, a late-2025 debut is now within reach.
3. Brennen Davis – OF, Yankees – Triple‑A
Yes, that one. After years of injuries and inconsistency, Davis has found new life in the Yankees’ system. He’s crushing Triple-A pitching, walking more than ever and slugging near .500. With the Yankees dealing with outfield injuries, Davis could be back in the Bronx soon—this time to stay.
4. Stharlin Torres – SP, Reds – Rookie
Torres is the latest under-the-radar Latin American arm making a name early in the Arizona Complex League. He’s flashing mid-90s heat, a hammer curve, and feel for a changeup—all at age 18. The Reds are already grooming him as a fast-track arm for the 2027 rotation. Though he’s currently working back from injury, bullpen sessions show he’s progressing quickly.
5. Jonah Tong – SP/RP, Mets – Double‑A
The Canadian right-hander has become must-watch every time he takes the hill. Tong flirted with perfection earlier this month and now boasts one of the best K/BB ratios in the minors. Whether as a future mid-rotation arm or high-leverage reliever, he’s forcing his way into New York’s 2025 plans.
6. Zach Ehrhard – OF, Red Sox – Double-A
Ehrhard’s rise has been one of the season’s quiet surprises. A high-contact righty with sneaky power and plus speed, he’s been tearing up the Eastern League with a .310 average and consistent hard contact. If his bat keeps trending upward, he could be Boston’s outfield sleeper.
7. Jakob Marsee – OF, Marlins – Triple‑A
Recently acquired in a trade, Marsee’s profile is tailor-made for Miami: contact skills, plus speed, and defensive versatility. Since the move, he’s flourished in Triple-A Jacksonville, posting a near .400 OBP and swiping bases at will. A second-half MLB debut looks likely.
8. Joshua Baez – OF, Cardinals – Double‑A
Baez has finally turned his loud tools into consistent production. After a sluggish 2023 and an injury-hampered 2024, he’s mashing in Double-A Springfield, showing improved plate discipline while maintaining his plus raw power. If he keeps this up, a Triple-A call-up is on the horizon.
9. Brandon Walter – LHP, Astros – MLB
Once overlooked in a deep Astros system, Walter has quietly carved out a high-leverage bullpen role in Houston. The 28-year-old has found his groove in 2025, limiting walks and neutralizing lefties with a devastating changeup. His late-blooming breakout is earning attention—and innings.
10. Chase Burns – SP, Reds – MLB
One of the most electric arms from the 2023 draft class has already arrived in Cincinnati. Burns debuted with five strikeouts over four innings, flashing a triple-digit fastball and wipeout slider. While still refining his command, his pure stuff gives him immediate swing-and-miss potential and long-term rotation upside.
