Another “who?” entry in my pitching pantheon, but Wesneski won’t be unknown for very long. I expect him with the Yankees in late 2022. Who, indeed!

Jacob Lopez, LHP, TA
When prospect hounds look at new names, always in the back of our minds is the hope that we might find our Holy Grail. Let’s see how close Jacob Lopez comes to the mark.
Ian Seymour, LHP, Tam
Drafted in the lost year of 2020, the now 22-year-old Ian Seymour only has 2021 numbers for us to look at. How’s he doing? Hint: He’s a Rays prospect…
Jayden Murray, RHP, TAM
And just who is Jayden Murray? Glad you asked…
Justin Steele *, LHP, CHC
With word that the Cubs will be bring up Justin Steele to be part of a six-man rotation, let’s see who the Cubs have in this left-hander.
Xzavion Curry, RHP, CLE
After being drafted in 2019, and dealing with shoulder inflammation that year, and then a pandemic the next year, this is the first year we get to see Xzavion Curry in a professional setting. How’s that going? Glad you asked…
Zach McCambley, RHP, MIA
Another pop-up prospect, Zach McCambley has roared through the High-A Central league as if he were a man on a mission. What is his mission? Read on…
Matt Frisbee, RHP, SF
Another pop-up prospect, Matt Frisbee help throw a combined no hitter early in the season, and that got him some press. What can we tell of this hurler who is now 24 year old and has never been high on scout’s lists?
Braxton Ashcraft, RHP, PIT
It’s early in the minor league season, but the pop-up talents are already appearing. Let’s look at one such player in Pittsburgh right-hander Braxton Ashcraft down in High-A East Greensboro.
Clarke Schmidt, RHP, NYY
A Top-100 prospect has made it to majors in a strange 2020 season even though he has very little time at AA, but here is Clarke Schmidt. A top 100 guy for my 100th player profile!
John King *, RHP, TEX
Jumping all the way from High-A to the majors in this shortened season, let’s see how John King got to the Rangers.
Antonio Santos, RHP, COL
After never rising above Double-A, Antonio Santos has reached the big leagues this shortened season. In two games so far (as I write this), he has been hit hard. What do his minor league numbers tell us to expect in the future?
Keury Mella, RHP, ARI
Keury Mella has been getting a taste of the major leagues for the past four years. Now that he is up again, let’s get to know Mr. Mella.
Jackson Rutledge, LHP, WAS
Only drafted a year ago, Jackson Rutledge has made a good impression already.
Riley O’Brien, RHP, CIN
Hi, Reds fans! Ready to meet your newest organization pitcher?
Kyle Wright *, RHP, ATL
With over 40 innings pitched at the major league level, Kyle Wright is about to lose his rookie eligibility. Before that happens, let’s see how he got here.
Patrick Sandoval *, RHP, LAA
As we say goodbye to Patrick Sandoval’s rookie eligibility, let’s see how he got to the majors and what we can expect now that he’s here.
Adbert Alzolay *, RHP, CHC
In honor of Adbert Alzolay’s fine first start of 2020 for the Cubs, let’s see how he got here.
Johan Oviedo *, RHP, STL
Johan Oviedo got his first major league strikeout today in the first inning against Chicago. What can we glean from his minor league record to tell us how his major league career might go?
Tony Santillan, RHP, CIN
You thought 2020 was bad, meet Tony Santillan’s 2019…
Humberto Mejía, RHP, ARI
Not a top prospect, and has never pitched above High-A ball, but the Marlins (now with the Diamondbacks) need an arm, and here comes Humberto Mejía to start for them at least once.
Dustin May, RHP, LAD
In honor of his great start this year, let’s see where Dustin May came from. You don’t need me to tell you he was a great prospect, but I’m going to tell you that anyway.
Luis Patiño *, RHP, TAM
Luis is on the San Diego 60-man roster, so what do the Padres (now Rays) have in him?
Nate Pearson *, RHP, TOR
As Nate Pearson makes his big-league debut, what can we learn from his minor league performance?
Hunter Harvey *, RHP, BAL
A right elbow strain kept Hunter Harvey from being on the Orioles Opening Day roster, but he should be back soon. What can we expect from him?
