    Brewers SS prospect Jesús Made went 3-for-5 with five RBI during Friday’s doubleheader for Double-A Biloxi.

    Made matched a season-high with four RBI in the opener of Friday’s twin bill, reaching base in three of his five plate appearances. He delivered a bases-loaded double to clear the bases as part of an eight-run second inning before adding another RBI single a couple frames later. He tacked on an additional run-scoring single in the nightcap before the game was suspended due to inclement weather. It felt fitting that only the elements could slow down baseball’s top prospect on one of the best nights of his career. Perhaps most encouraging, he showed no signs of rust in his return to Biloxi’s lineup after suffering a left quad contusion on a collision with teammate Josh Adamczeski earlier this week. The 19-year-old phenom remains on a rapid trajectory toward Milwaukee and could potentially arrive in the majors early next season.

    Made lifted an opposite-field single into shallow right field off Mariners southpaw Kade Anderson with two outs in the opening frame. He stepped to the plate with runners on the corners in the third inning but wound up grounding out harmlessly, although he did push the tying run across the plate with the 106.9-mph worm burner. The 19-year-old switch-hitting shortstop has continued his meteoric rise towards Milwaukee this season, slashing .276/.347/.442 with nine homers and 26 steals in 346 plate appearances over 76 games as one of the youngest players in Double-A.

    Universally regarded as baseball’s top prospect, Made notched his his second four-hit game of the season just a few hours after being named to the 2026 MLB All-Star Futures Game for the National League. He’s posted seven multi-hit performances in his last 13 games. It’s relatively easy to envision the 19-year-old phenom blossoming into a five-category fantasy force, as he’s slashing .289/.359/.448 with seven homers and 24 steals through 69 games this season despite being the youngest hitter at the Double-A level. Most of his over-the-fence power remains projection at this stage, but he’s already producing elite exit velocities for his age, bolstering confidence that more in-game power will emerge as he continues to mature physically.

    Made is the consensus top-overall prospect in baseball, according to MLB Pipeline. The 19-year-old prodigy is hitting .281/.355/.411 in 67 games at Double-A with seven home runs, 51 RBI, 51 runs scored, 23 steals, and a 46/31 K/BB ratio. He joins Nationals shortstop Eli Willits (third-overall prospect), Dodgers outfielder Josue De Paula (fourth-overall prospect), Pirates righty Seth Hernandez (sixth-overall prospect) as the clear headliners on the senior circuit squad. The 2026 MLB All-Star Future Game will take place Sunday, July 12 at Noon ET on NBC.

    Made, the consensus top prospect in baseball, appears to have avoided serious injury following a collision with teammate Josh Adamczewski. The 19-year-old prodigy is hitting .276/.349/.427 with six homers and 21 steals through 59 games as one of the youngest position players in the entire Southern League.

    Pump the brakes. There was rampant social media speculation that Made, the consensus top-overall prospect in baseball, was heading to Triple-A Nashville, but that doesn’t appear to be the case. The 19-year-old prodigy has put together a remarkable campaign, slashing .277/.353/.452 with six homers and 18 steals in 201 plate appearances over 42 games for Double-A Biloxi as the youngest hitter in the entire Southern League. He’s checked every conceivable box since making his stateside debut last year and his rapid trajectory towards Milwaukee puts him on pace to potentially reach the majors by the end of the year.
  • MIL Shortstop #91
    The top dynasty prospect left in the entire minors with Konnor Griffin reaching the big leagues earlier this month, Made is hitting .333 (15-for-45) with five extra-base hits and six steals through 11 games as the youngest hitter in the entire Southern League by nearly two years. The 18-year-old prodigy also has more walks (10) than strikeouts (nine) this season. He possesses the complete five-category fantasy monster starter kit and doesn’t seem to have any weaknesses at this stage of his development. It sounds hyperbolic, but he simply continues to exceed even the most wildly optimistic expectations as he rockets towards Milwaukee.
  • MIL Shortstop #91
    At just 18 years old, Made is the youngest position player at the Double-A level by a country mile. He’s doing much more than just holding his own against older competition, batting .375 (12-for-32) with one homer and three steals in seven games. His all-around offensive ability and athleticism make it easy to forecast an elite power-speed combination fantasy contributor if he comes remotely close to reaching his ceiling. There simply aren’t any weaknesses in his profile, and he continues rocketing towards Milwaukee at a rapid pace.
  • MIL Shortstop #91
    Made is one of the most compelling prospects in the fantasy landscape after last year’s remarkable stateside debut where he batted .285/.379/.413 with six homers and 47 thefts in 115 games across three levels to finish the year as one of the youngest hitters in Double-A. The 18-year-old prodigy’s two hits carried exit velocities of 98 and 100.8 mph, respectively, showcasing his ability to generate consistent hard contact despite his 5-foot-8 frame. He has a chance to be a franchise-altering talent for Milwaukee and projects as an extremely impactful all-around fantasy contributor down the road.
  • MIL Shortstop #91
    The Shuckers are going to the playoffs, so he’ll get to participate in those, too. The 18-year-old Made, considering one of the game’s very best prospects, hit .343/.415/.500 in 27 games with High-A Wisconsin after coming in at .267/.373/.388 in 82 games in Low-A.
  • MIL Shortstop #91
    Made is on track to finish the season alongside Pirates sensation Konnor Griffin as the top prospects in the dynasty landscape. The 18-year-old prodigy has somehow managed to outperform expectations this season in his stateside debut, slashing .267/.373/.388 with four homers and 40 steals in 83 games for Low-A Carolina. He’s flashed top-of-the-scale exit velocities relative to his age and level and should continue adding over-the-fence-pop as he matures. It’s easy to envision Made blossoming into a five-category impact fantasy contributor in a couple years, if not sooner.

    Riley O’Brien was unavailable Sunday against the Reds because of an illness.

    The Cardinals never had a late-inning lead in the 10-inning loss to the Reds, but it was surprising not to see O’Brien in the tie game at some point. As it turned out,there was a good reason. Consider him day-to-day.

    2026 second-round pick Logan Schmidt announced Sunday that he will not be signing with the Guardians.

    Interestingly, Schmidt did not mention his LSU commitment in his Instagram post announcing the decision, suggesting that he might be thinking about going to junior college and then reentering the draft next year. Schmidt, a left-handed pitcher, was viewed by many as a first-round talent before slipping to the 59th overall selection on draft day.

    Red Sox optioned INF Tsung-Che Cheng to Triple-A Worcester.

    Cheng goes to make room for Curtis Mead on the active roster. He hit .256/.318/.282 in 44 plate appearances while helping to fill in for Trevor Story and Marcelo Mayer. Andruw Monasterio will serve as Boston’s everyday shortstop for now. Romy Gonzalez is probably the backup, though he hasn’t played the position in two years. Ceddanne Rafaela would probably be the better option, in truth.

    Nathaniel Lowe went 3-for-5 and drove in two in the 10th in the Reds’ 5-3 victory over the Cardinals on Sunday.

    Sal Stewart singled in the go-ahead run in the 10th before Lowe broke it open, giving the Reds a 5-2 lead. The Cardinals then scored just the automatic runner in the bottom of the inning. Incredibly enough, it’s Lowe’s very first three-hit game of the year. He’s been pretty good in batting .258/.333/.475 in 249 plate appearances, and he’d seem to be a particularly likely candidate to be moved before next week’s trade deadline.

    Andrew Abbott pitched six innings of two-run ball Sunday in a no-decision against the Cardinals.

    He walked four but allowed just three hits. Abbott has three quality starts in his last four tries, but he’s now gone six straight starts without winning. One imagines there will be more of that in August and September if the Reds sell prior to the deadline. He’ll face the Pirates next.

    Julian Garcia notched his first career save after allowing only the automatic runner to score in the 10th Sunday against the Cardinals.

    Working with a three-run lead, Garcia gave up back-to-back singles with one out but then retired Masyn Winn and José Fermín to end the game. Garcia, a 31-year-old rookie, has a 2.93 ERA in 15 1/3 innings since being called up last month. He could be part of a committee situation in the ninth if the Reds trade closer Emilio Pagán before the deadline.

    Kyle Leahy fanned a career-high nine while allowing two runs in six innings Sunday against the Reds.

    The runs came on homers from Elly De La Cruz and Ke’Bryan Hayes. It’s actually as many runs as Leahy had allowed in his last five starts combined. Leahy’s previous high for strikeouts was eight, which was also against the Reds back in May. He’ll pitch in Toronto next weekend.

    Ke’Bryan Hayes homered and walked before being lifted for a pinch-hitter Sunday against the Cardinals.

    Sal Stewart hit for Hayes in the 10th and came through with an RBI single. Hayes’ homer was his third of the season and first since he came off the injured list. He’s 4-for-21 with just the one extra-base hit since being activated July 10.

    Alec Burleson went 3-for-5 with a double and an RBI against the Reds on Sunday.

    Burleson’s double to right center in the second was hit 388 feet and would have been a homer in 16 ballparks, according to Statcast. Burleson has collected three hits in five of his last eight games, though, oddly, he has zero hits in the other three. He’s eighth in the majors with 116 hits, tied for fourth with 26 doubles and tied for sixth with 71 RBI.

    Lars Nootbaar came off the bench Sunday to go 0-for-1 with a walk against the Reds.

    Nootbaar didn’t start after leaving Saturday’s game due to dehydration and lightheadedness, but that was probably at least partly due to a left-hander being on the mound for the Reds. Nootbaar entered as a pinch-hitter in the seventh and stayed in to play three innings in left field.
