    Theo Gillen went 1-for-3 with an RBI on Sunday in the All-Star Futures Game at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia.

    Gillen brought home the go-ahead run with a fifth-inning single to left field that brought Nelson Rada around from second base. He struck out swinging on a nasty changeup from flame-thrower Miguel Sime Jr. in the seventh. The 20-year-old former first-round pick from the 2024 MLB Draft has made the leap to elite fantasy prospect this season with a robust .310/.415/.516 slash line with 12 homers and 32 thefts in 330 plate appearances through 71 games.

    The 2024 first-round pick hit five home runs in 81 minor league games last season, so him already being at five home runs in 10 games in 2026 is certainly noteworthy. That’s despite the fact that his fly ball rate at High-A is 10 percent lower than it was in A-ball last season. It’s early days, but if Gillen keeps this up, the 20-year-old could be in Double-A by the summer.
  • TB Outfield
    Gillen winds up receiving a full-slot deal of $4.372 million from the Rays as the 17th overall selection in the 2024 MLB Draft. The 18-year-old prep outfielder is coming off a handful of injuries, which likely caused him to slip in the draft, but there are enough offensive tools here for fantasy managers to dream on.
  • Gillen is one of the top prep bats in the class and offers a considerable amount of fantasy upside. The 6-foot-2 infielder has dealt with injuries as a prep with a torn labrum and knee injury, but when healthy he shows the ability to make consistent hard contact with a frame that suggests he’ll be able to hit for power at the highest level. His lack of arm strength may move him to center field or second base, but the bat can certainly play there. Gillen will need time as all prep hitters do, but the reward has a chance to be well worth the wait.

    Braves optioned OF Brewer Hicklen to Triple-A Gwinnett.

    The 30-year-old went 7-for-19 in eight games for the Braves. He will return to Triple-A, where he will resume his role as organizational depth.

    Braves activated OF Ronald Acuña Jr. (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list.

    The 28-year-old has missed about six weeks with his second hamstring injury of the season. Atlanta was cautious with their star outfielder to ensure that he may have fully put the soft tissue injuries behind him. Acuña Jr. should find himself back in the lineup on Monday against the Mets.

    DL Hall (left pectoral strain) threw two scoreless innings for Triple-A Nashville on Sunday.

    Hall has been out since June 4 with a pec strain. The left-hander walked two and struck out two in this outing, while not allowing a hit. Still, he threw just 13 of his 29 pitches for strikes, so the Brewers will want to see that command click into place a bit more before they think about bringing him off the injured list.

    Giants 3B prospect Parks Harber went 4-for-5 with a double, one RBI, and two runs scored for Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday.

    The 24-year-old is now 17-for-41 (.415) in nine games at Triple-A with one home run, 10 RBI, one steal, and an 11/3 K/BB ratio. If the Giants were able to trade Matt Chapman at the deadline, there is a chance that Harber, should he keep this up, could see some MLB at-bats over the final month of the season.

    Twins SS prospect Kaelen Culpepper went 1-for-3 with a double and two runs scored for Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday.

    Culpepper had missed almost a month after being hit by a pitch on the hand and then suffering a glute injury shortly after. However, he returned over the weekend and played three games for St. Paul. He is still not regualrly playing shortstop for full games, so that will be the next step, but the 23-year-old remains likely to get a call to the big leagues shortly after the August 14 deadline to keep his rookie eligibility for 2027.

    Cardinals OF prospect Joshua Báez went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run, and two RBI for Triple-A Memphis on Sunday.

    The 23-year-old now has 31 home runs and 77 RBI on the season. Yes, he’s hitting .244, and there is some swing-and-miss that will likely always be a part of his game, but he still has an .883 OPS on the year and has perhaps the best power/speed combination in the upper minors. It would make sense for the Cardinals to find a spot in the lineup for him, but it may not happen until after August 14, when they can retain his rookie eligibility for 2027.

    Kristian Campbell went 2-for-3 with two doubles and an RBI for Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.

    It’s been a tough season for Campbell, as he tries to make adjustments to his swing. However, things have started to pick up in July, hitting .364/.509/.591 with two home runs, nine RBI, two steals, and a 12/11 K/BB ratio in 15 games. That’s obviously a small sample size, but Campbell is just 24 years old, so it’s too soon to close the book on his MLB future. If he can keep hitting like this to close the year, there’s a chance he’s back on the map for the Red Sox in 2027.

    Red Sox promoted RHP John Holobetz to Triple-A Worcester.

    Holobetz came to the Red Sox as part of the Quinn Priester trade in 2025. In his first full season with the organization, he’s posted a 4.33 ERA, 1.22 WHIP, and 93/25 K/BB ratio in 79 innings at Double-A. The 23-year-old has been heating up of late, with a 2.70 ERA and 0.90 WHIP over his last five starts. The right-hander has seen a huge jump in strikeouts with Boston, going from a 24 percent strikeout rate in 125 minor league innings last year to a 28.1 percent rate this season. He’s added velocity on his fastball and pairs that with a trio of solid but not elite secondary pitches. He has also shown plus control, which makes him a dark horse for innings in Boston’s rotation in 2027.

    Mets promoted LHP prospect Jonathan Santucci to Triple-A Syracuse.

    Santucci was the 47th overall pick in the 2024 MLB Draft. He’s been solid in Double-A this year, posting a 3.57 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, and 120/45 K/BB ratio in 90 2/3 innings. The left-hander has a fastball he can run up into the high-90s with a plus slider and a curveball that has taken a step forward for him this season. He’s emerging as a legitimate rotation candidate for 2027.

    Manuel Rodríguez (elbow) threw a scoreless inning for Single-A Charleston on Sunday.

    This was Rodríguez’s first appearance in affiliate ball since having Tommy John surgery in August of 2025. He started the game and didn’t allow a single baserunner while striking out one and throwing seven of his eight pitches for strikes. The 29-year-old will need a couple more weeks to build up his pitch count, but he could be an option in the Rays’ bullpen by the second half of August.
