Top draftees, prospects begin short-season play

June 14th, 2019

Three of Minor League Baseball's short-season leagues get underway tonight, which means it's an Opening Day of sorts for many younger prospects as they start their 2019 campaigns. Among them are several players who were just selected in last week's Draft and will be making their professional debuts.

Here's a look at each team's Top 30 prospects and picks from the top 10 rounds of this year's Draft who have been assigned to teams in the three leagues that kick off tonight (New York-Penn, Northwest and Pioneer), the Dominican Summer League, which started on June 1, or one of the circuits that will begin within then next 10 days -- the Appalachian, Gulf Coast and Arizona Summer leagues.
