Baseball America’s Hot Sheet ranks the 20 hottest prospects from the previous week. This week’s installment considers how minor league players performed through Aug 3. Contributing this week were BA staffers J.J. Cooper, Josh Norris, Geoff Pontes and Jesús Cano.
The Hot Sheet simply recognizes how the hottest prospects in the minors did in the past week—it’s not a re-ranking of the Baseball America Top 100 Prospects.
We host our weekly Hot Sheet Show on YouTube at 3:30 p.m. ET on Mondays. We’ll also be answering prospect questions in our weekly Hot Sheet chat on Tuesdays at 2 p.m. ET.
The Scoop: The Password had a signature week haunting Triple-A Lehigh Valley’s pitching staff. He crushed eight extra-base hits and opened the series by going 3-for-5 with a double, a home run, five RBIs and seven total bases. Over the final four games, Garcia went 7-for-14 with 19 total bases, three doubles and three home runs. He has also homered in three consecutive games. Garcia is handling Triple-A pitching with little problem, hitting .305/.375/.587 with 15 home runs across 54 games. (GP)
The Scoop: Amazing what a clean bill of health can do for a player, isn’t it? Jenkins’ career has been marred by a series of injuries that have limited him to just 45 games this season and 153 since turning pro in 2023. Even so, he’s proving more than capable at Double-A as a 20-year-old. This week in particular served as a demonstration of his skills. The three home runs not only upped his season total to five, they also stand as 20% of his career total. (JN)
The Scoop: Ortiz’s development has somewhat stalled. He had a great year in 2023, hitting .294/.371/.619 between Down East and Hickory, but he’s effectively had the same season two years in a row at Double-A Frisco. Ortiz is showing power (16 home runs in 89 games), but as a first baseman without much defensive versatility, he needs a lot more weeks like this one. (JJ)
The Scoop: So far as a professional, Echavarria’s results haven’t quite matched the hefty $3 million signing bonus the A’s gave him in the third round of the 2023 draft. His performance this week, however, is a step in the right direction. Echavarria sat in the mid 90s and touched 98 mph, pairing his fastball with a firmer mid-80s slider that flashed plus potential. The shape of his breaking ball has improved this year. Command remains a concern, as he often fell behind and struggled to locate his fastball. Still, his loose, athletic delivery and projectable frame give the A’s hope he’ll throw enough strikes to succeed. (JC)
The Scoop: When it comes to home runs, Benge has been on a bit of a binge. Since moving to Double-A on June 24, the former Oklahoma State star has been positively molten. This past week was no exception. He crushed three more home runs, bringing his Double-A total to eight in 26 games. That mark is twice the amount he hit in 86 games with High-A Brooklyn. The power boost hasn’t come at the expense of contact, either, considering he racked up more walks (16) than strikeouts (14) in his time with the Rumble Ponies. (JN)
Why He’s Here: 0-1, 2.08, 13 IP, 12 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 11 SO, 0 HR
The Scoop: Aldegheri has seen big league time in each of the past two seasons, but he’s looked more at home while getting more seasoning in Double-A. All of his minor league work this year has come in the Southern League, where he’s struggled with command and control. This past week offered a glimpse of him turning things in the right direction. In two starts against Birmingham, the lefthander issued just one walk in 13 innings and put together just the second and third outings of his season with one or fewer free passes. His Sunday start was also his second of the year that saw him complete seven innings. (JN)
The Scoop: A fourth-round pick in 2023, Pinckney reached Triple-A by the end of his first full professional season and returned to Rochester to open 2025. Through 93 games, he’s slashing a suboptimal .243/.324/.405 line on the surface, but he’s one of just six minor league hitters with 15+ home runs and 25+ stolen bases. Last week, he flashed his power-speed combo with home runs in four of six games and three or more total bases in five of six. Pinckney boasts plus power (116.6 mph max exit velocity in 2025) and speed, but a passive approach and below-average bat-to-ball skills contribute to a high strikeout rate. He has the tools to contribute as a role player on a contender, though swing-and-miss issues may limit his ceiling as an everyday regular. (GP)
The Scoop: Beavers has a strong case as the International League’s best hitter this season. He has hit .302/.418/.498 with 14 home runs and 22 stolen bases, backed by an impressive combination of elite on-base skills (16.1% walk rate) and bat-to-ball ability (6.9% swinging strike rate). Beavers extended his on-base streak to 16 games last week, punctuated by a 3-for-5 performance on Sunday with two home runs, three RBIs and nine total bases. Beavers’ collection of skills should position him for big league success, and he could even earn a late-season audition this year. If not, he has a shot to compete for a job out of camp next spring. (GP)
Why He’s Here: 0-0, 0.00, 7 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 10 SO, 0 HR
The Scoop: The Rays’ No. 5 prospect has been excellent this season with Double-A Montgomery and might have pitched his best game of the season on Friday. Hopkins spun seven scoreless innings, striking out 10 while allowing three hits and two walks. Over the course of the outing, Hopkins generated 17 swinging strikes as his mid-90s fastball and trio of secondaries ate all night long. Hopkins is a prospect with a green up arrow as we head into the closing weeks of the 2025 season. There’s an outside chance he debuts with the Rays in the first half of 2026. (GP)
The Scoop: Even before he’s reached the big leagues, Eldridge has proved his power will play at a big league park. The future San Francisco slugger swatted three more longballs this past week, bringing his ledger on the season to 10 in 31 games in the Pacific Coast League since moving up from Double-A. Between both levels, Eldridge has 17 home runs in 67 games after his season was delayed by a minor injury late in spring training. It shouldn’t be long before some of his blasts find a landing spot in McCovey Cove. (JN)
The Scoop: In his second season in the Dominican Summer League, Cova is cooking. The 18-year-old outfielder—one of the jewels of Miami’s 2024 international signing class—has been piping hot all season, adding a bit of offensive balance to a Marlins group bursting with promising pitchers. He clubbed two more home runs this past week, upping his season total to eight. He has 20 extra-base hits this season, seven more than he accumulated in his pro debut last year. He should be appointment viewing next year in the Florida Complex League. (JN)
The Scoop: Mack had an exceptional April, but has since been relatively quiet. Even this week, his success was extremely concentrated. He went 3-for-5 with a home run on Tuesday and he went 4-for-4 with another home run on Friday. Otherwise he was hitless. Mack’s offense overall has been solid, but when you combine it with his defense, he remains one of the game’s better catching prospects. (JJ)
The Scoop: The Davalillos are a very successful baseball family. Vic Davalillo remains the patriarch and most successful member of the family, but he has a pair of grandsons in David and Gabriel who are both solid prospects. Gabriel was considered the gem of the Angels’ international class this year, and he’s lived up to expectations in the early going. He’s hitting .314/.415/.554 in his very young pro career. (JJ)
The Scoop: Stewart has become a near-weekly fixture on the Hot Sheet. After dominating at the Double-A level, he earned a well-deserved promotion to Triple-A, where he hasn’t missed a beat. His approach has remained mature and disciplined, allowing him to make a smooth transition against more advanced pitching. Stewart continues to demonstrate a balanced offensive profile—combining a keen eye at the plate with solid contact skills and emerging power. (JC)
The Scoop: Few prospects have climbed the Rockies’ system as rapidly or impressively as Thomas. A second-round pick in last year’s draft, he quickly made his presence felt with a combination of advanced bat-to-ball skills and impactful power at the point of contact. While his approach leans aggressive, Thomas pairs it with solid pitch recognition and a knack for consistently squaring up the ball, projecting average game power as he continues to develop. (JC)
The Scoop: Adamczewski was overshadowed on a roster that featured standout talents like Jesús Made and Luis Peña—at least until their recent promotions. But make no mistake: the second baseman has quietly established himself as a steady, reliable presence. He brings a short, efficient swing paired with advanced timing and feel for the barrel, allowing him to drive the ball to all fields with ease. His offensive profile leans heavily on contact, though there’s enough strength and bat speed to project 10-15 home runs, with the occasional uptick. (JC)
Why He’s Here: 1-0, 2.70, 1 GS, 6.2 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 9 SO
The Scoop: Mathews’ velocity hasn’t returned to pre-injury levels—he’s sitting about two mph lower than last season—but he’s figuring out ways to make it work. Mathews relied on his slider almost as much as his four-seamer in his start this week. He mixed five pitches well, and generated nine swings and misses off his changeup. Ideally, Mathews will eventually be able to blend this savvy with the stuff he showed last year, but he’s been able to get batters out consistently over the past two months. (JJ)
The Scoop: Sproat will hate that July is over. He was 2-0, 0.67 last month, which included an 18-inning scoreless streak at one point, and he allowed his only two earned runs in a July 25 start against Omaha. Sproat was really cooking with gas this week. He touched 100 mph for the fourth time this season. Almost everything Sproat throws is hard, but his mid-80s sweeper does provide a different look. (JJ)
The Scoop: Since his promotion to Double-A in early July, Clark has been excellent, slashing .323/.400/.569 over 16 games. Last week, he reached base at least twice in all five games he played. Clark didn’t homer this week but he did collect three doubles and a triple. Clark has a prototypical leadoff profile with excellent bat-to-ball skills, elite approach, speed and enough power to hit 15 or so homers a year. He could one day blossom into one of the best leadoff hitters in baseball. (GP)
The Scoop: One of the top bats in the ACL this season, Morales earned a promotion to Low-A alongside a wave of rising Dodgers prospects. This week, he offered another glimpse of his considerable ceiling. He has altered his approach to become more aggressive early in counts and hunt fastballs, which has allowed him to tap into his raw power more consistently. While swing-and-miss remains part of his game and he’s firmly a power-over-hit profile, the offensive upside is undeniable. Continued refinement to his approach could help Morales evolve into a true impact bat. (JC)

Alexander Garcia, RHP, Guardians
Garcia signed with Cleveland out of Venezuela in 2024 and put forth a ho-hum pro debut in the Dominican Summer League. He returned to the level in 2025 and has been one of the best pitchers on the Guardians’ two DSL clubs. He got a chance to showcase his talent in the DSL all-star game and didn’t disappoint. In the league’s midsummer classic, Garcia showed a lively fastball up to 96 mph and complemented it with a sweeping breaking ball and a hard-dropping changeup. Together, the repertoire has helped Garcia strike out 38 hitters in 34.2 innings. (JN)
One of the hardest accomplishments to secure in sports is to leave while at the mountaintop. Following James Wood volleyball’s championship season, that’s exactly what head coach Adrienne Patrick is doing.
In her final season before transitioning to her new role as an assistant principal at Millbrook, Patrick led the Colonels to their fourth straight state championship, while also guiding them to a program-record 30 wins. As a result, she is The Winchester Star Volleyball Coach of the Year for the third time in four years.
Patrick ended her six-year tenure as James Wood’s coach with a 128-19 record, guiding the Colonels through the postseason en route to a fourth consecutive region title and another Class 4 state title.
James Wood bested E.C. Glass 3-0 to take home the Region 4D championship, before later knocking off Loudoun County 3-1 at Virginia State University to win the state championship. The Colonels are the first Frederick County team in any sport to win four straight state titles.
Patrick also coached standout individuals, as senior outside hitters Kennedy Spaid and Brenna Corbin were named to the Class 4 All-State First Team and the Region 4D First Team. They were also named to the All-Northwestern District First Team with teammates Claire Keefer (senior middle hitter) and Kyla Wilhelm (junior outside hitter).
Following her team’s impressive 2025, Patrick reflected on the Colonels’ success.
Q. What qualities made this team special?
Patrick: We had plenty of returning athletes on our roster; Kennedy Spaid, Reese Justice, Kylee Plumb, Kyla Wilhelm, Bella Middleton, Brenna Corbin and Claire Keefer were all returners from last year’s team. I think that anytime you’re able to keep a solid core group of kids together, that can add to and help your success. And then, I’ve been known to always pull up a freshman. This year, we had two freshmen on the team that were impactful. They were able to benefit the team in two different ways: Macie Hewitt in the back row and then Kennedi Bower in the front row.
We also talked plenty of times about when you’re at the top, how there’s going to be a target on you. Everybody wants to be the ‘king of the hill’ so to speak, whatever you want to call it, right? So knowing we had been there before, and we currently had the title, we knew that would be something that we would have to fight for, to keep.
Some differences [from other seasons] is that we definitely ran into more injuries than we ever have before. So much so that we had to start changing when our practice time was to allow all my kids to be able to meet and see and be serviced by the trainer. So that was a little bit different, because you’re then constantly having to pivot and put people into different positions and make it work, which we were able to do.
Q. What individuals impressed you or surprised you the most?
Patrick: Kyla Wilhelm came out of the offseason really swinging hard and really ready to make an impression on the front row. She was on First Team All-District and Second Team All-Region, she was either third or fourth on our team in a lot of stats. I just feel like that is her stepping it up. Most of the time, she’s playing on the right side, but in a couple instances, I did put her in the middle.
Claire Keefer, she also went back and forth, right side and middle. She was on First Team All-District as well, and then she was on Second Team All-Region. That was the first time that she was receiving those accolades and that acknowledgement. So that’s a really big deal.
Bella Middleton almost tripled all of her stats from last year because she was just on the court so much more as a sophomore. So that’s really good when you think about where that’s going to take the program moving forward.
Q. What do you consider the most memorable moments of the season?
Patrick: When we hosted our very first-ever tournament [the Champions Classic] that I worked to create. So hopefully that would continue, because the amount of interest that we got out … all of it was positive. We went on to win straight through the tournament [going 5-0].
Two weeks later, we went to Virginia Beach, and our first match of the day … we were going to play Flint Hill. The last time we went to that tournament, two years ago, we played Flint Hill. It was disastrous, it was a struggle for us. And then, beating them 2-0 and then going on the rest of the day, beating other schools like Bishop McNamara and Kellum … was huge for us. I mentioned those teams because they are two huge powerhouse schools.
And then, to go on and have a pretty successful rest of the season, we ended up 30-2. That was the most-ever wins in a season for our program, because we hadn’t actually had a program play that many matches in a season. And then, there’s a lot of memories; all of the bus rides and the silly celebrations that we have, the little sayings we have. There’s a bunch of different things that all go into the team bonding aspect and the buy-in and why I feel like we’ve been able to do this for four years in a row. We make it an environment where kids want to be and where the athletes want to give everything that they have.

COACH OF THE YEAR
Len Visser, Boca Raton Christian, Volleyball. All County—Deerfield Beach on Tuesday, November 18, 2025. (Carline Jean/South Florida Sun Sentinel)
Len Visser, Boca Raton Christian: The Blazers won a district title, regional championship and captured their first girls volleyball state championship in school history. They won seven straight matches to close the season. “I am proud that every girl was part of winning states. It’s special because the girls persevered through some very close losses. “We played like a team and I had total confidence in them. They all trusted each other. It’s truly one of my closest teams and they lifted each other up.”
