The Arizona Fall League announced its preliminary rosters on Wednesday, the first step toward kicking off another six weeks of fun in the desert. This year\u2019s group includes 10 of BA\u2019s Top 100 prospects, including No. 2 Kevin McGonigle<\/a> and No. 10 Sebastian Walcott<\/a>.<\/p>\n The 2025 AFL season begins on Oct. 6 and lasts until Nov. 15. Beyond the usual six stadiums in Scottsdale, Surprise, Glendale, Salt River, Peoria and Mesa, the AFL this year will take its show on the road to Goodyear for a few games and, on Oct. 13, to Kino Sports Complex in Tucson for a triple header.<\/p>\n The Arizona Fall League gives prospects who were injured part of the year a place to make up innings and at at-bats. It also allows players who are being considered for spots on the 40-man roster one final audition while serving as a finishing school for some of the game\u2019s elite prospects.<\/p>\n Rookie of the Year favorite Nick Kurtz<\/a> played in the league last fall, as did Braves catcher Drake Baldwin<\/a>, White Sox shortstop Colson Montgomery<\/a> and Brewers infielder Caleb Durbin<\/a>.<\/p>\n Who will be the next AFL breakthrough players? The answer is just weeks away. In the meantime, we\u2019ll be breaking down full rosters for each AFL team. Below, you can find a look at the Glendale Desert Dogs.<\/p>\n firstlastteamposbthtwtageAlexAmal\ufb01TORPRR6\u2019118524AngelBastardoTORPRR6\u2019117523TylerBradtSTLPRR5\u20191119624D.J.CarpenterSTLPRR6\u2019824225JustinChambersLADPLL6\u2019221220RandelClementeSTLPRR6\u2019317323TylerDavisCWSPRR6\u2019321026DrueHackenbergATLPRR6\u2019222023CarsonJacobsCWSPRR6\u2019921524Hyun-SeokJangLADPRR6\u2019420021JacobKroegerATLPLL6\u2019119025Chen-WeiLinSTLPRR6\u2019718823AlexMakarewichLADPRR6\u2019018523PaytonMartinLADPRR6\u2019017021ConnorMcCulloughCWSPRR6\u2019118525L.J.McDonoughATLPRR6\u2019420025KaiPetersonTORPLL6\u2019119023YondreiRojasTORPRR5\u20191018022JaroldRosadoCWSPRR6\u2019321523DarlinSaladinSTLPRR5\u20191115022LukeSinnardATLPRR6\u2019825022HagenSmithCWSPLL6\u2019323522CoryWallATLPRR6\u2019423025JakobWrightLADPLL6\u2019017022ChayYeagerTORPSR5\u20191118023CATCHERSEdwardDuranTORCRR5\u20191117021GraysenTarlowSTLCRR5\u20191019024INFIELDERSNachoAlvarezATLINFRR5\u20191019022SamAntonacciCWSINFLR6\u2019019322RyanGalanieCWSINFRR6\u2019221525JimJarvisATLINFLR5\u20191019024JoshKasevichTORINFRR6\u2019120024LoganWagnerLADINFSR6\u2019120021OUTFIELDERSPatrickClohisyATLOFLL5\u20191019023KendallGeorgeLADOFLL5\u2019917020TravisHoneymanSTLOFRR6\u2019219023BradenMontgomeryCWSOFSR6\u2019222022Josue DePaulaLADOFLL6\u2019318520MiguelUguetoSTLOFRR6\u2019118523<\/p>\n Top 100 Prospects: Josue De Paula<\/a> (18), Braden Montgomery<\/a> (79)<\/p>\n Storylines: Speed fiends, this is the roster for you.
