The third installment of MLB’s Spring Breakout series is fast approaching. Once the games begin on March 19, prospects from all 30 organizations will have a chance to show their stuff on the biggest minor league stage this side of the Futures Game. 

Most of the Top 100 will be in action, but they make up just a small fraction of the talent taking the field in Arizona and Florida. Plenty more prospects will have a chance to build on strong beginnings to their careers and kick-start seasons they hope will help them raise their profiles even higher (just ask Trey Yesavage last year).

Here are 10 players with a golden chance to jump into the national conversation with a strong Spring Breakout performance.

Trey Gregory-Alford, RHP, Angels

Throwing hard is a great way to get noticed in the prospect world, and Gregory-Alford has velocity to spare. The righthander brought his heater up to 101 mph in his first pro season, which he split between the Arizona Complex League and Low-A. He backs the fastball with a potentially plus slider and a curveball and changeup that need to improve if he is to remain on a starter’s track. Gregory-Alford was one of the best prospects in the ACL and shined in his first test at full-season ball, but he could open more eyes if he shines in Spring Breakout play. 

Luke Sinnard, RHP, Braves

At 6-foot-8 and 250 pounds, it’s probably been a while since Sinnard snuck up on anyone. Yet, the Indiana righthander—who missed his draft season with Tommy John surgery and a subsequent nerve injury—quietly made waves in his debut season. Sinnard brings mid-90s four- and two-seam fastballs and backs them with a low-spin changeup and a fringy curveball. The lack of a third pitch presents considerable reliever risk, but he’ll be given every chance to start and has the stuff to overwhelm hitters.

David Hagaman, RHP, Diamondbacks

After recovering from Tommy John surgery that cut short his final season at West Virginia, Hagaman immediately turned heads in his debut season. The righthander cut quickly through the lower levels, accumulating enough cachet along the way to merit inclusion in the deal that brought Merrill Kelly to Texas. He heads his mix with a plus fastball-curveball combination and backs it with a 55-grade changeup and average slider.

Christian Zazueta, RHP, Dodgers

Zazueta came to the Dodgers from the Yankees in the trade that sent Caleb Ferguson to New York. At 6-foot-3 and 180 pounds, the righthander has plenty of projection to go with his interesting stuff. His mix currently includes a fastball and changeup that could reach above-average or better heights in the big leagues, and he throws a high volume of strikes, as well. The next step will be developing a better breaking ball, but he has plenty of ingredients to rise up the Dodgers’ ranks. 

Trevor Cohen, OF, Giants

Cohen was San Francisco’s third-round pick in 2025 and started his pro career on a strong note. The Rutgers alum is a hard-nosed, throwback-type of player who has the potential for above-average-or-better tools in every category except power. He’s got a sound knowledge of the strike zone and the bat-to-ball skills to spray line drives across the outfield. He’s another piece of a wholly up-arrow system. 

Juneiker Caceres, OF, Guardians

Lefthanded offensive impact is a hallmark of Cleveland’s system, and Caceres fits right in. He was one of the system’s best prospects two seasons ago in the DSL and didn’t miss a beat upon matriculating to the U.S. in 2025. Caceres doesn’t have any plus tools, but he’s one of the purer hitters in the system and could be an average defender in either corner outfield spot. Caceres was excellent in the Arizona Complex League and reached Low-A for 30 games toward season’s end. If everything clicks, he has a future as an everyday outfielder.

Kevin Defrank, RHP, Marlins

Teenagers with triple-digit fastballs hardly need help making headlines, but Defrank has only begun to hint at his ceiling. The righthander was one of the best pitchers in the 2025 Dominican Summer League and will be one of the most electric arms in Jupiter this year—whether that’s in the Florida Complex League or Low-A—for his sophomore season. Defrank’s fastball might be the headline, but he can also vex hitters with an above-average sweeper and a potentially-plus changeup. His Spring Breakout appearance will be appointment viewing.

Tucker Musgrove, RHP, Padres

Trades have mostly hollowed the Padres’ system, but it’s not completely empty. Ethan Salas and Kruz Schoolcraft are the headliners, but Musgrove has the kind of stuff to rise quickly. The former two-way player brings his fastball up to 100 mph and backs it with a high-upside sweeper and a fringy curveball. Musgrove’s athleticism and present stuff give him a strong foundation. Now, it’s time to showcase them over the course of a full season. A strong Spring Breakout performance would be a good start.

David Davalillo, RHP, Rangers

Unlike the rest of the pitchers on this list, Davalillo doesn’t have knockout stuff. But his results speak for themselves. He was the minor league ERA leader in 2024, then followed up that campaign with a stellar first test at the upper levels. Davalillo has a deep, varied arsenal and a knack for putting all his pitches in hard-to-reach parts of the strike zone. The righthander has aced every test so far, and a strong Breakout appearance would raise his profile even further. 

Roldy Brito, 2B/OF, Rockies

Brito was one of the best prospects in the Arizona Complex League last summer, then bullied the competition in the Low-A California League, as well. Brito’s loudest tool is his double-plus speed, which serves him especially well on the days he mans center field. At the plate, the switch-hitter has strong plate discipline and burgeoning power, giving him the beginnings of a power-speed profile. There’s polish to be applied, but he’s one of the system’s most exciting talents and could wind up on the Top 100 at some point this summer.
