Grayson Rodriguez, RHP, Orioles. Rodriguez tossed a career-high seven innings for low Class A Delmarva. The righthander allowed one run on two hits and a walk while collecting nine strikeouts. Baltimore’s No. 5 prospect has shown good control so far, allowing just one walk in five of his eight starts this season.

Diosbel Arias, SS, Rangers. Arias had a four-hit game for high Class A Down East. The cleanup hitter drove in three runs and came around to score twice. Arias singled twice and hit two doubles, one to left field and the other to center field. The Rangers’ No. 29 prospect has had three three-hit games this season, but this was first four-hit performance.

Brady Singer, RHP, Royals. Singer tossed his third straight scoreless start for high Class A Wilmington. The righthander gave up four hits and two walks while striking out four batters in his seven frames. The Royals’ No. 1 prospect has been on a roll lately, not allowing an earned run over his last 22 innings.

Josh Fuentes, 3B, Rockies. Fuentes had a four-hit performance for Triple-A Albuquerque. The third baseman had two singles and two doubles, coming around to score twice. Colorado’s No. 12 prospect has hit in three straight games after going hitless in his previous 13 at-bats.

Wil Crowe, RHP, Nationals. Washington’s No. 5 prospect tossed a career-best seven and a third innings for Double-A Harrisburg. He allowed eight hits and three runs, but hit a two-run bomb to help out his own cause. It was the fourth straight outing that Crowe has tossed at least six innings, although he allowed five earned runs in each of his two previous starts.

Austin Beck, OF, Athletics. Beck fell a home run short of the cycle for high Class A Stockton. The outfielder reached base five times, drawing two walks and three hits. The Athletics’ No. 5 prospect collected three hits in consecutive games, which was the first time he posted back-to-back multi-hit performances this season.
