With the calendar flipping from June to July, that means that the MLB All-Star Game is now on the immediate horizon along with the MLB Draft as well. The intersection of all of that is the All-Star Futures Game, where some of the most promising prospects in all of baseball get to showcase their skills on the big stage during the All-Star festivities.
The Atlanta Braves will be sending one representative to the Futures Game this season as Cam Caminiti has gotten the nod and will be participating in the big
event at Citizens Bank Park. Here’s more on the National League squad as a whole from MLB’s press release:
he National League Futures squad is led by MLB Pipeline’s number one overall prospect Jesús Made of the Milwaukee Brewers and Washington Nationals shortstop Eli Willits, who was the number one overall selection in the 2025 Draft and currently ranks as the third-best prospect in all of Baseball according to MLB Pipeline rankings. The NL roster also features Josue De Paula of the Los Angeles Dodgers, who is ranked fourth by MLB Pipeline and returns for a second consecutive year after claiming the Larry Doby MVP Award last year in Atlanta, along with Pittsburgh’s Seth Hernandez, who was the number five overall pick in last June’s Draft and is currently ranked as the sixth-best prospect by MLB Pipeline. Willits and Hernandez are joined by seven other fellow first round Draft picks on the NL roster, including Colorado’s Charlie Condon (3rdoverall, 2024); Liam Doyle (5th overall, 2025) of the St. Louis Cardinals; San Francisco’s Gavin Kilen (13th overall, 2025); Arizona’s Kayson Cunningham (18th overall, 2025); Atlanta’s Cam Caminiti (24th overall, 2024); San Diego’s Kash Mayfield (25th overall, 2024); and Philadelphia’s Gage Wood (26th overall, 2025).
As evidenced by his selection to this squad, Cam Caminiti has been pretty solid at the High-A level so far this season. He’s produced a 4.48 ERA (ERA- of 97) and a FIP of 4.05 (FIP- of 87) over 14 appearances (13 starts) and 62.1 innings pitched. Caminiti came into this season as a consensus Top 100 prospect and he’s maintained that status with his performances so far this season. He’s also sitting atop Atlanta’s prospect rankings as the consensus No. 1 prospect for the Braves, so it makes all the sense in the world that Caminiti would be flying the flag for Atlanta’s farm system during the Futures Game.
If you’re planning on watching this year’s Futures Game, things are going to be a little different now.
