This weekend, Major League Baseball will hold its third annual Spring Breakout which features baseball’s top prospects facing off against one another as Spring Training winds down. Bragging rights are on the line along with some future roster spots as the sport’s best and brightest compete head-to-head.
The A’s Spring Breakout game is scheduled for 1:05 P.M. PT, Sunday, March 22, at Hohokam Stadium against the top prospects from the Brewers’ system. The rosters are developed by analyzing each franchise’s
top thirty prospect list and then bolstering the lineups with additions submitted by the teams. The players will participate in the showcase then be dispersed to their minor league assignments. I expect some of them will not be out of our eyesight for long. Players who will headline the A’s team are familiar names such as Leo De Vries, Henry Bolte, Jamie Arnold, all top-five prospects who played well during Spring Training but will start the season down on the farm.
The final rosters were released today, the A’s in Martín Gallegos column this morning:
