Future Shock: 2013 Rookie of the Year Award

With the AL RoY award a foregone conclusion this year, Kevin sets his sights on who might get some hardware from 2013's rookie class.

The Braves and Rays see a young pitcher each raise their stock, and the Mariners have one who's puzzling us all.

Thanks to the new draft rules quite a few 2012 draftees are already playing, and already increasing their stock.

Loads of pitchers from the weekend continued to reestablish themselves as players to watch.

Now that Baltimore's Manny Machado is in the majors, why not Dylan Bundy?

A few late-year promotions are looking pretty good, and a few even have the chance to get big league looks before too long.

The Angels will have to decide on a Mike Trout extension at some point. What are their options?

Every now and again, there's a performance that Kevin cannot stop thinking about. This weekend, Austin Wood gave that performance.

Kevin ranks all 43 prospects traded during the month of July.

Kevin Goldstein re-ranks the game's top prospects based on their performances to date.

This weekend featured some outstanding play from a guy desperately needing a change of scenery, and a guy who shouldn't get too used to his.

Some teams that could be buyers could have a harder time landing certain targets because of problems on the farm.

Delino DeShields is back on track, Jarred Cosart is still a tease, and Donavan Tate might be starting to find his footing.

Kevin cautions against targeting players who look like they have a lot of trade value, but not much to offer in terms of actual value.

This weekend saw some performances from a few players who are getting awfully close to the majors.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves by jumping to conclusions about the way this year's signing deadline played out.
