Jesús Made Named Baseball's No. 1 Prospect by MLB Pipeline and Baseball America

The change reflects Konnor Griffin graduating under MLB lists' 130 at-bat rule.

Overview

  • The 19-year-old switch-hitter was ranked No. 1 on Wednesday by MLB Pipeline and Baseball America after Konnor Griffin crossed the 130 at-bat cutoff.
  • Prospect lists remove players who exceed 130 major-league at-bats, a graduation rule that cleared the top spot.
  • Playing for Double-A Biloxi, the Dominican signee has a .740 OPS with three homers and 15 steals this season, even with a rough May at .464 OPS.
  • MLB Pipeline projects a 2026 arrival, and Heavy reports the Brewers could route him to Triple-A Nashville before any call-up.
  • FanGraphs rates his long-term ceiling as elite with future 60 grades for hit, power, and field, which could pressure Milwaukee’s plans at shortstop if he earns a promotion.
