Orioles Boost Farm System with Top Young Pitching Prospects

The Baltimore Orioles have been active in rebuilding their farm system, focusing heavily on pitching prospects to address past deficiencies. Among their promising young players is Esteban Meija, an international free agent who has shown strong performances in the lower minor leagues and earned a promotion to Single-A. Meanwhile, the Orioles are set to face the Oakland Athletics' top pitching prospect Luis Morales, who recently transitioned to a relief role and is gaining experience with limited MLB innings. On the Athletics' roster, former Orioles prospect Darell Hernaiz has seized his opportunity after injuries in the team, hitting .321 with two home runs in his recent MLB appearances. In the American League East, the Boston Red Sox are experiencing a surge from their young talent, including second-round draft pick Henry Godbout, who has started his professional career impressively at High-A Greenville. Additionally, Red Sox rookie Kristian Campbell is showing significant improvement in Triple-A after early struggles, maintaining a strong hitting streak and drawing praise and cautious optimism from team management.
