Diamondbacks Top 30 Prospects: Midseason 2023 Edition
We're now two months into the 2023 season, so we have a reliable enough sample to make adjustments to the Diamondbacks Top 30 Prospects list. In this midseason update, we'll factor in breakout performances, underlying stats beyond OPS and ERA, and tools. For comparison, here's the list from the start of the season.
Rookies Corbin Carroll, Ryne Nelson, and Drey Jameson have graduated from the list, as all three players have spent 45 days on the active roster between 2022 and 2023. Kristian Robinson has also been reinstated from the restricted list and assigned to an affiliate, so he becomes a prospect once again.
Without further ado, here's the midseason Top 30:
