Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Theo Gillen, 21, is a finalist for MLB Pipeline's Hitting Prospect of the Year after a 22-homer, 44-steal season across two levels.

MLB Pipeline analysts say the Rays' deep farm system and best AL record make them prime candidates for moves before the Trade Deadline.

MLB Pipeline analysts call Rays sixth-round pick Kyle Johnson, a left-hander from Virginia, one of the best values in the 2026 Draft.

Rays No. 2 prospect Brody Hopkins struck out nine and threw five hitless innings in his first pro relief appearance for Triple-A Durham.
