Early Arizona Fall League Standouts + Bowman Chrome Investments Update

The Arizona Fall League is underway, and the stars are already showing out. On this week’s Prospect Show, Adam Weinrib and Eric break down the early AFL standouts and take a closer look at how the latest Bowman Chrome market trends are shaping up a few weeks after release.

They discuss Esmerlyn Valdez’s power surge (two homers in two games) and his long-term outlook as a Rule 5–eligible boom-or-bust bat, Seaver King’s breakout week against top competition, and Hagen Smith’s dominant 4 Ks in three shutout frames. Plus, which other prospects have opened eyes early in Arizona?

Then, a Bowman Chrome check-in — which players are seeing price spikes (Cam Schlittler?), who still feels fairly valued, and who’s worth chasing right now on the hobby side.
