JD on Josh Adamczewski (Aug 3, 2026): You might not know Josh Adamczewski because he gets overshadowed by all of the talent in the Brewers farm system, but I think you are going to start hearing a lot about him very soon. All Adamczewski does at every stop is hit, with averages of .322, .320, and .321 from 2024 to 2026 with very strong walk and strikeout rates. In 24 and 25 the averages didn't come with a ton of power, but this year he is up to 15 HR and a .442 wOBA and it makes me think the power might be more legit than everyone originally thought. If you are looking for the next Kevin McGonigle-esque player in the minors, I don't think there is anyone who comps closer to Mcgonigle than Adamczewski and I hopr you are able to get exposure to him before he really hits the mainstream.
JD on Vahn Lackey (Jul 14, 2026): Four-category upside at catcher is rare, and Vahn Lackey has it after going from glove-first backstop to the top catcher in his class on a .397/.519/.772 spring with 20 homers and more walks than strikeouts. The hit tool was real before the power showed up, and he still runs well enough to steal bases from behind the plate. The Twins took him 3rd overall, a fair-value slot that should let him develop on his own timeline. Selfishly I would love to see them move him from out behind the plate, just because I feel like the bat will play so much better if he doesn't have to go through the rigors of catching on a day-to-day basis.
