Baseball America Prospect Report -- September 17, 2018

Sunday's Stars

Willy Adames, SS, Rays: Adames went 2-for-3 with his seventh double and ninth home run. Adames is now hitting .267/.333/.407 for the Rays.

Cedric Mullins, OF, Orioles: Mullins went 4-for-5 with a double and his first MLB stolen base. Mullins has lived up to expectations in his first major league experience. He's hitting .276/.354/.431 in 116 plate appearances as he stakes his claim to be the Orioles' everyday center fielder in 2019.

Francisco Mejia, C, Padres. Mejia hit a walk-off grand slam for his third home run in just 30 plate appearances since joining the Padres.

Ryan O'Hearn, 1B, Royals. O'Hearn has joined Adalberto Mondesi as one of the revelations of the second half of the season as the Royals have gone 25-29 after a brutal 27-68 first half. He went 3-for-4 with two doubles yesterday and is now hitting .270/.378/.626 in 135 plate appearances. O'Hearn never slugged better than .500 in any stop in the full season minors, so there is some reason to believe that there is some significant regression ahead, but there are scouts who believe O'Hearn can be a second-division regular. Considering his excellent big league debut, he likely enters 2019 as the front runner to be the Royals first baseman.
