1. LHP Cam Caminiti | 18 | A | 2028

At 6’2” 195 lbs with 98 mile-an-hour heat from an athletic delivery, Caminiti declared a year early for the draft and landed at 24th overall. As a two-way player, he patrolled center field and was good enough there that a decision had to be made about his role. He’s shown three solid pitches (curve, slider, change) along with the fastball, making him an alarming and unique matchup for hitters at the lower levels. Atlanta didn’t even bother breaking him in during complex league play, sending him instead to Low-A late in the season. He threw just three innings there, allowing one run on three hits with four strikeouts and zero walks.

Format = Position Player | Age on 4/1/2024 | Highest Level Played | Estimated Time of Arrival

1. RHP Hurston Waldrep | 22 | AAA | 2024

With the name of a 19th century oil barren and the arsenal of a high-end big league pitcher, Hurston Waldrep represented a nice windfall for Atlanta with the 24th overall pick in this summer’s draft. His delivery borders on relievery, but a double-plus fastball/split-change combo helped him carve his way to Triple-A in half a minor league season. Atlanta has been rushing its young arms for a while as they try to supplement their world-beating offense, so Waldrep should be on the shortlist for an early promotion. Might even have a shot to make the team in spring training. He signed for a few hundred thousand under his draft slot value, and you know this team loves that.

This team features an embarrassment of riches at the major league level

Churning out home-grown rotisserie monsters at an unparalleled rate over these past few seasons. Even had enough extra pieces to go get Matt Olson when they couldn’t convince Freddie Freeman to stay. Or however that went down.

After trading for Olson then graduating RHP Spencer Strider, OF Michael Harris and SS Vaughn Grissom, the minor league system isn’t much to look at for our purposes, but that’s sort of irrelevant given the superteam they’ve built at the major league level, and this front office has been so hot for so long that we’d be wrong to leave any stones unturned in Atlanta.
