Many of the top prospects on this list a year ago -- including Jackson Holliday, Jackson Chourio, Wyatt Langford and Paul Skenes -- have graduated to the majors, so it is a perfect time to get familiar with a new wave of future stars ready to make their mark on the sport.

Yesterday, I wrote about MLB Pipeline’s and The Athletic’s Top 100 Prospects lists. Today, I’ll share Kiley McDaniel's rankings for ESPN, which included six Chicago players. By now, you’re probably becoming quite familiar with the names and maybe even the faces.

The Boston Red Sox have three top prospects who are nearing their MLB debuts and could push for roster spots on Opening Day during this year's Spring Training. That trio of outfielder Roman Anthony, shortstop Marcelo Mayer and infielder/outfielder Kristian Campbell all finished their 2024 seasons at Triple-A Worcester with Mayer yet to play a game at that level due to a back injury.
