Always looking to make new friends . . .

Is Kristian Campbell's ascension unprecedented? The latest Pipeline Inbox tackles that question, plus looks at Dominican Summer League standouts headed to the United States and Draft prospects who could rise into the first round: atmlb.com/3ECuhlw

In the second installment of our positional Top 10s, Jac Caglianone headlines a strong crop of 1B prospects that was boosted by premium Draft picks & position changes last year: atmlb.com/3DSgtCY

RHP Michael Arias has an intriguing three-pitch mix but struggled to harness it in 2024. See where he lands on our Yankees Top 30 after New York acquired him from the Cubs for cash considerations: atmlb.com/40ynEsN
