Arizona Fall League: A’s hitting prospects start strong

The Arizona Fall League is off and running, with four days of games in the books. The Mesa Solar Sox have a 3-1 record so far, and the Oakland A’s contingent of seven players has helped more than hurt. For the most part, the hitters have been strong in the early going, though some of the pitchers have struggled.

Leading the way at the plate is outfielder Luis Barrera. He didn’t make our Community Prospect List last winter, but he’s stood as a sleeper for a while now and he showed signs of breaking out this summer.
