"After a rather fun week where we got to profile a lot of new intriguing players in the organization, we turn our focus to the top of the list. Players that come with the shine of being high round draft picks, big bonus international prospects, and the absolute steal that is Didier Fuentes. It's been a really fun week rolling this out, and we genuinely look forward to connecting with you all this evening at 7 for our Q&A."
"The Braves took Tate Southisene in the first round this year out of his Las Vegas high school. The 5'11, 180-pound infielder is the brother of 2024 Cubs fourth rounder Ty - and they have a bunch of similarities - but is considered a stronger prospect because he has more power in his game. Tate is a player who is considered to be average or above with all five tools, with his speed being his only true plus tool."
Cam Caminiti begins the year as the Braves' top prospect following a strong 2025. The organization featured several promising players, including high-round draft picks, sizable international signings, and the notable acquisition of Didier Fuentes. Tate Southisene was selected in the 2025 first round (22nd overall) from a Las Vegas high school and profiles as a 5'11, 180-pound infielder with above-average tools and added power compared to his brother. Southisene shows a good approach and potential to stick at short, posted a small-sample .219/.242/.297 in 66 plate appearances with Augusta, and projects to need development time before a big-league impact.
