"Monday evening marks the 2025 return of the Arizona Fall League, and the Atlanta Braves will be sending an interesting group of players this season. The Braves will be sending their representatives to the Glendale Desert Dogs this season, who will not be playing on opening day but instead opening their season on Tuesday, October 7th. This year all AFL games will be streamed on MLB.com, giving dedicated Braves fans an outlet to cure the October blues."
"Alvarez missed most of the season due to injuries, and when he was on the field he showed disappointing production at the major league level. Alvarez was forced into MLB action with the slew of injuries on the big league club, and his lack of time to develop compared to last year showed as he struggled significantly at the plate and only due to his highly-graded third base defense barely landed above replacement level."
The Arizona Fall League returns in 2025 with the Atlanta Braves sending prospects to the Glendale Desert Dogs, who open October 7 and will stream games on MLB.com. The Braves will send nine prospects, including three ranked among the top 16 on Battery Power’s midseason top 30 list. Nacho Alvarez Jr., 22, missed most of the season with injuries, struggled in limited major league action, and will use the AFL to regain development. Jhancarlos Lara excelled in Gwinnett out of the bullpen and will receive additional innings as the club prepares him for a bullpen role.
