The MLB regular season is long over and the Arizona Fall League recently wrapped up, but there’s still baseball being played in the Caribbean as a number of prospects and fringe veterans are working hard in the various winter leagues.
The Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Puerto Rico and Mexico all play host to competitive winter leagues, with the winners from those four leagues and the Cuban national team converging for the annual Caribbean Series at the beginning of February.
These winter leagues have been going strong since late October, so let’s check in on how some of the league’s top prospects are faring in 2016 winter ball.
We’ve broken things down by position, highlighting the top two or three guys based not only on production in winter ball but on their current prospect standings.
