On Saturday, September 1, major league rosters expanded from 25 to 40 active players, therefore allowing teams to adjust their rosters to accommodate players on the disabled list as well as promote prospects from their respective minor league systems.
While today only represents the first wave of September call-ups, there have still been several intriguing prospects recalled, such as SS Jurickson Profar (Rangers), LHP Nick Maronde (Tigers), OF Avisail Garcia (Tigers) and OF Eury Perez (Nationals).
My breakdown and analysis of those recalled today is up to date as of 5:45 p.m. ET, and there are still some teams who are yet to announce their promotions. If a team is not listed, then their call-ups have not been made public or involve non-prospects.
Be sure to check back tonight following the conclusion of Saturday’s games, as well as tomorrow morning, for an updated list and scouting reports on all of the notable prospects who’ve been called up thus far.
Furthermore, once there is a comprehensive list of today’s call-ups, I will offer predictions on those who may follow over the course of September—and yes, there will be some shockers.
