Tampa Bay Rays 2026 Minor League Roundup: Week 14

This was the 14th week of full minor league play (stats are entering play on Tuesday, July 14th).

According to FanGraphs (which factors in age and proximity to the big leagues), prospect Caden Bodine remains the top performer in the system. His full season statline is further below.

Meanwhile, there is a new pitcher reigning supreme in the system, Jacob Kisting. The Rays acquired Kisting for Eric Orze last November and the 23-year old is having a breakout campaign in High-A. Thus far he has compiled a 1.67 ERA | 2.56 FIP with a 28.5 K% & 5.1 BB% over 70 IP.

The Futures Game was Sunday. Nathan Flewelling earned MVP honors after hitting the game’s lone homerun while Theo Gillen collected a hit in three trips to the plate.
Slater de Brun finally made his organization debut as he began a rehab assignment in the Complex League
