10 MLB Prospects Who Could Be the Centerpiece of Winter Meetings Trades

    RIght-handers Chase Hampton (20 ) and Drew Thorpe (23 ) are the consensus top pitching prospects in the New York Yankees system, and those two might be deemed untouchable this offseason.

    Not far behind that tandem is right-hander WIll Warren.

    The 24-year-old posted a 3.91 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 125 strikeouts in 129 innings between High-A and Double-A in his pro debut during the 2022 season after going in the eighth round of the 2021 draft.

    The 6'2", 175-pound right-hander sits in the mid-90s with his fastball and backs it with three quality offspeed pitches, including a high-spin slider that is his best strikeout pitch. He needs to add some strength and to refine his overall command to reach his upside as a No. 3 starter, but the potential is there for him to be a top-tier pitching prospect.
