The minor league season is only about a week away from its conclusion, but that doesn’t mean the prospect fans don’t have anything to follow until next spring. The Arizona Fall League is right around the corner, meaning a whole lot of the game’s best prospects will be in one place for about six weeks for that play out in the desert.
There are some changes to the league this year, most notably that this is starting earlier than it had in the past. The AFL had always started right around the time the MLB playoffs had gotten underway, but this year the start date was moved up to the day after the Triple-A playoffs end.
