On April 20, Texas Rangers' minor leaguers are heating up just two weeks into the season across all four affiliates. They've already called up one top 30 prospect from MLB pipeline. Pitcher Gavin Collier, who notched his first big league win last week after a solid outing. Meanwhile, Trebley Reliever Payton Gray is making the strongest case for the next promotion. The 30-year-old has a zero ERA over seven appearances with Round Rock, one win, two saves, 15 strikeouts, and just two walks in 12-point. Two innings. Batters are hitting only 186 against him, so if the bullpen needs help during their nine-game homestand, expect his name to come up. Over in double A Frisco, third-basement fraying your chavez exploded last week with four home runs to lead the organization. The 26-year-old is slashing 306 over 413 over 548 with 10 RBI, showing the power that's eluded him since, getting drafted back in 2018. High A pitcher Aiden Curry is turning heads too,

not yet a top 30 guy but close. And two starts for Hickory, he's 1-0, with a 1.00 ERA, 13 strikeouts, one walk in nine innings. At 23, fewer walks this year could earn him a quick jump to Frisco by late April. Class A, Hickory's Dewar Tovar, matched Chavez's four homers, slashing 263 over 333, over 579 with 13 RBI, and 15 games. This 20-year-old Venezuelan sign-e from last year's class is already nearing his career highs in his first full-season stint, hinting at prospect. Status if he keeps mashing. I'm Cory with the Story, and you've been listening to MLB News today, AI-powered baseball coverage.
