Phillies Top 10 Prospects For 2026
Plus: Dante Nori races to an inside-the-park homer & every No. 1 prospect since 1983.
Dante Nori, OF, Phillies: Nori turned in one of the most exciting plays of the day in the AFL when he drilled a changeup from Joshua Loeschorn off the right-center field wall at Salt River Fields. From there, he let his legs do the rest. Once the ball ricocheted past Salt River center fielder Nelly Taylor, Nori turned on the jets, reaching a top sprint speed of 29.5 feet per second, and slid in to home plate just ahead of the tag, completing his first home run of the fall. In all, Nori went 2-for-4 with a run, a pair of RBIs and a stolen base.
Cutter Coffey, 3B, Blue Jays: Coffey has enjoyed a renaissance in the desert. After being limited to 99 games in the regular season, the 21-year-old, who moved from Boston to Toronto in the deal that netted Danny Jansen for the Red Sox, has shown hints of his offensive gifts in the Arizona Fall League. That trend continued on Thursday, when he went 3-for-4 with a double and pair of RBIs. He also stole a bag, his second of the fall.
Nick Morabito, OF, Mets: The Scottsdale Scorpions are the class of Arizona Fall League. They're 18-7 and boast many of the league's top prospects. On Thursday, their engine was driven by Morabito, who went 3-for-3 with a pair of RBIs, a walk and his 14th stolen base of the fall. Two of his hits—all singles—were scorched. Morabito reached righthanders Karson Milbrandt and Bryce Cunningham for rockets of 105.2 and 108.6 mph, respectively. Morabito has reached base in all but one of his 15 games.
Luke Adams, 3B, Brewers: Throughout his career, Adams has consistently found his way on base. In four seasons, he's never posted an on-base percentage lower than .400. The same is holding true in the Arizona Fall League. He reached base three more times on Thursday, including a pair of hits and a walk, and added two stolen bases to his card as well. For the fall, Adams is slashing .333/.471/.569 with three home runs and nearly as many walks (11) as strikeouts (12).
