SEATTLE - With two weeks to go before Opening Day in Major League Baseball, the league launched an initiative to give young prospects the chance to showcase their talents before the start of the new season. MLB's Spring Breakout is aimed to minor league and rookies to get some experience during the Spring training period. This year, 16 games will be held across Arizona and Florida between March 14-17, with 12 of the games being part of the traditional doubleheaders with MLB Spring training games that day.
The construction of the rosters used the league's Pipeline Prospect list as a guide, including 71 of their Top 100 prospects. Among them, there are several Latinos trying to leave their stamp during these Spring Breakout games.
