The Prospect Report

🚀 Standout of The Day

Khadim Diaw, C/OF, Minnesota Twins

Stats: 3/4 2 HR

Why The Performance Matters:

Diaw was selected in the third round of the 2024 MLB Draft after a solid collegiate career at Loyola Marymount and a good showing in the Cape Cod League. Injuries have been the story of his career, and Diaw has played just one full season since he arrived at Loyola Marymount in 2022.

When on the field in 2025, Diaw slashed a strong .297/.450/.445 with four home runs and ten extra-base hits. Injuries limited him to just 169 plate appearances. Diaw has an impressive approach, rarely chasing, and has also made contact on over 80 percent of his swings in pro ball. Diaw is a good athlete, and even though the power is below average, he produces respectable batted ball angles.

While he has been quite solid at the plate this year, the two-home-run night doubled his total for the season, bringing it to four. Diaw is slashing a strong .288/.403/.429 with a 13 percent walk rate. Prior to the game, Diaw had a higher OBP than slugging percentage.

Is Diaw someone you want to jump on for fantasy purposes? Probably not, but he was the standout Minor League Hitter for the day. -CC

Tyson Hardin, RHP, Milwaukee Brewers

Stats: 6 IP/3 H/1 ER/0 BB/11 K

Why The Performance Matters:

Hardin had a 7.67 ERA with a 1.77 WHIP in Double-A before making his Triple-A debut. People panicked and cut Hardin in fantasy league, but if you looked deeper, it was just a couple of bad starts that killed him.

Since joining the Triple-A team, Hardin is looking like an ace. An eleven strikeout performance on Tuesday while allowing just three hits and one run brought his Triple-A ERA down to 1.59 across 28.1 innings to pair with a 28.4 percent strikeout rate.

Hardin's fastball is in the mid-90s, touching 97 mph, but it is the pitch's unique traits that make it great. The vertical approach angle is relatively flat from the release point and misses bats at the top of the zone. While the IVB is lower than we have seen in the past at 14 inches, he is also throwing from a sub-five-foot release height and a 21-degree arm angle.

The arsenal is fairly deep, as Hardin uses a cutter as his second-most-used offering, but he also mixes in a sinker to give him three fastball variations. The sweeper and changeup are both solid offerings.

Hardin's sweeper works in the low 80s with long horizontal movement, 13 inches on average. The upper-80s changeup has good horizontal separation the other way. The 65 percent strike rate is still good despite the walk rate being up.

It is probably too late to buy low on Hardin, but if you can, I would. The arm talent is clear and he should be in the Majors soon. -CC
