Here are Thursday's top prospect performances from the Minors

It was a power-packed night of Minor League action with Top 100 prospects Colt Emerson (Mariners) and Bryce Eldridge (Giants) leading the way. Emerson went deep twice in his first multihomer game as a pro while Eldridge's lone dinger cleared just about everything. Justin Crawford (Phillies) kept the long-ball vibes going while first-year pro Joey Oakie (Guardians) produced arguably the best pitching performance of the night with 11 punchouts.

Colt Emerson, SS/3B, Arkansas (SEA No. 1/MLB No. 11)
Emerson hasn't tapped into his raw power as much as expected this season, but his first multihomer game as a pro could signal a change in that regard. The 2023 first-rounder went deep for the first time since Aug. 9 and then added his third roundtripper for Double-A Arkansas in his penultimate at-bat of the contest. Emerson entered June batting just .242 with a .727 OPS but has slashed .300/.402/.514 with 29 extra-base hits, including 10 of his 14 homers, in 65 games since June 1. Gameday

Jesús Made, SS, Wisconsin (MIL No. 1/MLB No. 5)
Made followed up his first four-hit game at High-A with three more knocks, giving him hits in 15 of his first 19 games since joining Wisconsin, as well as a dynamic play at shortstop when the Timber Rattlers had a no-hitter in progress. The 18-year-old has seven hits, including three doubles, in his past 10 at-bats to boost his slash line to .364/.430/.584 for the Timber Rattlers. Competing in his first full-season campaign, Made is batting .286 with an .810 OPS and 42 stolen bases in 102 games across two Minor League levels. Gameday

Bryce Eldridge, 1B, Sacramento (SF No. 1/MLB No. 13)
Eldridge kicked off Triple-A Sacramento's offensive onslaught with a 470-foot clout, his 16th for the River Cats and his 23rd overall, equaling the career high he established last season. The 20-year-old has gone deep twice in his past three games and nine times in August, over which time he's driven in 27 runs. Eldridge has an .836 OPS and 54 RBIs in 52 games since his promotion to the highest level of the Minors. Gameday

Justin Crawford, OF, Lehigh Valley (PHI No. 3/MLB No. 67)
Known more for his speed than his power, Crawford went deep for the third time in four games, drove in two runs and walked during his fourth consecutive multihit performance for Triple-A Lehigh Valley. The son of former All-Star Carl Crawford is 9-for-19 over that span, lifting his International League-leading average to .333, the third-highest mark in the Minors. Crawford has hit .290 or above in every full month this season, including .357 in August. Gameday

Tyson Lewis, SS, Daytona (CIN No. 4/MLB No. 84)
Lewis enjoyed a perfect night at the plate, tallying three singles, a walk and a stolen base for Single-A Daytona. The Nebraska native has hit safely in nine of his past 10 games, going 13-for-39 (.333) with four extra-base hits, two homers, nine RBIs and nine runs scored in that span. Cincinnati's second-round pick in the 2024 Draft has put together a solid debut season, slashing .317/.380/.504 in 72 games across two Minor League levels. Gameday

Aidan Smith, OF, Bowling Green (TB No. 6)
Smith has come on strong the second half of August, culminating in his third multihomer game of 2025 and first four-hit performance since July 1, 2024. The 21-year-old drove in three runs, scored three times and also reached 40 stolen bases for the second consecutive year. Smith has been especially hot of late, slashing .395/.439/.658 with five multihit games in his past 10 contests for High-A Bowling Green. Gameday

Joey Oakie, RHP, Lynchburg (CLE No. 17)
Oakie has done a complete 180-degree turn since a disastrous opening two months of his pro career, capped by his best performance to date for Single-A Lynchburg. The 2024 third-rounder struck out a career-high 11 over five hitless frames while generating 14 whiffs on 31 swings. Oakie carried a 9.64 ERA across his first eight appearances but has posted a 2.67 mark in nine outings since, striking out 39 in 33 2/3 innings. Gameday
