Fan site South Side Sox ranks White Sox catcher Diego Natera No. 92 in its 2027 prospect list.
Natera, 19, signed with the White Sox in January 2025 for a $225,000 signing bonus. He hit .156/.415/.267 in his 2025 DSL season but threw out 36% of base-stealers, while in 2026 he hit .314/.400/.600 in 31 games but struggled behind the plate. The ranking reflects a belief he will put both sides of his game together when he moves up to the ACL in 2027.

From Thursday
White Sox have the most Silver Slugger finalists in MLB, with four players and a team nod.
According to South Side Sox, the finalists include second baseman Chase Meidroth, who posted 4.5 fWAR and a .765 OPS this season. Lone Star Ball reports Texas utility player Ezequiel Duran is a finalist for the utility award, against Detroit's Kevin McGonigle and Chicago's Sam Antonacci, and calls Antonacci's inclusion baffling.

Yankees' Cody Bellinger wins AL Platinum Glove as the league's top defensive player.
Per NY Post, the Platinum Glove winner is decided by a fan vote among the league's Gold Glove winners, and Bellinger is the second Yankee to win it after catcher Jose Trevino in 2022. Bellinger played 130 games in the outfield in 2026, 123 of them in left field, and had 21 defensive runs saved, third in baseball. Pete Crow-Armstrong won the National League award.

Nationals reportedly extend center fielder Jacob Young on a four-year, $23 million deal with a fifth-year option.
According to SB Nation, the deal includes an $8 million option for a fifth season, citing a source familiar with the contract. The fan-site writer says the Nationals now have James Wood, Daylen Lile, Dylan Crews and Young under control into the 2030s, which creates a surplus that could be traded. The writer argues a trade of Young is now unlikely, and that Crews has the higher offensive ceiling while Young is the better defender.
