The Arizona Fall League (AFL) continues to deliver high-octane baseball as the Salt River Rafters sit at 6-3 after nine games, just half a game behind the league-leading Scottsdale Scorpions. The Rafters, featuring eight Diamondbacks prospects, have shown balanced performance, ranking third in offensive production with a .754 OPS and fourth defensively with a 5.42 ERA, though their standout fielding percentage of .981—including just six errors—stands out in a league where teams average over six runs per game.
Among the Diamondbacks’ prospects, Demetrio Crisantes has drawn early attention as the team’s top prospect and lone representative in MLB Pipeline’s Top 100, though his production has cooled after a strong start. While Crisantes’ batting line has dipped to .281/.324/.438, he remains the most productive Diamondbacks hitter in the league.
Meanwhile, outfielder Nathan Hall’s unusual split between a .136 batting average and a .424 on-base percentage—thanks to 11 walks in 22 plate appearances—adds intrigue to the Rafters’ lineup, while 20-year-old third baseman Yassel Soler continues to develop at a young age despite a modest .377 OPS so far.
