Oklahoma City, the Dodgers’ Triple-A affiliate, opens play in the new Triple-A West, East Division nee Pacific Coast League on Thursday night at Round Rock. Josiah Gray is the Dodgers’ top pitching prospect, and gets the call on opening day for OKC.
Baseball Prospectus, ESPN, and The Athletic tabbed Gray as the Dodgers’ top prospect heading into 2021, and he was second behind catcher Keibert Ruiz at Baseball America and MLB Pipeline. Gray and Ruiz were the only two Dodgers rated as consensus top-100 prospects by those national outlets.
“It would be hard to say [prospect rankings] don’t strike my interest from time to time, but I truly try not to pay any attention to it,” Gray said Tuesday. “Those things, I try not to get too caught up over. You can be number one in all of baseball, but if you’re not going out there every night and putting up the numbers and helping your team win, then that stuff doesn’t mean so much.”
