Three top-100 prospects
Josue De Paula, the No. 6 prospect in baseball, hit .323 in 11 games with the Dodgers this month before being optioned down for the playoffs. The 21-year-old was born in Brooklyn, played one high school game before COVID shut it down, and moved to the Dominican Republic to train before signing as an international free agent. Los Angeles may add him to the NLDS roster.
Mike Sirota, No. 14, was promoted to Triple-A last week after a 72-game on-base streak — the longest in the minors since 2014.
Seaver King, No. 68, leads off for Rochester. Washington's 2024 first-rounder has a 70-grade run tool and led all full-season Nationals minor leaguers in average and OPS.
James Tibbs III was the first Pacific Coast League player since 1982 with 100 RBIs, 100 runs and 100 walks. Trey Lipscomb is top five in Triple-A in home runs, RBIs and slugging.
Liover Peguero, the Dominican infielder who came up with Pittsburgh, starts at first for Rochester. Andrés Chaparro, the Venezuelan infielder, is on the roster after time with Washington and Arizona. Hyeseong Kim, the South Korean infielder, starts at second for Oklahoma City.
The pitchers
Emmet Sheehan made 23 appearances for the Dodgers this year with a 4.57 ERA, and has a 1.50 ERA in four Triple-A starts.
Jack Cebert is being called up from Double-A Harrisburg. The Yankees drafted him out of Texas Tech and traded him to Washington in August in the Luis García Jr. deal.
Why it's one game
Rochester went 90-58, the best record in the minors, and won its first International League title since 1997. Oklahoma City won the Pacific Coast League for the second time in four years.
They're playing once, at a neutral site, because a playoff series costs more than it draws.
This is the 20th Triple-A National Championship Game and the fifth at Las Vegas Ballpark.
