Jacob Wilson and the Athletics will take on Leo De Vries and the Padres in an MLB Spring Breakout game on Friday night.

The Athletics will take on the San Diego Padres in a Spring Breakout MiLB Prospect Showcase game on Friday afternoon at the Peoria Sports Complex in Peoria, Arizona. According to mlb.com, “the MLB Spring Breakout is a four-day event showcasing baseball’s future: the current stars of Minor League Baseball. Each roster was constructed using MLB Pipeline’s Top 30 Prospects lists as its foundation. That means that players with rookie eligibility entering the 2025 season — most of whom came directly from those Top 30s — are eligible for their club’s Spring Breakout roster.

Major League rookie eligibility is defined as any player who has not yet exceeded 130 at-bats, 50 innings pitched or 45 total regular-season days on an active roster at the game’s top level. Spring Breakout games are now nine innings instead of seven innings, and similar to the MLB games, they will be utilizing the ABS (automatic ball strike challenge system) for their games.”

The Athletics saw several key players from this roster leave by not qualifying for rookie status, including Mason Miller, an All-Star, and Joey Estes. However, the team does still boast two players in the top 40 on the MLB Top 100 prospects list, including No. 31, shortstop Jacob Wilson, and No. 38, first baseman Nick Kurtz.

On the other side, San Diego also puts forth just two players in the top 40 as well with a player breaking the top 20. The MLB’s No. 18 prospect Leo de Vries will be on showcase as the team’s starting shortstop, as will catcher Ethan Salas, the No. 33 prospect. They will be joined by top prospects Kash Mayfield, Humberto Cruz, and Boston Bateman.
