I'm assuming that means if he accepts bonus within $225k before next year he won't enter the draft and thus doesn't occupy any draft slot?
*Edit: Indeed he won't. I believe below is the only such case in current CBA.
Ragsdale's stats before today. He's lowkey an interesting prospect. Don't think I've seen any batted ball data from him on BA yet, hopefully there will be soon. Also it's kind of mind-blowing that he didn't hit any popup.
Knoth has been performing well lately, and it's interesting that he turns into a heavy groundball pitcher upon returning, not entirely sure if it's arsenal related.
Frelick' career numbers against RHP in MLB:
0.299 xwOBA, 84.8 EV, 25.3 HH%, 2.6 Barrel%, 31.6 LA-SwSp%, 102wRC+
Maybe I'm being too optimistic, but I totally think Lara has the ability to match that production from left side, and comfortably beats Frelick's numbers against LHP.
Though it should be noted that he also let the ball travels a little deeper this year, as his swing length sits at its lowest in recent years. Using the driveline formula for swing acceleration, his acceleration is slightly down this year, but nearly identical to 2024. I wonder if there's some intentional tradeoff element in it as well.
FanGraphs' Minor League Leaderboard is a great resource for minor league advanced stats. The only function I wish they could add is date range filter, so I add it in my own searching tool and here's a May recap for the entire org.
For pitchers, I ranked with FIP and for batters I ranked with age.

*For ACL games without statcast(DSL as well), they fill in pitch by pitch result afterwards, so no need to worry about strikeout being three straight Swinging Strikes. Numbers on Whiff% / Swstr% etc are all accurate.
