Rays No. 1 prospect OF Theo Gillen reached base last night in all 6 plate appearances for @BGHotRods, going 3-for-3 w/ 1 2B, 2 RBI, 3 BB, 1 R, and 4 SB.
He’s 1 of 2 minor leaguers since at least 2005 to have 6+ PA, reach in each of them, and steal 4+ bases in a single game.
Theo Gillen has 3 hits, 2 walks, and now has 17 SB this season.
He’s now hitting .319 with a 1.023 OPS
Career high contact rate while showing more aggression at the plate and he’s going the other way more than he’s pulling the ball. Said he was Top 15-20 10 days ago.
🐻 THEY POKED THE WRONG BEAR
Cooper Webb (@CooperWebb2026) didn’t have his best stuff and labored thru a very long fourth inning.
But a competitive back-and-forth exchange with a key hitter and a loud away crowd chanting ‘overrated’ kicked Webb into another gear.
He struck out 6 of final 7 batters he faced and ended up with 10Ks in 6.0 solid IP (2ER). Most importantly, he earned the W.

A few of my favorite recent reads for anyone that enjoys reading about Founders and CEO's
Learning how they each build, allocate capital, operate, etc
I really enjoyed each one of these books, but Michael Dell's is my favorite out of the five if I had to pick one
Theo Gillen is absolutely insane right now. He adds his 9th HR of the season and is now hitting .330 with a 1.099 OPS. I don't know how many prospects are hotter than him right now.
He was a high riser in the last updates, and he looks like a potential T-20 prospect.

Theo Gillen had 3 hits yesterday. including 2 triples.
Today he has 4 hits, with some infield singles showing his speed. The OPS is up to 1.072 with 8 HR and 14 SB. He’s one of the best position player prospects in baseball.
Theo Gillen smoked his 2nd triple of the game and it rolled all the way to the wall. He would end up scoring on the play.
Gillen has 3 hits tonight and is hitting .308 with a 1.055 OPS. He has looked fantastic to start the year and is really squaring balls up
