Baseball America gives Mariners fans a tip for watching Jonny Farmelo this spring

Despite being selected in the first round of the 2023 draft, Jonny Farmelo hasn't had the easiest professional career thus far. He got off to a hot start by posting a 127 wRC+ with Single-A Modesto in 2024 before a knee injury limited him to just 46 games. He missed more time in 2025 and played just 29 games in High-A, posting a 102 wRC+.

But now that he's healthy, it looks like things are finally coming together. He was a full participant in the Arizona Fall League, where he hit for a .847 OPS over 101 plate appearances, and he finally seems poised to tap into the tools that made him a highly touted prospect three years ago.
