Much like kids rushing downstairs Christmas morning, some of the top prospects in baseball will head to their respective ballparks on Sept. 1 wondering what lies in store for them when they arrive.
Will they be in the day's lineup, or will their manager call them into his office to give them the news they're heading to the major leagues, making their lifelong dreams a reality?
As was the case last week, we'll use MLB.com's list of baseball's top prospects as the source for our list, ignoring players like the Minnesota Twins' Byron Buxton and Chicago Cubs' Kyle Schwarber, who are already in the big leagues, but still retain prospect eligibility.
Have any of these players done enough to boost their stock over the past week to change their parent club's thinking? Or will they look to finish strong in the minors, with an eye toward cracking a 25-man roster in spring training?
Let's take a look.
Note: Players listed in alphabetical order.
