In 12 games this month for Double-A Erie, McGonigle has five home runs and a 1.082 OPS.

EDGE Analysis

In his first 14 games for Erie following a promotion in early July, McGonigle posted a solid .302 batting average but only went deep once. The 21-year-old has displayed increased power since the calendar flipped to August, however, with the five long balls, including four homers in his last five games. McGonigle has quickly made a name for himself as a top prospect, and a promotion to Triple-A Toledo could be on tap later this year if he keeps raking at Double-A.

Through 11 games with Double-A Erie, McGonigle is slashing .275/.383/.475 with a home run, a stolen base and nine RBI.

EDGE Analysis

McGonigle was promoted from High-A West Michigan to Double-A on July 6, and he hasn't skipped a beat. The top prospect delivered two doubles for the SeaWolves on Sunday while making the start at shortstop. The Tigers are on pace for another postseason trip in 2025, so they likely won't rush McGonigle up to the majors for some development time in September. However, the 20-year-old infielder has been a fast riser through the minors, and if he keeps performing well down the stretch, McGonigle could be poised to make his MLB debut early in 2026.

The 20-year-old, who was selected with the No. 37 overall pick back in 2023, has quickly established himself as one of the best pure hitters in the minors. McGonigle has yet to appear above the High-A level and is likely still a few years away from the majors, but he's worth keeping a close eye on, particularly in dynasty formats.

EDGE Analysis

The Tigers haven't provided a timeline for McGonigle's return, but with High-A West Michigan's season ending Sept. 8, the 20-year-old infielder is most likely done for 2024. The 37th overall pick in the 2023 First-Year Player Draft, McGonigle finished his first full professional season with a .309/.401/.452 slash line to go with five home runs and 22 stolen bases over 328 plate appearances between stops with West Michigan and Single-A Lakeland.
