Montes and Arroyo Promoted to Tacoma | Spokane News

Lazaro Montes and Michael Arroyo, two of the Mariners’ top young hitters, have been promoted to Triple-A Tacoma after dominating in the tough hitter’s park of Double-A Arkansas. Montes, a power-hitting outfielder, smashed 12 homers in June, while Arroyo showcased elite bat skills. Both are now ranked among the top prospects in baseball—Montes third overall in the system, Arroyo fourth—with the Mariners showing serious confidence in their development. While pitching prospects like Kade Anderson and Ryan Sloan are also rising, they’re being kept in Arkansas to avoid the hitter-friendly PCL. This move brings Montes and Arroyo one step closer to the majors, and fans are watching closely to see if they can keep crushing it at the next level.
