Here’s a look at top prospects to watch in Friday’s Minor League action:

Mejia streak watch: Indians No. 6 prospect Francisco Mejia aims to extend his 40-game hit streak as Lynchburg faces Winston-Salem at 7:05 p.m. ET on MiLB.TV.

Hitter to watch: Raimel Tapia (Rockies’ No. 5), Hartford vs. Harrisburg (Game one of doubleheader at 1:05 p.m. ET)
