The last few days have seen a handful of Dodgers outfield prospects make an impact in spring training games.
Mike Sirota injured his knee last July and finally got into a game on Saturday, and homered against the Rangers in Surprise. He’s is one of four Dodgers outfielders peppered throughout various top-100 prospect lists this year.
Josue De Paula and Zyhir Hope have been active all 10 days of Cactus League games this spring, with each one playing in nine games so far this spring. De Paula has seven hits in 17 at-bats with a double and four walks. Hope is 5-for-15 with two doubles and three walks, plus a few nice catches in left field.
Eduardo Quintero is the youngest of the group, entering his age-20 season, and just reached High-A Great Lakes for the last six weeks of 2025. That puts him behind the others in terms of reaching the majors, even if he might have the highest ceiling of the group.
Sirota turns 23 in June, but High-A is his highest level as well, having played only 35 games with the Loons before the injury, just three games fewer than Quintero, two years his junior. Sirota was a first-round draft pick of the Cincinnati Reds in 2024 before getting sent to the Dodgers in the Gavin Lux trade. He didn’t play professionally with the Reds in 2024 and only played 59 games last year before getting hurt.
The two outfielders acquired in the Dustin May trade last year are the two oldest of the group, in their age-23 season, and both have been busy this spring. Zach Ehrhard leads the Dodgers with eight starts so far in Cactus League play, while James Tibbs III has started seven games and played in nine games, with the pair seeing time in right field, left field, first base, and designated hitter.
Tibbs has homered in each of the last two games, including a 458-foot shot Monday against the Rockies that’s the longest Dodgers home run this spring.
With extensive time in Double-A already, it wouldn’t be a surprise if both Tibbs and Ehrhard start the season with Triple-A Oklahoma City, or at the very least should play there way up there soon enough.

Today’s question is which of these Dodgers outfield prospects will play in the majors first?
