5/18/25 | When Will Leo De Vries Debut for Padres? Insider Answers. San Diego Padres No. 1 prospect Leo De Vries has been tearing up the minor leagues with High-A Fort Wayne, but The Athletic's Dennis Lin does not believe the 18-year-old is ready for high pressure games at the end of the season despite speculation he may make an appearance for the Friars before the end of 2025. "De Vries looks quite good, but at the risk of underestimating the most aggressive player-development organization in baseball, we can assume he won't become the first 18-year-old hitter to reach the majors since Alex Rodriguez in 1994," Lin writes. "The Padres believe De Vries eventually could approach the type of impact Merrill and Fernando Tatis Jr. are making, but here's more context: Tatis compiled more than 1,200 plate appearances in the minors before he debuted as a 20-year-old ," Lin added.
