As the MLB season nears its conclusion, attention turns to the postseason and the potential breakout stars. This article highlights ten young players who could shine in October, divided into 'radio singles' and 'deep cuts'.

Among the 'radio singles' are Jackson Merrill, Jasson Domínguez, Jordan Westburg, Jackson Jobe, and Mark Vientos, each showcasing impressive skills and potential. The 'deep cuts' feature Spencer Arrighetti, Jhonkensy Noel, Tobias Myers, Justin Martínez, and Edgardo Henriquez, who all have the talent to make an impact for their teams.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have struggled with catching this season, rotating through four catchers: Gabriel Moreno, Adrian Del Castillo, Jose Herrera, and Tucker Barnhart.

Moreno has emerged as the most effective, boasting the lowest catcher ERA at 4.39, while Del Castillo has the worst at 5.46. These stats highlight significant variances in how pitchers perform with different catchers.

The team is facing potential issues with their bullpen's effectiveness linked to the inconsistent catching situation, which could impact their playoff aspirations.

Brandon Pfaadt made headlines by striking out seven consecutive batters, matching a franchise record for the Arizona Diamondbacks. His stellar performance, which included 12 strikeouts, helped the Diamondbacks achieve a 5-1 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers as they vie for a wild-card position. The Brewers had recently clinched the NL Central title, but Pfaadt's dominant outing overshadowed that achievement.

The Diamondbacks initiated their scoring in the fifth inning, aided by a combination of walks and an error by Brewers' third baseman Andruw Monasterio.

This week's Waiver Wire Watch highlights key players to consider adding in your fantasy baseball leagues.

Among the recommended hitters are Spencer Horwitz from the Toronto Blue Jays, who shows promise with his recent power surge, and Zack Gelof of the Oakland Athletics, noted for his combination of power and speed.

Dylan Crews of the Washington Nationals is recognized for his potential upside despite a slow start.

Other notable mentions include Michael Busch of the Chicago Cubs and Jasson Dominguez from the New York Yankees, both poised for impactful contributions.

Victor Robles has been a revelation for Seattle Mariners with impressive speed metrics, while Lars Nootbaar and Joey Bart provide viable options as well.

In a dominating performance, Christian Walker's two home runs and Zac Gallen's strong five innings propelled the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 6-0 victory over the Texas Rangers.

The win puts Arizona just a half-game behind San Diego for the top NL wild-card spot, while Texas faces an uphill battle for the AL wild card.

Both teams are looking to secure their playoff positions as the regular season nears its end.
