On Thursday, MLB announced the Arizona Diamondbacks' roster for the second annual Spring Breakout event, featuring some of the top prospects in the D-backs' system.

Spring Breakout is an event that focuses on each organization's prospects, occurring from March 13-16. In total, 16 games will be played between clubs, with rosters entirely comprised of young rising prospects.

The Diamondbacks' squad will play on March 14 at 5:10 p.m. Arizona time at Salt River Fields, just a few hours following Arizona's Cactus League Matchup with the Cincinnati Reds. Fans who purchase tickets for the Spring Training game can stay without an additional purchase to watch the Spring Breakout contest.

The D-backs will face off against the Kansas City Royals' top prospects in their Spring Breakout game this year.

Seven of the D-backs' top 10 prospects per MLB Pipeline will participate in the game. While not every player present in the game will be listed on mainstream prospect rankings, the full roster is as follows:
