Padres' Leodalis De Vries: Included on Fall League roster
The Padres list De Vries (shoulder) as one the organization's eight prospects on the Peoria Javelinas' Arizona Fall League roster, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
A right shoulder strain prevented De Vries from playing in any games for Single-A Lake Elsinore after Aug. 17, but his inclusion on the Peoria roster implies that he's expected to be healthy by the time Arizona Fall League play gets underway Oct. 7. De Vries won't turn 18 years old until next month, but the infielder has already established himself as one of the top lower-level prospects in baseball after slashing .237/.361/.441 with 11 home runs and 13 stolen bases in 360 plate appearances in the California League this season.

Padres' Leodalis De Vries: Suffers shoulder injury
De Vries will miss time due to a right shoulder strain suffered during Sunday's game at Single-A Lake Elsinore, AJ Cassavell of MiLB.com reports.
De Vries attempted to make a diving play in the field and paid the price. According to Cassavell, the team expects the injury to sideline one of its top prospects for the remainder of the season, though it's still too early to officially shut him down.

Padres' Leodalis De Vries: As advertised at Single-A
De Vries is slashing .266/.389/.506 with five home runs, five steals and a 23.2 percent strikeout rate in his last 20 games for Single-A Lake Elsinore.
The consensus top prospect in this year's Jan. 15 international signing class, De Vries was aggressively assigned to Single-A for his pro debut as a 17-year-old. He struggled to start the year but has quickly found his footing and is showcasing five-category fantasy upside.

Padres' Leodalis De Vries: Struggling in Single-A ball
De Vries is slashing .148/.303/.259 with a 30.3 percent strikeout rate through seven games with Single-A Lake Elsinore.
San Diego was aggressive in placing De Vries in Single-A as a 17-year-old, and the prized international prospect began his professional career by going 4-for-13 with four RBI over his first three games. However, he's gone 0-for-14 with six strikeouts over his subsequent four contests, highlighting the inevitable growing pains given his age. On a positive note, De Vries has compiled a 15.2 percent walk rate thus far, so he's at least demonstrating some patience at the plate.
