Zion Rose Leads Royals Prospects Headed to Arizona Fall League

Kansas City Royals 2026 first-round pick Zion Rose will participate in the Arizona Fall League, suiting up for the Surprise Saguaros. Selected sixth overall out of Louisville, the right-handed-hitting outfielder played 19 games for High-A Quad Cities, hitting .268 with one home run, 14 walks, and 14 steals. The AFL stint will give the Royals a valuable look at how his speed and athleticism play against top-tier competition this fall.
