Opening Day for the 2025 Arizona Fall League is scheduled for October 6, 2025.   This season, games will be streamed.  Games will mostly be at 4:30 EST and 9:30 EST, with off-days moving to Mondays (they were Sundays last season).  The annual HR derby will be on November 8, 2025, and the Fall Stars game will be on November 9, 2025.   The Fall Stars game will be televised on the MLB Network.  The playoff format will see a minor tweak this season as all six teams get in.  The top two teams will receive a bye, and the first round will feature the 3rd seed facing the 6th seed and the 4th seed facing the 5th seed.  The championship game will also be televised on the MLB Network on November 15, 2025. The rosters feature 10 of the top 100 prospects and two top 10 prospects.  Not all players stay the entire time, but we at least know who will begin with their squads.  Here is a list of the teams, which MLB clubs are associated with each team, and the top players for each squad.
