The Dodgers have continued their torrid pace towards October, and it seems like the roster just continues to get deeper and stronger. Over the last week, the team has only bolstered its playoff roster.

The addition of Curtis Granderson has added another tough choice to the Dodgers’ postseason roster and Rich Hill’s dominant yet heartbreaking performance last night has added to the debate on the starting rotation going forward.

To add to all that, the minor league season is coming to a close and folks are expecting to see some of the Dodgers’ homegrown talent that has been brewing in Oklahoma City, Tulsa and even Rancho Cucamonga.

As much fun as it is to watch the future get a chance at The Show this time of year, the Dodgers have bigger fish to fry and will use this month as more of a tryout for the playoff roster. Players like Joc Pederson and Rob Segedin are big league guys who just happen to play on a team with no room for them; Kyle Farmer could probably be included in that group as well.

So, despite September maybe not being the month of fun it will be for other teams, Dodgers’ fans still have plenty of good news to cheer about when it comes to the future. This week, the organization handed out a few awards and leagues began to honor their players.

Let’s take a look at three top prospects that took home some hardware and where they stand with the Dodgers going forward.
