Tanner Bibee is a fantasy baseball SP prospect sleeper and minor leaguer to know. Read our MLB prospects outlooks for fantasy baseball rookies and call-ups.
PROSPECT: Tanner Bibee, SP, Cleveland Guardians
ANALYSIS: With Triston McKenzie and Aaron Civale on the shelf for the next few weeks at least, Cleveland has had to roll with the duo of Peyton Battenfield and Hunter Gaddis in the rotation after Shane Bieber, Cal Quantrill, and Zach Plesac. Nothing against Battenfield and Gaddis, but Tanner Bibee will likely bump one of them from the rotation in the fairly near future.
In two Triple-A starts this season, Bibee has tossed 11 combined shutout innings with 15 strikeouts while allowing only five hits and a trio of walks. Bibee is also coming off a breakout 2022 campaign where he posted a stellar 2.17 ERA and 0.97 WHIP with a 5.2% walk rate and 32.4% strikeout rate in 25 starts between High-A and Double-A.
VERDICT: Once Bibee is up -- which should be soon -- his ability to miss bats and maintain lower ratios could allow him to make an immediate fantasy impact.
