Garrett Mitchell is a fantasy baseball waiver wire stash for Week 15 (2024). Target Garrett Mitchell as a top prospect free-agent waiver wire pickup for fantasy baseball.
BALLER MOVE: Stash in Deeper Leagues
CALL-UP ETA: Early July
ANALYSIS: Garrett Mitchell is set to come off the 60-day IL today, which means he could be activated and on the Brewers roster as early as tomorrow.
Milwaukee already has four outfielders who have all been seeing regular playing time, so it's possible that Mitchell could be optioned to Triple-A Nashville if they can't find a spot for him on the big league roster.
But Mitchell has a strong case to make the team based on what he did last year for Milwaukee (.271 AVG, 5 HR, 16 RBI, 9 SB in 126 AB) and has been swinging the bat well at Triple-A as well.
Garrett Mitchell just went deep again for the Sounds! For what it’s worth, the pitcher has a 2.12 ERA over 17 IP in MLB this year and is only down to manage innings count. pic.twitter.com/IyMiFCVLFK

Mitchell has four home runs and has swiped three bases in 11 games at Nashville while hitting .310. While Christian Yelich and Jackson Chourio are firmly entrenched in two of the outfield spots, Mitchell could represent an upgrade over Blake Perkins or Sal Frelick.
Mitchell's combination of speed and power is enough to warrant adding him right now with the hope that he wins that third outfielder job. He's just 3% rostered in Yahoo! leagues.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: Samuel Basallo might be the best hitter in the minors right now, and he has catcher eligibility.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: Painter's last two starts don't give a ton of confidence that he is ready to be in the majors. It may not even be before the All-Star break before we see him, but that does not mean we are in stash territory. The good news is, […]
