Owen Caissie a Trade Candidate?
Owen Caissie over the coming weeks as the team looks to add at the July 31 trade deadline. Caissie is now Chicago's top-ranked prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and is sporting a .961 OPS in 73 games for Triple-A Iowa. Before this week's All-Star break, the 23-year-old hit .400 with eight home runs, 10 RBI, 10 walks and a 1.676 OPS in nine games. Caissie is currently blocked at the big-league level, but if the Cubs don't trade him this summer, he figures to make his MLB debut next year, especially if the Cubs cannot retain star outfielder Kyle Tucker in free agency. Caissie should already be stashed in all dynasty/keeper leagues. His ETA to the big leagues figures to be fast-tracked if he's traded.
