Colt Emerson Continues to Knock on MLB Door Despite Minor Injury Setback
Seattle Mariners shortstop prospect Colt Emerson remains a high-end stash option despite suffering a minor foot injury. Earlier this week, Emerson took a foul ball off his foot (on April 4) but fortunately avoided a major injury. The top prospect underwent X-rays, all of which came back negative. He returned to game action on April 7 and quickly found his footing, going 2-for-3 with an RBI and two stolen bases. Overall, through eight games with Triple-A Tacoma this season, Emerson has held a dominant .310/.355/.483 slash line with two doubles, one home run, and two stolen bases. Last summer, Emerson spent most of his time with High-A and Double-A before earning a short six-game stint in Triple-A. Given that Emerson recently inked a massive eight-year, $95 million contract with the Mariners and was promoted to the 40-man roster, his MLB debut is quickly approaching. Due to his five-category skill set, he holds high-end stash upside in all 12-team leagues in Week 2 of the fantasy season.
