Is Joshua Baez Nearing his MLB Debut?
St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez has flashed his raw power at Triple-A and could be slowly progressing toward his MLB debut. The Cardinals gave Baez an opportunity to break camp in spring training, despite not logging a single at-bat with the Triple-A club, but he was unable to claim a starting role. Last summer, Baez spent most of his time with Double-A Springfield, where he posted a .271/.374/.509 line with 16 home runs and 34 stolen bases. Through his first 23 contests at the Triple-A level, Baez has gone deep six times and swiped five bags. However, he posted a modest .236 AVG. Fantasy managers should continue to keep an eye on his production as he could emerge as an elite stash option given his five-category upside. While the Cardinals' outfield appears full at the moment, Baez is worth stashing in deep 12+ team leagues, as he could become an immediate fantasy option given his rotisserie skill set once he earns the call.
