Kade Anderson on Fast Track to MLB Debut?
Seattle Mariners starting pitching prospect Kade Anderson could be on a fast track to making his MLB debut. Typically, college pitchers are the quickest to make their MLB debut -- faster than college hitters, and faster than all prep players in general. Not only was Anderson drafted out of college last summer, but he also has elite draft capital as a former No. 3 overall pick. Furthermore, he's also pitching incredibly well this season, maintaining a 0.37 ERA and 1.13 FIP with 14.05 K/9, 1.48 BB/9, and a 46.7% ground ball rate. He hasn't allowed a home run yet, either. We'd be a bit surprised to see Anderson jump straight from Double-A to MLB, so there's still a little time before he makes his debut. However, fantasy managers shouldn't wait. Stashing Anderson now is the right move, because we do expect to see him in the majors this year, and he has the potential to rack up strikeouts, limit walks and home runs, and pitch deep into games for the Mariners. He currently ranks #11 among starting pitching prospects in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy baseball rankings.
