Carlos Lagrange Sharp in Move to Bullpen, On Verge of MLB Promotion?
New York Yankees right-handed pitching prospect Carlos Lagrange has been quite productive in his transition to the bullpen and is quickly approaching his MLB debut much sooner than anticipated. The hard-throwing right-hander began the 2026 season in the team's Triple-A starting rotation, but endured some growing pains facing the top hitters in the minor leagues. Over 49 innings of work, Lagrange posted a 4.41 ERA with a modest 1.33 WHIP. However, since moving to a relief role, the No. 73-ranked prospect on MLB.com has looked quite comfortable, logging 9 2/3 innings (three outings) to the tune of a 2.79 ERA, 0.93 WHIP, with a 15:3 K:BB. While he will likely not compete for save opportunities in the Bronx, he could emerge as a go-to high-leverage option and hold high-end upside in holds leagues. For now, Lagrange is a worthy stash target in deeper 12+ team leauges that reward holds as he could debut ahead of the All-Star break.
