A.J. Ewing is a fantasy baseball prospect sleeper, dynasty stash, and minor leaguer to know for Week 8 (2025). Read the fantasy baseball rookie outlooks.
PROSPECT: A.J. Ewing, OF, New York Mets
CURRENT LEVEL: High-A
2025 STATS: 33 G, .381/.477/.587, 2 HR, 27 RBI, 27 R, 27 SB, 15.9% BB%, 15.2% K%, .451 BABIP, .486 wOBA, 194 wRC+
ANALYSIS: Ewing was the Mets' fourth-round pick in 2023. He opted to sign with the Mets, forgoing his commitment to Alabama. The decision has paid dividends for both sides as Ewing has arguably been the best hitter in Minor League Baseball this year.
Drafted as a shortstop, Ewing hasn't played a game at the position in the minors. The bulk of his appearances have come in center field, where he runs well and showcases a solid glove. At the plate, he has excellent contact skills with above-average bat speed and the ability to crank out extra-base hits. Ewing's speed adds an extra element to his profile.
A.J. Ewing has been named the SAL Player of the Week.
He hit .500 (9-18), with five runs scored, six stolen bases, three RBI, .609 OBP and 1.331 OPS for the week.

Last week, Ewing went 9-for-18 with two doubles, a triple, and three RBI. He also drew five walks, struck out four times, and stole six bases. The 20-year-old currently owns a 10-game hitting streak and has reached base safely in 22 consecutive contests.
