Braxton Garrett Not in Contention to Earn MLB Promotion?

According to Fish on First, Miami Marlins left-handed pitcher Braxton Garrett is still listed to start on Tuesday evening for Triple-A Jacksonville, which could prevent him from replacing Chris Paddack in the MLB rotation on Friday. Earlier on Tuesday, Paddack was designated for assignment, opening his next turn in the rotation on Friday. While Garrett […]

Sneaky Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups, Buys: Week 6 - Hot Pitchers To Sustain Success?

The MLB season is in full swing, and we have now turned the calendar to May. However, even though the first month is behind us, there is still ample time to make up ground in your rotisserie and identify breakout pitchers before the truly "break out" can boost your team significantly. This week, we will […]


Max Clark Hits Brief Skid at Triple-A Toledo, Still Holding Elite Stash Value?

Detroit Tigers outfield prospect Max Clark has been swinging a cold bat at Triple-A over the last two weeks, but still holds a high-end stash value among the top hitting prospects. Over his last 11 games with Triple-A Toledo, Clark has held a .140/.229/.163 line with just one extra-base hit (one double) and a 12:5 […]


Kade Anderson Turns in Another Stellar Outing, Can he Debut in 2026?

Seattle Mariners left-handed pitching prospect Kade Anderson turned in another stellar outing at Double-A and is making a strong case to make his MLB debut much sooner than previously expected. Anderson joined the Mariners with the third overall selection in last spring's draft but has quickly proven himself more than capable of holding his own […]


Charlie Condon Sees Power Numbers Drop at Triple-A, Cause for Concern?

Colorado Rockies first base/outfield prospect Charlie Condon has seen his power numbers and overall production dip slightly over the last two weeks at Triple-A. However, he remains a top-hitting prospect, as there is still a clear opening for him on the MLB roster. Over his last 11 contests, the former third overall pick has posted […]


Ryan Waldschmidt Still Worth Stashing Amid Triple-A Skid?

Arizona Diamondbacks outfield prospect Ryan Waldschmidt has hit a bit of a skid at Triple-A and has seen his value as a top hitting prospect to stash decline slightly.

Colt Emerson on the Verge of MLB Debut?

Seattle Mariners shortstop prospect Colt Emerson continues to find success at the top level of the Seattle system and remains a high-end hitting prospect to stash in all formats. Over the last seven games at Triple-A Tacoma, Emerson has gone deep twice while swiping one bag with a 12:5 K:BB. Overall, the team's No. 1-ranked […]


Robby Snelling Holds Must-Stash Value After Dominant Nine-Strikeout Effort

Miami Marlins left-handed pitching prospect Robby Snelling enjoyed an impressive bounce-back showing in his most recent start at Triple-A and holds elite stash upside in Week 6 of the fantasy baseball season.

Marlins Demote Agustin Ramirez to Triple-A

The Miami Marlins have demoted catcher Agustin Ramirez to Triple-A Jacksonville, according to Craig Mish. Ramirez had a slow start to his first full season in the big leagues and will head to the top level of the minor leagues to work out his struggles. Over the first 31 games of the campaign, Ramirez has […]


Reds Set to Promote No. 7-Ranked Prospect Chase Petty to Start on Monday

The Cincinnati Reds expect to promote No. 7-ranked prospect Chase Petty to start on Monday evening against the Chicago Cubs. Petty is slated to replace Brandon Williamson in the starting rotation, who was recently shifted to the injured list.

Philadelphia Phillies infield prospect Aidan Miller (back) has yet to take the field this season and is quickly losing stash value. According to a recent report by Todd Zolecki of MLB.com, the team's top infield prospect is "nearing" a return to swinging a bat.

Earlier this week, Senga was shifted to the 15-day injured list, opening up a spot in the starting rotation. While Christian Scott was recalled from Triple-A, Tong is a name to watch closely, […]


James Tibbs III Still Holding High-End Stash Value

Los Angeles Dodgers outfield prospect James Tibbs III has continued to swing a hot bat at Triple-A and is making a strong case to join the MLB roster. Through 27 games with Triple-A Oklahoma City, Tibbs has posted an impressive .291/.408/.699 slash line with seven doubles, 11 home runs, and a stolen base. During this […]


Will Kade Anderson Make his MLB Debut this Season?

Seattle Mariners starting pitching prospect Kade Anderson has enjoyed a dominant start to his professional career and could be making his MLB debut much sooner than expected.

Thomas White Flashing Dominance at Triple-A, Entering Stash Conversation?

Miami Marlins left-handed pitching prospect Thomas White has looked dominant over his first two outings at Triple-A Jacksonville and quickly re-emerged on the stash radar. Through two starts (eight innings), the southpaw has posted a 1.13 ERA with a 0.80 WHIP. He has struck out 14 hitters while allowing just three free passes. The team's […]


Emmanuel Rodriguez Quickly Approaching MLB Promotion?

Minnesota Twins outfield prospect Emmanuel Rodriguez has continued to heat up at Triple-A and is emerging as a sneaky stash candidate in deep formats. Through 22 games at Triple-A, Rodriguez has posted a .253/.412/.533 slash line with a .945 OPS. During this stint, Rodriguez has gone deep six times, tallied three doubles, and swiped three […]


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.
