Chicago White Sox infield/outfield prospect Sam Antonacci holds high-end stash upside among hitting prospects. Reports last weekend suggested that the White Sox were set to call up Antonacci to the big leagues, but since this transaction has yet to occur, the team may feel he needs additional development in Triple-A. Entering the season, Antonacci was […]


Didier Fuentes Entering Must-Stash Territory Amid Dominant Stretch at Triple-A

Atlanta Braves right-handed pitching prospect Didier Fuentes is seeing his value as a stash candidate soar in Week 3 of the fantasy season.

Arizona Diamondbacks outfield prospect Ryan Waldschmidt remains an elite stash option in all standard leagues in Week 3 of the fantasy baseball season. The 23-year-old nearly broke camp with the MLB roster but was optioned to Triple-A Reno to begin the 2026 campaign. With Reno Waldschmidt, he has looked more than comfortable, which suggests he […]


River Ryan Continues to Hold Sneaky Stash Value Among Pitching Prospects

Los Angeles Dodgers right-handed pitching prospect River Ryan continues to hold sneaky stash value in Week 3 of the fantasy baseball season. Ryan underwent Tommy John surgery in August of 2024 and has been on the shelf ever since. He participated in spring training and was quite effective, logging 9 2/3 innings with a 1.86 […]

San Francisco first base prospect Bryce Eldridge remains an elite stash option in all standard formats in Week 3 of the fantasy campaign.

Charlie Condon Continues to Knock on MLB Door in Week 3

Colorado Rockies first base prospect Charlie Condon continues to remain a high-end stash target among hitting prospects in Week 3 of the fantasy baseball season. Condon was given an opportunity to break camp with the MLB roster, but fell short in the competition as TJ Rumfield has served as the primary first baseman. However, during […]


Kaelen Culpepper Worth a Deep-League Stash?

Minnesota Twins infield prospect Kaelen Culpepper has yet to slow down since moving up to Triple-A St. Paul and is climbing the stash ranks in Week 3 of the fantasy baseball season. Through his first 14 games at the top level of the Twins system, the infielder has posted a solid .250/.318/.417 slash line with […]


Max Clark Not Slowing Down at Triple-A, Path to MLB Debut Remains Clear

Detroit Tigers top prospect Max Clark has yet to slow down during his first taste of Triple-A and is quickly approaching his MLB debut. After spending most of the 2025 campaign with High-A and Double-A, the Tigers opted to send their No.1 outfield prospect to Triple-A to begin the 2026 campaign. Through his first 14 […]


Robby Snelling Viewed as Top Stash Candidate After 12-Strikeout Effort

Miami Marlins starting pitching prospect Robby Snelling remains a high-priority stash target following his dominant 12-strikeout effort at Triple-A. On April 10, Snelling looked near unhittable at Jacksonville, tossing five shutout frames with two hits and four walks, while racking up 12 punchouts. Over his first two outings of the campaign (eight total innings), the […]


James Tibbs III Emerging as Top Hitter to Stash

Los Angeles Dodgers outfield prospect James Tibbs III continues to dominate at the Triple-A level and is quickly entering must-stash territory. Even though the Dodgers' outfield is filled at the moment, Tibbs has looked more than comfortable at Triple-A Oklahoma City to begin the regular season. Through 15 games, the former 13th overall pick has […]


Payton Tolle Carries High-End Stash Upside Entering Week 3

Boston Red Sox pitching prospect Payton Tolle remains a must-stash candidate in Week 3 of the fantasy baseball season.

Max Clark - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Top Prospects for 2026

When Is Max Clark Getting Called Up? Fantasy Baseball Prospect Outlook (Week 3 Update)

Detroit Tigers outfield prospect Max Clark was unlikely to break camp with the major league roster in spring training, but he has turned into a dominant start at Triple-A, which could open the door for a much-earlier-than-expected debut. While fellow top prospect infielder Kevin McGonigle stole most of the headlines this spring, Clark possesses just […]


Bryce Eldridge - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, MLB DFS Lineup Picks

When Is Bryce Eldridge Getting Called Up? Fantasy Baseball Prospect Outlook (Week 3 Update)

San Francisco Giants top prospect Bryce Eldridge made his MLB debut late in the 2025 campaign but was unable to crack the Opening Day roster in 2026, following an underwhelming showing in spring training.

Charlie Condon Prospect Graphic

When Is Charlie Condon Getting Called Up? Fantasy Baseball Prospect Outlook (Week 3 Update)

Colorado Rockies first base/outfield prospect Charlie Condon made headlines this spring but was unable to crack the team's Opening Day roster.

George Lombard Jr. Flashing Elite Upside in Minor Leagues

New York Yankees shortstop prospect George Lombard Jr. is looking quite comfortable at the Double-A level and is making a strong case to make his MLB debut later this season. The team's No. 1-ranked prospect, according to MLB.com (and No. 32 overall), has held a .476/.522/.952 line over his first five games with Double-A this […]
