New York Yankees starting pitching prospect Carlos Langrange has emerged as a top fantasy stash heading into June. Langrange has an iffy 4.41 ERA, but we're very impressed by his 11.57 K/9.

Troy Melton Emerging as a Breakout Candidate to Target on the Waiver Wire

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Troy Melton had the start of his 2026 season delayed by an elbow injury. However, the 25-year-old made his return to the MLB mound on May 24 and has impressed in his first two starts of the year, allowing just two earned runs across 12 2/3 innings pitched.
