Carson Williams Worth Picking Up Following Recent Promotion?
Tampa Bay Rays shortstop Carson Williams was recently promoted for his second stint in the majors this season.

Edwin Arroyo Worth Stashing Ahead of Anticipated MLB Debut?
Cincinnati Reds shortstop prospect Edwin Arroyo continues to hit the ball incredibly well at Triple-A, and he's worth stashing in fantasy baseball ahead of his eventual MLB debut.

Roki Sasaki Emerging as Worthy Waiver-Wire Option After Eight-Strikeout Effort
Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Roki Sasaki, who is only rostered in 34% of Yahoo leagues at the moment, should garner more attention after his best outing of the year in Sunday's 10-1 defeat over the crosstown-rival Los Angeles Angels.

Mets Hope Francisco Lindor Can Return in a Month
The New York Mets are hoping that All-Star shortstop Francisco Lindor (calf) can return in around a month, but they aren't putting a timetable on it, according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post. Lindor's strained left calf is healing, but he has yet to be cleared to start baseball activities. Fantasy managers are […]
Brice Matthews Still Worth Targeting Off the Waiver Wire?
Houston Astros outfielder Brice Matthews has been quiet at the plate in May and may no longer be worth holding in mixed fantasy leagues.

Sal Frelick Heating Up at the Plate, Widely Available in Fantasy Leagues
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Sal Frelick doesn't have game-changing power or speed, and he got off to a slow start offensively in 2026.

Spencer Schwellenbach Worth an Add Amid Looming Return?
Atlanta Braves right-hander Spencer Schwellenbach (elbow), who is currently on the 60-day injured list after having surgery to remove bone spurs from his right elbow, is reportedly close to starting a throwing program and is worth a look on the waiver wire as a pitcher to stash.

Minnesota Twins right-hander Bailey Ober wasn't nearly as good on Sunday against the Milwaukee Brewers as he was his last time out on May 12, when he threw a complete-game shutout with only two hits allowed and seven strikeouts against the Miami Marlins. Ober didn't even have a quality start on Sunday in the team's […]

Is Kade Anderson Entering Must-Stash Territory?
Seattle Mariners top pitching prospect Kade Anderson has fully put himself in must-stash territory, given his incredible start to his first professional campaign. Last year's No. 3 overall pick was sent to Double-A to begin his professional career and has been nothing short of incredible.

St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez has enjoyed an impressive power surge over the past week at Triple-A Memphis and is quickly climbing to the top of the stash rankings among both hitters and pitchers.

Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Luis Lara has enjoyed a dominant start to the Triple-A campaign and is quickly knocking on the MLB door.
