Clayton Beeter is a fantasy baseball SP prospect sleeper and minor leaguer to know. Read our MLB prospects outlooks for fantasy baseball rookies and call-ups.
PROSPECT: Clayton Beeter, SP, New York Yankees
ANALYSIS: The Dodgers drafted Beeter in the second round of the 2020 draft out of Texas Tech. He posted impressive strikeout rates in 2021 and early 2022 with the Dodgers, though his control has been an issue. The Dodgers made him the sole return for the Yankees in the Joey Gallo deal last season.
This year, the Yankees have allowed Beeter to work deeper into games, and his command has significantly improved as the season has carried on. He has a 9% walk rate in June, which would be the lowest of his career by far. His 38% strikeout rate in that time has been incredible as well.
Working with an elite-spinning fastball that sits in the mid-90s and touches 98. His slider is incredible and he has the ability to vary it from a short, sharp pitch to a sweeper. His changeup is a below-average pitch overall, but he's improved the location of it significantly, which has allowed it to at least generate weak contact.
VERDICT: Beeter is going to be jumping up midseason prospect lists, and if you want to own a share, you may need to get him now. He's a definite own in deep dynasty leagues, and in shallow dynasty leagues, he should at least be considered for a roster slot.
