PROSPECT: Junior Caminero, 3B, Tampa Bay Rays
ERIC CROSS' LATEST PROSPECT RANKING: #1
CALL-UP ETA: May
ANALYSIS: We have a new top dog in these stash rankings and his name is Junior Caminero. After a quad injury cost him the first few weeks of the season, Caminero is doing his best to make up for lost time with three home runs in his first eight games including two on Sunday that registered at 109.7 mph and 106.2 mph off the bat.
With 4 H and 2 HR today, Junior Caminero is now slashing .313/.377/.646 with 3 HR in 8 G since returning from injury.
I'd expect him up within the next two weeks.#RaysUppic.twitter.com/edCbXP53LD

The power upside Caminero brings to the table is nearly unmatched in the minors right now and the long-term upside is a third baseman in the Riley/Devers tier if everything clicks. He should be stashed everywhere right now and I'm betting he's up within the next two weeks.
