PROSPECT: Matt Mervis, 1B, Chicago Cubs
ANALYSIS: Matt Mervis has been swinging a hot stick over the last couple of weeks. In his last 11 games, Mervis has cranked four home runs with a .289/.407/.600 slash line.
However, that does come with a 33.3% strikeout rate which has been an issue at times this season, both in the Majors and minors. If and when he gets recalled, Mervis could provide a nice power boost.
