Cincinnati Reds outfield prospect Hector Rodriguez produced a strong first half at Triple-A Louisville, finishing 11-for-33 (.333) with five home runs over his final nine games before the break. For the season, the Reds' fifth-ranked prospect is slashing .284/.364/.546 with 23 home runs and six steals for the Bats. The left-handed hitter spent 53 games at Louisville last year, and though his strikeout rate increased from 16.5 percent to 20.2 percent from 2025 to 2026, his walk rate also increased from 5.2 percent to 10.4 percent, with both stats now sitting right around the Triple-A average. Though he logged at least 12 steals each season from 2022 through 2025, it isn't something fantasy managers looking for a stash option should count on, but his power is. With a barrel rate of 10.6 percent (81st percentile) and a max exit velocity of 113.7 mph (96th percentile), the power is legit. Fantasy managers in deeper 12-team leagues should consider stashing the 22-year-old who could help with home runs and RBI upon his call-up, which could happen by mid-August.--Jarod Rupp

Justin Thomas has put together a rock-solid season, recording eight top-25 finishes and only one missed cut through 13 events. He now turns to The Open, a tournament where he has struggled throughout his career. In nine appearances, Thomas has only one finish inside the top 30, coming in 2019 at Royal Portrush. This year's event at Royal Birkdale will reward precision and accuracy, areas where Thomas has put up mixed results. He ranks 55th in driving accuracy, 68th in putting (+0.089), and second around the greens (+0.532), but his iron play has been a concern, ranking 104th on approach (-0.053). At $7,500 on DraftKings, Thomas brings upside, but his history at this event makes him a true boom-or-bust option.--Dakota Legg - RotoBaller

Seattle Mariners outfield prospect Lazaro Montes was recently promoted to Triple-A Tacoma, and although it didn't take long (five games) for him to show off his power with a majestic 436-foot home run, the 6-foot-5 slugger's swing-and-miss tendency has been exploited at the minors' highest level. Through six games and 31 plate appearances for the Rainiers, the Mariners' third-ranked prospect has struck out 13 times, which is a 41.9 percent rate (12.9 percent walk rate). Still, if the left-handed hitter can get that down to a more tolerable level, he could make a major league debut later in the second half of the season, and his prodigious power should land him on the stash radar for fantasy. Home run-needy managers should monitor his progress, and if he gets on a roll, the 21-year-old could quickly become a top stash for his power potential.--Jarod Rupp

Since finishing T12 at The Memorial, Adam Scott has struggled to find his form again, recording a missed cut and finishes of 65th and T66 in his last three events. He now looks to get back on track at The Open, where he has recorded 10 top-25 finishes in 25 appearances. Success at Royal Birkdale will rely on precision off the tee, elite approach play, and strong putting on the small 5,200-square-foot greens. Scott ranks seventh on approach (+0.610 strokes per round), 56th off the tee (+0.153), and 90rd in driving accuracy, but his short game remains a concern, ranking 107th in putting (-0.148) and 101st around the greens (-0.082). At $6,500 on DraftKings, Scott offers some upside through his ball striking, but he will need improvement around and on the greens to make the weekend.--Dakota Legg - RotoBaller

Chicago Cubs pitching prospect Jaxon Wiggins returned to the mound at Triple-A Iowa this past Friday, a welcome sight for a big league staff that could use some reinforcements. The right-hander is returning from a stint on the injured list due to elbow inflammation, and Friday's outing was his first appearance for Iowa since early April. The Cubs' top-ranked pitching prospect showed some rust Friday, walking three batters and throwing a wild pitch in only 2 2/3 innings of work, but was also able to strike out four batters with his fastball touching 98 mph. The Cubs have multiple starters on the injured list, so if Wiggins can increase his workload and look a bit sharper over his next couple of starts, the 6-foot-6 hurler could be in the big leagues sometime in August. With big strikeout potential, the 24-year-old quickly becomes a stash consideration who could prove to be a sneaky fantasy producer for the stretch run.--Jarod Rupp

Collin Morikawa continued his strong season at the Travelers Championship, finishing solo third after gaining more than 6.9 strokes on approach and 2.8 putting. He now turns to The Open, where he won in his debut in 2021, though he has followed that up with three missed cuts and a T16 finish in 2024. Success at Royal Birkdale will come down to precision off the tee and elite approach play, two areas where Morikawa excels. He ranks 25th off the tee (+0.402 strokes per round), second on approach (+0.842), and fifth in driving accuracy. His short game has been better as of late as well, gaining over 2.4 strokes putting in each of his last four starts. At $8,700 on DraftKings, Morikawa offers elite upside thanks to his top-tier approach play.--Dakota Legg - RotoBaller

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey has played in at least 16 games five different times since 2018, finishing as the fantasy RB1 in three such seasons and never lower than the RB3. One of the premier playmakers of his generation, McCaffrey has been a true difference-maker both as a runner and in the receiving game, leading to some astronomical touch counts over the years. Unfortunately, the same workload that has allowed him to dominate for fantasy has taken a substantial toll on his body, and three times in that same eight-year span, McCaffrey has seen his season cut short after playing fewer than eight games. Now 30 years old and coming off the heaviest workload of his career, the 2017 first-round pick is the embodiment of risk/reward in 2026 drafts. With Brian Robinson Jr. departing in free agency, the depth chart behind McCaffrey has been thinned to rookie Kaelon Black and 2025 fifth-rounder Jordan James, and while keeping the four-time All-Pro fresh and healthy remains a priority, the team is simply better with McCaffrey on the field. Even with injury risk baked thoroughly into his draft cost, the bull case for McCaffrey is as strong as any player in the league, and he remains RotoBaller's RB3 for 2026.--Patrick McGrath

San Francisco Giants designated hitter Bryce Eldridge reached the break at .271/.364/.468 with eight home runs, 28 runs, and 20 RBI in 217 plate appearances. Six of those homers came over his last 30 games. Yahoo managers have rostered Eldridge in just 22% of leagues. The power is not hiding. Eldridge carries a 92.3 mph average exit velocity, 54.4% hard-hit rate, and 12.5% barrel rate, and his .504 expected slugging percentage is better than the real mark. He has also trimmed his strikeout rate to 24.4% after sitting at 35.1% during his brief 2025 debut. There is no speed here, and first-base-only fantasy eligibility makes the roster fit a little tighter. Still, the bat belongs in deeper leagues. RotoBaller ranks Eldridge 72nd for Week 16 and recommends him in 15-team formats. He is a high-upside add for managers who need home runs.--Bruno Mulé

Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Cameron Carr notched 23 points on 8-for-18 shooting with three triples, adding two assists, one rebound, and one block in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 99-85 Las Vegas Summer League win over the Clippers. The No. 24 pick has been the story of Los Angeles' summer, and he closed this one with eight straight points to break the game open. He's playing through a right thumb contusion that cost him a game against Dallas last week. The one rebound in 29 minutes is the tell. Carr is a pure scorer right now, and on a Lakers team that runs its offense through Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves, a rookie wing earns minutes by defending and rebounding, not by getting shots. The scoring alone won't put him on the floor.--Brian Dailisan

Since withdrawing with a hand injury at the Canadian Open, Brooks Koepka has struggled to regain his form, missing the cut at both the U.S. Open and the Scottish Open. He now turns to The Open, where he has recorded four top-10 finishes, though he has not finished better than T43 since 2021. Success at Royal Birkdale will rely on precision off the tee, elite approach play, and strong putting on the small 5,200-square-foot greens. Koepka ranks 49th in strokes gained off the tee (+0.183 per round), eighth on approach (+0.606), and 46th around the green (+0.143). The concerns come with the putter, where he ranks 114th (-0.199), and his driving accuracy, where he sits just 125th on Tour. Koepka has a long history of elevating his game in the majors, but with his recent form, he is a little harder to trust at $7,600 on DraftKings.--Dakota Legg - RotoBaller

Los Angeles Dodgers outfield prospect James Tibbs III capped off a highly productive first half with a mini three-game hit streak in which he went 6-for-12 (.500), including a double and a stolen base. Notably, the Dodgers' ninth-ranked prospect also showed great improvement in his strikeout rate as of late, recording just three strikeouts over his last seven games across 27 plate appearances, which was only an 11.1 percent rate compared to a 26.1 percent rate before that. The left-handed hitter heads into the break with a strong .289/.406/.553 slash line with 21 home runs and a 16.3 percent walk rate, while his 74 runs scored and 71 RBI both rank second at Triple-A so far this year. A debut in the majors is starting to feel overdue, though it still may take an injury or trade to make it happen. Either way, look for a debut sometime in the second half, and given how productive he's been, if the former first-rounder were hitting anywhere in the potent L.A. lineup, he'd be a viable fantasy asset in deeper leagues, so managers with an NA spot should consider stashing the 23-year-old ahead of an eventual call-up.--Jarod Rupp

In his second season with the Minnesota Vikings, running back Aaron Jones Sr. was limited to only 548 rushing yards and two scores on the ground while missing five games with a variety of injuries, including a hamstring issue that landed him on injured reserve. An additional 199 receiving yards and one more touchdown through the air allowed him to maintain a serviceable fantasy floor when he was available, but along with former undrafted free agent Jordan Mason, he formed one of the less inspired running back committees in 2025. The Vikings finished in the bottom half of the league in terms of both rushing yards and touchdowns, making it all the more surprising that the team opted to make so few changes to the room for 2026. Minnesota spent a sixth-round pick on Wake Forest's Demond Claiborne, but at only 195 pounds, his role could be limited to little more than change-of-pace duties as a rookie. The offensive line should see better health in 2026, and free agent acquisition Kyler Murray represents a dramatic potential improvement at the quarterback position, so the Vikings could be banking on better cohesion and functionality to lift the offense as a whole, and with it the running game. No longer a player to actively target in fantasy drafts, Jones has fallen to RotoBaller's RB38 for 2026. Still, he should continue to provide usable value from the flex spot for as long as he can hold off Claiborne as the team's primary pass-catching back.--Patrick McGrath

Colorado Rockies shortstop Ezequiel Tovar dragged a .200/.243/.330 line into the break, with eight home runs, 32 runs, 32 RBI, and five steals in 341 plate appearances. His final 10 games were not much better at 5-for-31, although two of those hits left the yard. Colorado had him batting eighth or ninth during the final series. Not everything underneath is quite as ugly. Tovar owns a .221 expected average and .367 expected slugging percentage, both above the actual marks, and he hit 26 home runs in 2024. The 86 strikeouts are still hard to ignore, especially now that the lineup spot has cratered. RotoBaller ranks him 70th for Week 16 and recommends him in 12-team leagues. At 36% rostered on Yahoo, Tovar is a reasonable rebound add for managers looking for middle-infield power, but he remains a poor fit for anyone chasing batting average.--Bruno Mulé

The former Division II standout has been Oklahoma City's steadiest presence through an 0-3 summer, running the offense with the pace that made him a first-team All-Big Ten selection at Iowa, where he averaged 19.8 points and 4.4 assists. The NBA's draft profile likens him to Ty Jerome and flags the same slow adjustment those late-blooming college guards needed before they became rotation pieces, which is the fantasy read as well.--Brian Dailisan

He has also played well in majors this season, recording a T3, T7, and missing one cut. On LIV, Hatton ranks 10th in strokes gained on approach (+0.22 per round), 26th in putting (+0.05), and 16th around the green (+0.09).

Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Dalton Rushing hit the All-Star break at .254/.337/.475 with 10 home runs, 30 runs, and 30 RBI in 181 at-bats. That is useful power at a thin position, especially with Rushing still available in 81% of Yahoo leagues. Will Smith (neck inflammation) is not expected back until late July or early August, leaving Rushing with more runway behind the plate. The home runs have support. Rushing owns an 11.6% barrel rate and 43.4% hard-hit rate, and his .255 expected average nearly matches the real number. He has also cut his strikeout rate from 37.4% last year to 25.9%. Smith will take back the primary job once healthy, so this is not a standard one-catcher add. RotoBaller ranks Rushing 91st for Week 16 and recommends him in 15-team leagues. That works. He also belongs in two-catcher formats, where 10-homer pop is hard to leave sitting around.--Bruno Mulé

Denver Broncos wide receiver Pat Bryant missed a pair of games late in the 2025 season with a hamstring injury and a serious concussion, and he was forced to prematurely exit both of the team's playoff games, but he had shown notable growth near the end of his rookie campaign, with his involvement steadily on the rise. Over his final eight regular-season games, he was on a full-season pace of 55 receptions for 706 yards, and although he was on the field for only 12 total postseason snaps, he was targeted on exactly one-third of those plays, beginning both games as an obvious focal point of the Broncos' game plan. Denver's high-profile trade for Jaylen Waddle limits Bryant's opportunity for a true year-two breakout, and with veteran Courtland Sutton still on the team, the 2025 third-round pick will likely be left competing with Troy Franklin for meaningful work in three-receiver sets. However, quarterback Bo Nix threw the ball more than any player in the league last season, so the opportunity could exist for that third receiver spot to still hold fantasy value. Bryant is currently RotoBaller's WR76, but when training camps open at the end of the month, his positional battle with Franklin will be one to watch.--Patrick McGrath

Oklahoma City Thunder center Aday Mara tallied 14 points on 6-for-6 shooting, seven rebounds, and six assists in 25 minutes during Tuesday's 106-103 Las Vegas Summer League loss to Denver. The Spanish big man was flawless from the floor but shot only 1-for-5 at the line, an issue that follows him from Michigan. The passing is the real story: six assists from a 7-foot-3 center is unusual, and it fits a Thunder offense that runs actions through its bigs. Bennett Stirtz led Oklahoma City with 22 points as the team fell to 0-3. Mara's path to minutes runs through Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein, though, so his rookie fantasy value depends on someone ahead of him missing time.--Brian Dailisan

Milwaukee Brewers corner infield prospect Luke Adams finished off the first half with a flurry of production, going 7-for-15 (.467) with a double, a home run, three steals, and a 3:1 BB:K over the final four games before the break. The Brewers' 12th-ranked prospect will head into the second half with a .263/.412/.571 slash line with 11 home runs and seven steals in 41 games at Triple-A Nashville. His .983 OPS is good enough to put him in the top 10 out of all Triple-A hitters with at least 150 plate appearances, and if not for missing a month and a half early in the 2026 campaign, the 6-foot-4 slugger might have made his MLB debut by now. Nevertheless, the 22-year-old should get that opportunity in the second half, and with chase, barrel, and swinging-strike rates all ranking 84th percentile or better, there's plenty of fantasy intrigue here, not to mention a max exit velocity of 113.3 mph (94th percentile). Managers in very deep 12+ team leagues looking for power should consider stashing the right-handed hitter ahead of an eventual call-up.--Jarod Rupp

St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Alec Burleson reached the break at .273/.337/.468 with 15 home runs and 67 RBI, and the damage could have been worse. Statcast has him at a .294 expected average and .540 expected slugging percentage. He also finished with 19.7 expected homers, nearly five more than the real total. That is a loud gap for a hitter already producing. Burleson has not sold out to get there. His strikeout rate sits at 15.1%, while the hard-hit rate jumped to 48.7% and the barrel rate to 11.6%, both career highs. Left-handers are still the problem, holding him to a .195 average, but St. Louis kept him in the lineup and used him at first base in 91 of 94 games.

With training camps set to open at the end of the month, opportunities could soon begin to arise for some of the veteran free agents who remain unsigned, and a player near the top of the available list of running backs is Najee Harris. The former Pro Bowler began his career with four straight 1,000-yard campaigns for the Pittsburgh Steelers, but how much is left in the tank remains unknown after he tore his Achilles only three games into his 2025 stint with the Los Angeles Chargers. Harris signed a one-year deal with the Chargers last offseason, but a bizarre eye injury limited his availability throughout training camp, and he handled only 15 carries before his season came to an unceremonious ending. With the start of padded practices in training camp comes the unfortunate reality of injury risk, and should a team face an unexpected depth chart shake-up, Harris could be one of the first running backs on standby. Currently RotoBaller's RB69, the 28-year-old veteran still has a chance to work his way into the closing rounds of 2026 drafts.--Patrick McGrath

His 12.4% barrel rate is better than last season, and a .414 expected slugging percentage is close to the .431 result. The average has no such safety net. Statcast puts him at .205, and he hit .202 in June before going homerless in 39 July plate appearances. OBP leagues can live with the walks. Standard formats feel the damage more.

With Seattle Seahawks rookies reporting to training camp on Friday, all eyes will be on running back Jadarian Price, and NFL Insider Adam Schefter believes the team's 2026 first-round pick will play a major role in filling what he considers the Seahawks' most obvious hole. The Super Bowl champions return 20 of 22 starters, but the most notable absence is Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III, who signed a three-year deal with the Kansas City Chiefs in free agency. Compounding the situation is the fact that Zach Charbonnet tore his ACL in a January playoff game and may not be available for a meaningful stretch at the start of the season. The Seahawks signed former Packer Emanuel Wilson to a one-year deal, and George Holani remains with the team after stepping into a depth role following Charbonnet's injury, but Price has the highest ceiling of the group and could rise quickly to the top of the depth chart when the full team gathers for training camp at the end of the month. At RotoBaller's RB26, Price is a player to target in the middle rounds of drafts, and if he is able to capitalize on his early-season opportunity, he could prove to be one of fantasy's best values in 2026.--Patrick McGrath

Tampa Bay Rays relief pitcher Bryan Baker hit the break with 25 saves, a 1.73 ERA, and a 0.83 WHIP, then recorded the final out of the American League shutout in the July 14 All-Star Game. The spring committee talk feels ancient now. Baker is tied for second in the majors in saves, opponents are batting .150 against him, and Tampa Bay has no reason to touch the ninth inning. This is not just a hot run. His fastball is averaging 97.1 mph, his strikeout rate sits at 29.3%, and the changeup he now throws nearly as often as the heater has limited batters to a .137 average. The only reason to shop Baker is that his value may never be higher. Even that feels forced. He has the job, the stuff, and a first-place club creating chances.

The former Razorback led all scorers and finally found his stroke after a 4-for-14 clunker in his previous outing. Emanuel Sharp backed him with 23 points, but nobody else on the roster kept pace in a 32-point rout. The one blemish: Acuff committed five turnovers, matching his assist total.
