Edwin Arroyo an Intriguing Stash Option as MLB Debut Looms
Cincinnati Reds infield prospect Edwin Arroyo owns the seventh-highest batting average of all Triple-A players with at least 30 games played, currently sitting at .345 after a sizzling start to the season. The Reds' third-ranked prospect is doing a bit of everything this season, slugging a whopping .592, drawing walks at an 8.8 percent rate (.409 OBP), and has stolen eight bases through 43 games thus far. Despite this being his first taste of Triple-A pitching, the switch-hitter is striking out at just a 14.6 percent clip, the best rate of his entire minor league career. A torn labrum caused him to miss the entire 2024 season, which has delayed his development, but he put together a strong Double-A campaign last year (.284/.345/.371) and has continued to progress, now on the doorstep to the majors. With a tantalizing blend of contact (8.7 percent swinging-strike rate), power, and speed, the 22-year-old is worth stashing in most category leagues as his MLB debut draws near.
