Henry Bolte Flashing Speed and Contact, Worth Monitoring on Waiver Wire
Athletics outfielder Henry Bolte has continued to impress during his rookie season, hitting .300 over his last seven games while building momentum at the major-league level. The Athletics' No. 5 prospect has raised his season batting average to .288 and has already stolen four bases in just 17 games since making his debut on May 13. Bolte's speed has translated immediately, and his 99th-percentile sprint speed gives him plenty of fantasy appeal. He has also shown an ability to make consistent contact while driving the ball with authority. Bolte owns a 50 percent hard-hit rate, a mark that sits well above league average. The sample size remains small, but his combination of speed, contact ability, and emerging production makes him a player worth monitoring closely in fantasy leagues.
