Is Karson Milbrandt a Must-Stash as he Climbs Minor-League Ladder?
Miami Marlins pitching prospect Karson Milbrandt has impressed at every level and challenge placed before him this season. The 6-foot-2 right-hander continues to progress in the Marlins' minor league system and is seeing his fantasy value soar. At his latest stop at Triple-A Jacksonville, he has yet to record a decision in three starts but has dazzled with a 1.20 ERA and 15 punchouts (over 15 innings). Before that, at Double-A Pensacola, Milbrandt was dominant, posting a 4-1 record and a 1.34 ERA with 70 strikeouts over 47 innings of work. With the Marlins needing depth at the major-league level in their starting rotation with Eury Perez and Janson Junk both on the 15-day injured list, Milbrandt could find his way to Miami shortly. His high upside and prolific strikeout rate make him an appealing stash option for fantasy managers in deeper leagues.
