Kevin Alcantara Worthy of a Deep-League Stash?
Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Kevin Alcantara has enjoyed a hot start to the Triple-A regular season in terms of power production and is quickly making a case to join the MLB roster. Through the first 20 games of the Iowa Cubs' regular season, Alcantara has hit four doubles and gone deep five times. During this stretch, he has carried a .213/.314/.587 line with a .901 OPS. Last summer, Alcantara spent most of his time in Iowa and had a brief taste of MLB-level play. Through 102 games with the top club in the minor leagues, Alcantara held a .266/.349/.470 line with 17 round-trippers. Over a short 10-game stint with the Cubs, Alcantara went 4-for-11 with a stolen base. While the Cubs outfield is filled at the moment following Seiya Suzuki's return to injury, Alcantara is worth looking at as he could be the next man up following another injury. His high-end power makes him a viable stash option in deeper 15-team leagues with five-outfielder spots.
