Texas Rangers outfielder Wyatt Langford (forearm) will do another forearm strength test on Wednesday, May 20, and if all goes well, he will be cleared to begin swinging a bat two days later and restart his full ramp-up, per MLB.com. Langford has been slow to recover from a Grade 1 right-flexor strain in his forearm after being placed on the 10-day injured list on April 22. He was originally expected to return in mid-May, but at this rate, the power/speed outfielder might be lucky to make it back to the Rangers before the end of the month. The oft-injured former fourth overall pick in 2023 out of the University of Florida made a quick rise to the big leagues and has teased his power/speed skills with 38 homers, 136 RBI, and 41 stolen bases in 268 games in his first two years in the league. Langford has only managed to play in 20 games in 2026, but he remains a must-stash for his multi-category upside in fantasy. He's currently rostered in 88% of Yahoo leagues. If he was dumped by his previous manager, scoop Langford up immediately.--Keith Hernandez

Tampa Bay Rays first baseman Yandy Diaz (hand) is out of Wednesday's lineup versus the division-rival Baltimore Orioles at Tropicana Field after he was hit by a pitch on the hand on Tuesday, according to MLB.com. Ryan Vilade will draw into the lineup at first base and will bat cleanup for the first-place Rays against Orioles right-hander Shane Baz. We'll have an update on Diaz once we know more about the results of his X-rays, but for right now, fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day. The Rays have an off day on Thursday, so hopefully, Diaz will be ready to roll for the start of a big divisional series on Friday in the Bronx against the New York Yankees. The 34-year-old Cuban continues to be an excellent source of batting average for fantasy managers, as he's hitting .316 (55-for-174), and he's added eight homers, 33 RBI, 27 runs scored, and a stolen base in 45 games across 198 plate appearances. Vilade has been solid for Tampa in his 26 games played, going 19-for-60 (.317) with two homers and 13 RBI.--Keith Hernandez

Michael Thorbjornsen has been solid this year, posting five top-25 finishes and just four missed cuts through 13 events. He now turns to the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, where he finished T33 last year in his only previous start. Success at TPC Craig Ranch typically comes down to strong off-the-tee play and approach shots with long irons, both areas where he has been strong. Thorbjornsen ranks 55th in strokes gained off the tee (+0.196 per round) and 13th in proximity from over 200 yards (47'2"), a range that accounted for more than 39% of approach shots here last year. There are still a couple of concerns, including the putter, where he has lost strokes in three of his last four events, as well as on approach, where he ranks 108th on Tour (-0.129 per round). Despite this, he brings strong upside in a weak field and profiles as a solid play at $9,000 on DraftKings.--Dakota Legg - RotoBaller

Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Luis Lara stayed hot on Tuesday, going 2-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base for Triple-A Nashville. He's now produced five multi-hit efforts in his last eight games, going 13-for-29 (.448) during that time, with more walks (10) than strikeouts (six) and four steals to boot. It has raised the switch-hitter's season slash line to .337/.449/.503 with seven home runs, 17 steals, and a 31:25 BB:K through 44 games. The power output is a welcome addition to his fantasy profile after he produced only two home runs in 136 games at Double-A in 2025, and along with strong contact ability (4.7 percent swinging-strike rate) and speed (40-plus steals in '23 and '24), the diminutive Venezuelan looks primed for an MLB debut in the coming weeks. With multi-category potential, the 21-year-old has quickly become a top hitter to stash in most fantasy leagues.--Jarod Rupp

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder/designated hitter Kyle Schwarber (illness) is sitting out for a third straight game due to an illness on Wednesday against the visiting Cincinnati Reds, according to MLB.com. First baseman Bryce Harper will serve as the DH and bat third, while third baseman Alec Bohm will slide over to first and hit cleanup against Reds left-hander Andrew Abbott. Edmundo Sosa is starting at third base and batting seventh for the Phils. The Phillies aren't going to rush Schwarber back into action in the series finale at Citizens Bank Park with a lefty on the mound. The team has an off day coming on Thursday, too, so the left-handed slugger could be back in the starting nine for Friday's series opener against the Cleveland Guardians. Despite missing the last two days, the 33-year-old veteran still leads the majors with 20 home runs. Schwarbs has been especially hot since May 7, going 13-for-43 (.302) with nine homers, a double, 16 RBI, 10 runs, and a steal in 10 games. Fantasy managers can only hope that he can pick up where he left off after he recovers from his illness.--Keith Hernandez

To be very frank, Luke List has been bad this year. Through nine events across multiple different tours, he has just three made cuts and a best finish of T57. He now looks to find anything at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, once again held at TPC Craig Ranch. In five trips to this venue while on Tour, List has two missed cuts and no finish better than T30. Despite the lack of high-end results, he has gained strokes off the tee and with the putter in three straight appearances here. The 41-year-old is desperately searching for form, but at just $6,500 on DraftKings, he can safely be avoided until he shows any signs of a turnaround--Dakota Legg - RotoBaller

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman dramatically ended a cold stretch to help the Dodgers beat the division-rival San Diego Padres at Petco Park on Tuesday night by a score of 5-4. The veteran left-handed slugger went 2-for-4 at the plate with two home runs, three RBI, and two strikeouts. It was a nice way for the 36-year-old to break out of a stretch over his last four games in which he went 0-for-14 with four walks and six strikeouts. The big performance on Tuesday night boosted Freeman's season line to .260/.342/.435 with a .777 OPS, six home runs, 23 RBI, 19 runs scored, and one stolen base across his first 46 games of the 2026 campaign. The former MVP and nine-time All-Star has hit .262 (16-for-61) with three homers, four doubles, eight RBI, eight runs, and a steal in 17 games during May. Freeman isn't getting any younger, but he still ranks in the 79th percentile in hard-hit rate, the 88th percentile in expected slugging percentage, and the 85th percentile in xwOBA. Oh, and he is still hitting in the heart of one of the best lineups in baseball.--Keith Hernandez

Tom Kim has missed only one cut through 10 solo events this year, though he has not been able to get back to the high-end results we saw from him for much of 2024. He has just two finishes better than T34, including his best result of the season, a T6 two weeks ago at the Myrtle Beach Classic. He now turns to the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, where he has finishes of T34, T52, and a missed cut over the last three seasons. Kim sits 105th in strokes gained off the tee (-0.116 per round), 36th on approach (+0.330), and 50th in total driving. His putting has also held him back this year, ranking 105th, but in his last three trips to TPC Craig Ranch, he has gained at least 1.25 strokes putting each time. Strong approach play on the year and decent course history make him worth a long look at $7,800 on DraftKings.--Dakota Legg - RotoBaller

Athletics first baseman Nick Kurtz continued to swing the bat well in May in the team's 14-6 blowout victory over the hosting Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday night, going 3-for-5 at the plate with a double, season-high five RBI, two runs scored, and a stolen base to boost his season average to .276 and his OPS to .919. Kurtz is now hitting .328 (21-for-64) with three long balls, five doubles, a triple, 19 RBI, 13 runs scored, and three stolen bases in 17 games across 77 plate appearances in May to boost his season slash line to .276/.431/.488 with a .919 OPS. The 23-year-old former fourth overall pick out of Wake Forest in 2024 has eight home runs on the season and has added 34 RBI, 31 runs scored, and six stolen bases in his 170 at-bats in 2026. Kurtz is a monster at first base and had a ridiculous 36 home runs and 86 RBI in 117 games in his first big-league season with the A's in 2025. He's a must-start in traditional fantasy leagues every day he's in the lineup.--Keith Hernandez

Seattle Mariners pitching prospect Kade Anderson was the third-overall selection in last year's MLB Draft, which comes with some high expectations, but the southpaw has exceeded even that lofty outlook early on. The LSU product has struck out 51 batters in just 34 innings pitched (13.5 K/9), walking only 4.0 percent of batters he's faced (37.1 percent K-BB%), and producing a sterling 1.85 ERA through his first seven starts to his professional career at Double-A Arkansas. That pristine ERA even includes the five earned runs he yielded in his latest start; he allowed only two earned over his first six starts. Despite the rough outing, the Mariners' second-ranked prospect remains one of the top pitchers to stash in fantasy leagues. A promotion to Triple-A should not be far off, and with the expectation that the lefty will be able to compete at that level, an MLB debut should be in the cards later this season. There is not an opening in the current Seattle rotation anyway, which should give the 21-year-old some additional time to develop, but given how quickly he could get the hook to the majors and his ability to pile up the strikeouts, he should be viewed as a high-end pitcher to stash right now.--Jarod Rupp

New York Mets right-handed pitching prospect Jonah Tong was originally scheduled to start for Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday, but he was a late scratch, according to Mike Mayer of Metsmerized. The Mets are rolling with left-handed pitching prospect Zach Thornton on Wednesday in their game against the division-rival Washington Nationals, but Tong could be summoned to the big leagues next to replace Clay Holmes (leg), who is on the 60-day injured list after suffering a fractured right fibula. Tong is the Mets' No. 2 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, but he has struggled at Syracuse so far in 2026, posting a 5.68 ERA and 1.37 WHIP in 38 innings. The 22-year-old 6-foot-1, 180-pounder has also struck out 55 batters, though. The Canadian hurler made his major-league debut with the Mets in 2025 and struggled, allowing 20 runs (16 earned) on 24 hits (three homers) while walking nine and striking out 22 in 18 2/3 frames across his first five starts. It's unclear if Tong is actually getting the call to the majors, but for his long-term upside along, he's an arm worth stashing in deeper fantasy leagues.--Keith Hernandez

After recording a T5 at the Truist Championship, Sungjae Im struggled to follow it up at the PGA Championship, missing the cut after a poor week on approach. He now looks to rebound at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, where he finished T33 last year at TPC Craig Ranch. Im ranks 68th in strokes gained off the tee (+0.084 per round), 16th around the green (+0.355), and 65th in putting (+0.115). The biggest concern remains his approach play, where he is losing -0.405 strokes per round, ranking 137th on Tour. Despite the poor iron play, Im still carries some of the highest upside in the field, and at $8,700 on DraftKings, he is worth a look by fantasy managers.--Dakota Legg - RotoBaller

Billy Horschel has struggled to find any consistent form this season, recording just one top-25 finish in solo events to go along with four missed cuts. He will look to find something in a watered-down field this week at TPC Craig Ranch, where he is making his course debut. Success here typically comes down to strong off-the-tee play and approach with long irons, two areas where Horschel has struggled this year. He ranks 135th in strokes gained off the tee (-0.383 per round), 91st on approach (-0.002), and 115th in proximity from over 200 yards, a distance that accounted for more than 39% of approach shots here last year.

Detroit Tigers outfield prospect Max Clark has remained a steady bat at Triple-A Toledo, currently riding a seven-game hit streak, going 9-for-33 (.273) with a pair of doubles, two walks, one steal, nine runs scored, and four RBI over that stretch. During this run, he's struck out just six times, which is 17.1 percent, right around his season rate of 15.0 percent, showing that he still does not appear to be overmatched by Triple-A pitching. With just one home run, the power hasn't quite shown up yet, but his max exit velocity of 111.3 this season ranks in the 84th percentile, and he profiles as more of a hit-over-power bat anyway. At just 21 years old, more power could come as he continues to mature, and with an all-around skillset like his, the former third-overall draft pick is an enticing future fantasy asset. Currently hitting .269 with a 10.0 percent walk rate, if the left-handed slugger can continue to produce, an MLB debut should be coming in the near future. The organization is clearly not in a rush after deciding not to promote him after injuries this year to Parker Meadows (arm) and Javier Baez (ankle), but look for a call-up by midseason, and Clark should be considered a high-end stash with multi-category potential.--Jarod Rupp

Washington Nationals infielder Nasim Nunez continued his breakout season on the bases Monday, stealing his 20th base of the year and tying Jose Ramirez for the MLB lead. The 25-year-old has been caught stealing just twice and continues to create pressure whenever he reaches base. Nunez owns a 29.8 mph sprint speed, which ranks in the 99th percentile across MLB and highlights the elite speed tool driving his production. While he is slashing just .196/.304/.217 this season, his 13.0 BB% has helped him generate additional opportunities on the base paths. Fantasy managers in need of steals should continue targeting Nunez as he establishes himself as one of baseball's premier stolen base threats.--Julian Brooke

The boom-or-bust nature of Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has made him one of the more polarizing dynasty evaluations. Seven times in 2025, he finished a week with fewer than 5.5 half-PPR points, twice being held without a single catch. It could be argued that those lows, along with the injury and suspension that clouded the early stages of his career, are carrying too much weight in his dynasty ranking. At only 25 years old, Williams is RotoBaller's dynasty WR29, despite finishing as the overall WR10 in 2025 and the WR5 over the final 11 weeks. Outside of a handful of truly elite players, all wide receivers are inconsistent from a fantasy perspective, and while that's certainly more clear in Williams' case, few receivers in the league are capable of matching his regular week-winning performances. On paper, the Lions head into 2026 with one of the most fantasy-friendly schedules in the league, and under new offensive coordinator Drew Petzing, Detroit can expect to see more heavy personnel packages, which should further funnel targets through Williams and Amon-Ra St. Brown. If Williams can cut down on the costly drops, he has the potential for a second straight WR1 finish, and this time, managers should expect his dynasty value to follow.--Patrick McGrath

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown finished 2025 as the fantasy RB8 after an RB12 finish in 2024. At 26 years old, he enters the final season of his rookie contract as RotoBaller's dynasty RB13, but should he and the team reach an agreement on a potential contract extension before the 2027 season, that ranking would almost certainly vault up. Brown's status as a true dynasty RB1 has long been held down by his fifth-round draft status and a fear that the Bengals could bring in additional competition to diminish his three-down role. Instead, over the past three offseasons, the Bengals have traded away former cornerstone running back Joe Mixon while spending a single sixth-round pick on the position. Brown heads into 2026 as one of the league's true bell cow backs on what again projects to be one of its most potent offenses. Even if the sides are unable to work out a long-term extension and this proves to be his final season in Cincinnati, Brown is arguably still worth his current price to contending dynasty managers on the potential of a top-five finish in 2026.--Patrick McGrath

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.

Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins was a late free agency addition in the 2025 offseason, but he came into the year as the clear lead back in Denver, and he held that role until a Week 10 foot injury ended his season. Across his seven starts to finish the year in Dobbins' place, 2025 second-round pick RJ Harvey ran incredibly hot in the touchdown department, scoring six times from Weeks 13 through 17, but nothing else that he showed in his expanded role would suggest that the starting job should belong to anyone other than Dobbins in 2026. Running behind one of the best offensive lines in the league, Harvey managed only 3.7 yards per carry to Dobbins' 5.0-yard average. The Broncos spent a 2026 fourth-round pick on well-rounded running back Jonah Coleman, so it's unlikely Dobbins maintains the 16.7 opportunity per game pace he was on pre-injury, but it's possible that more of a committee approach could help keep him healthy, having never managed a full injury-free season since coming into the league as a second-round pick in 2020. At RotoBaller's dynasty RB39, the market has priced him as if the Denver backfield will see something close to a clean three-way split. Should he maintain the largest slice of the pie, as he proved himself worthy in 2025, Dobbins becomes a value depth buy for contending managers not put off by his serious injury history.--Patrick McGrath

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze enters Year 3 with serious questions about his long-term dynasty value. The ninth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft showed legitimate flashes to open his sophomore campaign, ranking as the WR3 before a Week 5 bye. Things quickly went downhill from there as a nagging foot injury cost him five games and slowed him in several others, and at times, there appeared to be a disconnect between him and second-year quarterback Caleb Williams. Odunze's 87 targets led the Bears, but his team-low 50.6% reception rate resulted in only 44 catches, the fourth-most on the team. Even with the trade of DJ Moore to Buffalo helping to thin the ranks, there is still uncertainty about just where Odunze slots into a still crowded group of pass catchers. Tight end Colston Loveland dominated the team's target share through two postseason games, and Luther Burden III was the most dynamic offensive player in Chicago by the end of the season. There is an expectation that Williams will take another step forward in his second season with Ben Johnson. If he and Odunze can rediscover the chemistry that led to five touchdowns through the first four games of 2025, the 23-year-old receiver is likely being priced well below his ceiling at WR23 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings.--Patrick McGrath

St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez remains one of the top hitters to stash on fantasy rosters, given his proximity to the majors and his power upside. The Cards' third-ranked prospect has homered in four of his last seven contests at Triple-A Memphis, giving him 11 on the year while slugging .484. The former second-rounder's power comes with quite a bit of swing-and-miss, though, as he's struck out in nine of his last 15 plate appearances (60.0 percent) and owns a 35.0 percent strikeout rate in 40 games for the Redbirds, which has resulted in a depressed .226 batting average. Still, so long as the 6-foot-3 slugger can continue to hit home runs, the batting average may not matter all that much in terms of earning a promotion, especially if he can draw walks at an average rate (currently 7.3 percent), which will help him utilize his base-stealing ability, currently with eight swiped bags so far after stealing 54 during the 2025 campaign. The multi-category potential makes him an appealing stash in most category leagues ahead of his eventual call-up.--Jarod Rupp

Before coming up short at Aronimink, Clark had put together some encouraging outings, including a T21 at the Masters and a T16 at RBC Heritage.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. was the first draft pick of the Sean Payton era, but now three years into his career, as he enters the final season of his rookie contract, he has yet to find a consistent role with the team. After a career-high 503 receiving yards and six touchdowns in 2024, his work in the passing game took a step back in 2025 as his primary involvement came as a returner on punts and kickoffs. With the Broncos sending a first and third-round pick to acquire Jaylen Waddle at the start of the new league year, there's no reason to believe Mims will suddenly take a step forward in 2026. While he has publicly expressed an openness to signing an extension with the Broncos, his best chance of finding sustained fantasy success could eventually come in another uniform. At RotoBaller's dynasty WR114, Mims is still worthy of a roster spot in deeper leagues, but outside of best ball formats, where his speed can help contribute to one-play spike weeks, he's unlikely to crack lineups with any consistency without a rash of injuries ahead of him.--Patrick McGrath
