Ralphy Velazquez Firmly on the Stash Radar Amid Recent Triple-A Promotion
Cleveland Guardians first base prospect Ralphy Velazquez is now firmly on the stash radar amid his promotion to Triple-A Columbus. The first baseman was enjoying a stellar start to the campaign at Double-A and was rewarded with an early promotion to the top club, putting him just one step away from the big leagues. With Double-A Velazquez appeared in 36 games, posting a .317/.414/.566 slash line with a dominant .980 OPS. During this stint, Velazquez went deep seven times and held a strong 31:22 K:BB. Since moving up to the top club, the infielder has yet to slow down, going 6-for-17 over his first five games with a 2:3 K:BB. While first base is not a direct position of need on the MLB roster, Velazquez could eventually shift to the DH spot if he maintains this pace. He is quickly climbing the stash rankings and could emerge as a must-stash option if he maintains this current trajectory.
