Ryan Waldschmidt Continues to Hit, Nearing MLB Debut?
Arizona Diamondbacks outfield prospect Ryan Waldschmidt simply will not slow down at Triple-A Reno and continues to press for a promotion to the major leagues. In his most recent contest, the D-backs' top-ranked prospect went 1-for-3 with a home run and two RBI, now sitting with a .317-3-19-25-4 stat line through 27 games. In addition to three home runs, the former 31st-overall draft pick has recorded seven doubles and three triples, giving him a stout .529 slugging percentage, and an above-average 11.9 percent walk rate has produced a .416 on-base percentage. After swiping 29 bags last year between High-A and Double-A, the University of Kentucky product has shown the ability to be a five-category fantasy producer, and remains one of the top hitter stashes in fantasy leagues, with appeal in all formats. The 23-year-old is likely to be up in the big leagues in the coming weeks, so the time is now to stash him away, especially in leagues where an NA spot is available.
