Thomas White Emerging as Top Pitching Prospect to Stash?
Miami Marlins pitching prospect Thomas White was scratched from his Wednesday start "for precautionary reasons," leading many to speculate that his call-up to the majors is imminent. No official promotion has happened, but starting pitcher Braxton Garrett was optioned to Triple-A on Wednesday, which could pave the way for White's debut. White was already considered a top pitcher to stash for fantasy before Garrett was optioned, and this only makes the case even stronger. The Marlins' top-ranked prospect's 2026 stats don't jump off the page (4.01 ERA, 1.46 WHIP), but he's struck out 25 batters in 18 2/3 innings pitched at Triple-A Jacksonville this season (30.9 percent K%) and punched out 145 batters in only 89 2/3 IP across three levels in 2025. For fantasy managers looking for pitching help, the time is now to grab White off the waiver wire ahead of a possible call-up. Even if the promotion doesn't happen in the next day or so, it should take place in the coming weeks, and the 21-year-old is still a worthy stash option with strikeout upside.
