When Will Max Clark Make his Major-League Debut?
Detroit Tigers outfield prospect Max Clark continues to hold his own at Triple-A, though he is not excelling to the point where a call-up to the majors feels like it is right around the corner. The Tigers' top-ranked prospect (MLB No. 7) is just 10-for-49 (.204) over his last 13 games, but on the bright side, three of his four home runs came during that stretch, and he also maintained an 11:12 BB:K over that span. For the season, the former third-overall draft pick is slashing .253/.341/.382 with four home runs, 12 steals, and solid walk (11.2 percent) and strikeout rates (16.7 percent). The organization has made it clear they are in no rush to bring him up to the majors, and if he is not hitting well, then his debut could be delayed a bit longer than previously anticipated. Look for the 21-year-old to earn a promotion this season, but it might be sometime after the All-Star break. With a skillset that could make him a five-category contributor, though, the left-handed hitter is still one of the top bats to stash in most fantasy leagues.
