Walker Jenkins Still Worth Stashing Amid IL Stint?
Minnesota Twins outfield prospect Walker Jenkins (shoulder) is currently on the injured list, but he remains an intriguing option to stash in fantasy baseball as he approaches his return to action. Jenkins was a first-round pick out of high school in 2023, and he has quickly ascended to the upper tier of the minors. Across 25 games prior to his injury, he was slashing .256/.396/.389 with two home runs, five steals, a 17.1% walk rate, a 16.2% strikeout rate, and 111 wRC+. Jenkins isn't a major power threat, as he only went yard 10 times last year. However, his speed and on-base skills still make him a very intriguing prospect to stash in fantasy baseball. Assuming he returns to game action by the end of May, we wouldn't be shocked to see Jenkins get called up to the majors in June. He currently ranks as the #3 outfield prospect in our latest redraft rankings.

Taj Bradley Goes 1 2/3 Innings in Rehab Start on Sunday
Minnesota Twins right-hander Taj Bradley (pectoral) only went 1 2/3 innings in his minor-league rehab start on Sunday with Triple-A St. Paul, allowing an earned run on two hits while walking two and striking out three. Bradley threw 42 of his 65 pitches for strikes on the day and could be ready to return to the Twins' starting rotation soon after he was placed on the 15-day injured list on May 9 with inflammation in his right pectoral muscle. The Twins will re-evaluate Bradley on Monday before determining if they want him to make another rehab start in the minors before rejoining the big-league starting rotation. If Bradley doesn't require another tune-up game in the minors, he could be looking at making his next start for the Twins this weekend against the struggling Boston Red Sox. The 25-year-old former fifth-round pick by the Tampa Bay Rays in 2018 has had a strong first full season in Minnesota before his injury, going 4-1 with a 2.87 ERA (3.48 FIP) and 1.19 WHIP with 52 strikeouts and 17 walks in 47 innings across his eight starts. Fantasy managers looking for rotation help need to look no further than Bradley, who is rostered in 75% of Yahoo leagues right now.

Max Clark a Top Stash Option Amid Hitting Streak?
Detroit Tigers outfield prospect Max Clark has emerged as a top option to stash in fantasy baseball. Clark is still in Triple-A, but he's knocking on the door of the major leagues and could make his debut within the next couple of weeks. As it stands, the former #1 overall pick owns a seven-game hitting streak at Triple-A. Through those seven games, he is 9-for-33 with two doubles, two walks, six strikeouts, and a stolen base. Across 39 total games this year, he's slashing .269/.339/.369 with 91 wRC+. Although he only has one home run, he makes up for his lack of power with his speed. He has 10 stolen bases so far, and if called up to the majors, his ability to swipe bags should give him immediate fantasy value. Clark ranks #2 among outfielders in RotoBaller's latest prospect rankings for redraft leagues. Because it seems like he'll be called up soon, he's a very intriguing player to stash.

Roki Sasaki Emerging as Worthy Waiver-Wire Option After Eight-Strikeout Effort
Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Roki Sasaki, who is only rostered in 34% of Yahoo leagues at the moment, should garner more attention after his best outing of the year in Sunday's 10-1 defeat over the crosstown-rival Los Angeles Angels. Sasaki won his second game of the 2026 season by limiting the struggling Halos to just one earned run on four hits while walking none and striking out a season-high eight batters in a season-high seven innings pitched to help the Dodgers sweep the Angels. It was the first time that the 24-year-old failed to walk a batter in his big-league career, which could be a turning point for the Japanese hurler. Sasaki's numbers still don't look pretty overall -- 2-3 record, 5.09 ERA, 1.45 WHIP, 39:16 K:BB in eight starts -- but his season-best performance makes him at least worth watching as a potential waiver-wire pickup going forward with both Tyler Glasnow (back) and Blake Snell (elbow) on the injured list. If Sasaki can build on his most recent performance in his next scheduled start against the Milwaukee Brewers, he will be making a case to stick in L.A's rotation long term.

Byron Buxton Expected to Return to the Lineup Soon
Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (hip) worked out at Target Field before Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers as he works his way back from right-hip flexor soreness, and he felt fine on Sunday, according to Matthew Leach of MLB.com. Buxton is confident that he will return in a matter of days, not weeks, to the starting lineup. He first felt something in his hip joint in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Miami Marlins, and then he homered twice on Wednesday. However, his hip acted up before Thursday's series finale against the Fish, and he was scratched from the lineup. Buxton hasn't played since. "It's just being smart," Buxton said. "I don't want to make the tightness, if that's what it is, become something major." The Twins are being cautious with the veteran outfielder because of his lengthy injury history, but he could be back in the starting nine for Monday's series opener at Target Field against the visiting Houston Astros. If the 32-year-old is active on Monday, fantasy managers will want to get him back into their starting lineups. He's already up to 15 long balls on the year with 23 RBI, 33 runs scored, and four steals in 169 at-bats.

Mets Hope Francisco Lindor Can Return in a Month
The New York Mets are hoping that All-Star shortstop Francisco Lindor (calf) can return in around a month, but they aren't putting a timetable on it, according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post. Lindor's strained left calf is healing, but he has yet to be cleared to start baseball activities. Fantasy managers are going to need to stay patient here and keep Lindor stashed in all formats, even though the four-time Silver Slugger winner was only hitting .226 (21-for-93) with two home runs, five RBI, 14 runs scored, and two stolen bases in 24 games at the time of his injury. Ronny Mauricio (thumb) is also out for an extended period of time for the banged-up Mets, which has forced the team to move third baseman Bo Bichette to regular duties at the 6 in Queens. Meanwhile, the left-handed-hitting Brett Baty is seeing regular playing time at third base for the Mets against right-handed pitchers.

Brice Matthews Still Worth Targeting Off the Waiver Wire?
Houston Astros outfielder Brice Matthews has been quiet at the plate in May and may no longer be worth holding in mixed fantasy leagues. In 16 games in May, Matthews has gone 11-for-55 (.200) with two home runs, five RBI, six runs scored, a stolen base, three walks, and 14 strikeouts across 59 plate appearances. He has not homered since May 6 and is barely over the Mendoza Line (.204) on the year with four long balls, 13 RBI, 12 runs scored, and two stolen bases in 39 games in just his second season in the big leagues. Matthews also struggled in a small sample size of 13 games in his first taste of major-league pitching in 2025, going 7-for-42 (.167), although he did hit four home runs while driving in nine, scoring six runs, and stealing one base. Three of the 24-year-old's home runs so far in 2026 came during a nine-game stretch, but outside of that, he just hasn't been consistent enough to warrant a roster spot in mixed leagues. Matthews is currently rostered in only 3% of Yahoo leagues.

Parker Washington a Sneaky Trade Target in Dynasty Leagues?
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington finds himself in a very crowded position group, but he has a real opportunity to carve out significant fantasy value again in 2026. Washington had the best season of his career last year, breaking out for 58 catches, 847 yards, and five touchdowns. He ranked as the WR27 in PPR leagues, which led the team. Although he's technically lower than Brian Thomas Jr. and Jakobi Meyers on the depth chart again this year, that's merely a formality, and we expect Washington to pick up right where he left off last winter. The 24-year-old should take on an even larger role with Travis Hunter expected to play more defense than offense, and there won't be any shortage of targets to go around after Trevor Lawrence attempted 32.9 passes per game last year. Washington remains a high-end WR3 in dynasty leagues, making him an intriguing trade candidate since his current managers may not value him as high due to the Jags' crowded offense.

Cade Cavalli Should be Drawing More Attention on the Waiver Wire
Washington Nationals right-hander Cade Cavalli won his second game of the 2026 season on Saturday in the team's 13-3 blowout win over the Baltimore Orioles. Cavalli picked up his third quality start of the year by allowing three earned runs on eight hits (two home runs) while walking none and striking out eight in 6 1/3 innings pitched. The home runs that the 27-year-old allowed were the first of the season for him. He threw 68 of his 96 pitches for strikes. Cavalli has now struck out at least eight batters in three of his last five starts. In back-to-back outings against the Atlanta Braves and New York Mets on May 23 and May 29, Cavalli had 20 total strikeouts with only four earned runs in 11 innings. After his performance over the weekend against Baltimore, the former first-rounder in 2020 out of Oklahoma sits at 2-2 on the year with a 4.05 ERA (3.37 FIP) and 1.54 WHIP with 52 strikeouts and 18 walks in 46 2/3 innings across his 10 starts for the Nats. He has a rematch against the division-rival Mets in his next outing, making him a clear streaming option for fantasy managers, even though the Mets have picked things up of late.

Melquizael Costa Drops Decision At UFC Vegas 117
Melquizael Costa suffered a unanimous decision loss to Arnold Allen in the main event of UFC Vegas 117 on Saturday. The fight was fairly competitive in the first two rounds, but Allen started taking over in the third round. Costa had his moments, but Allen's experience and well-rounded game were too much for the Brazilian. In 25 minutes of action, Costa landed 100 significant strikes. With the loss, Costa's six-fight winning streak was snapped. By losing, Costa dropped to 7-3 in the UFC.

Can Jarquez Hunter's Dynasty Outlook Improve in Year 2?
Los Angeles Rams running back Jarquez Hunter had a disappointing rookie season in 2025. Despite having solid draft capital as a fourth-round pick, he played exclusively on special teams last year and did not register an offensive snap. That doesn't bode well for his long-term outlook in dynasty fantasy football, especially since the Rams already have a dominant one-two punch of Kyren Williams and Blake Corum out of the backfield. Even if Hunter does secure the third-string role heading into the season -- and that's far from guaranteed -- he faces an uphill battle to earn meaningful snaps once again. If he goes two years without any sort of significant role on offense, his dynasty value will essentially be non-existent. It's already trending that way, as Hunter has fallen to RB84 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings. He can be dropped in shallower leagues, and he belongs at the bottom of the bench in deeper leagues.

With the win, Allen improved to 12-3 in the UFC.

Sal Frelick Heating Up at the Plate, Widely Available in Fantasy Leagues
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Sal Frelick doesn't have game-changing power or speed, and he got off to a slow start offensively in 2026. However, Frelick has been showing signs of life at the plate recently and has gone 7-for-25 (.280) with a double, three RBI, two stolen bases, and two runs scored in his last six games, dating back to May 12. He is hitting just .250 (13-for-52) with a double, four RBI, two steals, and four runs scored across 14 games in May, but it's still a big improvement over his .219/.298/.315 slash line with two homers, seven RBI, 12 runs scored, and a stolen base in 24 games (87 plate appearances) in April. Overall, Frelick is batting .224 with a weak .614 OPS, three long balls, 13 RBI, and 19 runs scored in 161 plate appearances as Milwaukee's starting right fielder. His double on Sunday was his first extra-base hit of the month. The ceiling isn't very high for Frelick, but in deeper leagues, he might be worth a pickup if he continues to swing the bat well. Frelick is rostered in only 10% of Yahoo leagues.

James Conner Off the Dynasty Radar Entirely?
Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner's (foot) dynasty fantasy football value took an enormous hit this offseason as the team brought in two key running backs to presumably take his job. New Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur wasted no time putting his own fingerprint on the offense, signing Tyler Allgeier in free agency and selecting Jeremiyah Love with the third pick in the NFL Draft. Love should be the Week 1 starter, and while Conner could compete with Allgeier for the backup role, Allgeier has the early advantage because Conner has no ties to the new coaching regime in Arizona. It also doesn't help that Conner is 31 years old and coming off a foot/ankle injury. Plus, heading into a contract year, the Cardinals will have less motivation to feed him snaps. There's not much to do with Conner in dynasty leagues, other than stash him. At RB64 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings, he's unlikely to fetch any meaningful compensation if you trade him away, and it would take a serious injury to Love for Conner to have any value as a fantasy starter if you trade for him.

Will Elijah Arroyo Continue to Have Trouble Getting on the Field?
Seattle Seahawks tight end Elijah Arroyo remains the No. 2 option on the depth chart, which could be good news or bad news. It's encouraging in the sense that the Seahawks didn't draft a rookie tight end, because that could have bumped Arroyo down to the third spot. On the other hand, even as the league shifts to more 12 personnel packages, the Seahawks may continue to use just one tight end (A.J. Barner). Seattle's new offensive coordinator, Brian Fleury, was the tight ends coach with the 49ers last year. In 2025, the 49ers ran 12 personnel on just 11.46% of their plays. That ranked seventh-lowest in the NFL, and it was approximately half the league average rate. If Fleury, despite his background coaching tight end, carries that same philosophy from San Francisco to Seattle, Arroyo could have trouble earning consistent playing time when Barner is healthy. He ranks as the TE28 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty rankings, but it's hard to envision him being a reliable fantasy option as early as 2026.

Daniel Santos suffered a second-round TKO loss to Dooho Choi in the co-main event of UFC Vegas 117 on Saturday. Santos had success in the opening round as he was landing power punches on Choi, and it even looked like he was going to finish Choi or dominate him for the entire fight. However, Choi turned things around and started landing jabs and counters. With 31 seconds left in the second round, Choi landed a body shot that crumbled Santos. In 9:29 of action, Santos landed 72 significant strikes. With the loss, Santos dropped to 13-3 as a pro and is now 4-2 in the UFC.

Tre Tucker Not a Long-Term Solution in Dynasty Leagues
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker is coming off the best season of his career. Across 17 games in 2025, he caught 57 passes for 696 yards and five touchdowns. He ranked as the overall WR38 in PPR leagues, which was the highest mark of his career. He also led the Raiders' receivers in numerous statistical categories. However, even though the Raiders didn't bring in any star receivers this offseason, Tucker is trending down in dynasty fantasy football leagues. Tucker is heading into a contract year, which means he could be at a disadvantage relative to teammates Jalen Nailor, Jack Bech, Malik Benson, and D'onte Thornton Jr., all of whom have stronger long-term outlooks in Vegas. Additionally, tight end Brock Bowers will be the focal point of the passing game, hogging targets in his high-volume role. Tucker will have some occasional big games, but he won't produce consistently enough (or long enough) to justify trading for him in dynasty leagues. In fact, his stock is falling, as he has dropped to WR93 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty rankings.

Spencer Schwellenbach Worth an Add Amid Looming Return?
Atlanta Braves right-hander Spencer Schwellenbach (elbow), who is currently on the 60-day injured list after having surgery to remove bone spurs from his right elbow, is reportedly close to starting a throwing program and is worth a look on the waiver wire as a pitcher to stash. The 25-year-old is currently rostered in only 30% of Yahoo leagues. Schwellenbach won't be an option to rejoin Atlanta's starting rotation until after the All-Star break in mid-July, but for his upside alone, he's worth stashing in fantasy leagues if you have the room. The former second-rounder in 2021 out of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln has gone 15-11 in his two seasons with the Braves with a 3.23 ERA (3.27 FIP), 1.01 WHIP, and 235:41 K:BB in 234 1/3 innings pitched across 38 starts. There's plenty of risk, though, as Schwellenbach has already had Tommy John surgery and has yet to throw a full season in the Braves' big-league rotation.

Bailey Ober Picks Up Second Straight Win, Worth a Look on Waivers
Minnesota Twins right-hander Bailey Ober wasn't nearly as good on Sunday against the Milwaukee Brewers as he was his last time out on May 12, when he threw a complete-game shutout with only two hits allowed and seven strikeouts against the Miami Marlins. Ober didn't even have a quality start on Sunday in the team's 5-4 win, but he did earn his fifth win of the year by limiting the Brewers to three earned runs on six hits (two homers) while walking two and striking out one. The damage that the 30-year-old allowed came on long balls to outfielders Garrett Mitchell and Christian Yelich. Ober doesn't throw hard and has limited long-term fantasy upside because of his lack of swing-and-miss stuff, but you can't ignore the fact that he's given up two runs or less in four of his last six appearances for the Twins. Overall, he's 5-2 with a 3.63 ERA and 1.07 WHIP with just 40 punchouts in 57 innings across his 10 starts. Ober is worth a look on the waiver wire -- he's rostered in just under 50% of Yahoo leagues -- and will be a streaming option in his next outing against a Boston Red Sox team that ranks second-to-last in OPS (.666).

Gavin Sheets on Fire at the Plate, Hits Two More Homers in Seattle
San Diego Padres outfielder/first baseman Gavin Sheets is one of the hottest hitters in baseball right now. The 30-year-old left-handed slugger carried the Friars' offense on Sunday as they finished off another three-game sweep of the hosting Seattle Mariners in an 8-3 win, going 3-for-3 at the plate with two home runs, four RBI, and two walks to raise his season average to .262 and his OPS to .896. Both of Sheets' long balls at T-Mobile Park came off right-handed starter George Kirby. It was the second straight day that Sheets cleared the fences in Seattle, and he extended his current hitting streak to six games after starting May pretty cold offensively. During his six-game hitting streak, Sheets has gone 10-for-16 (.625) with four homers, a double, eight RBI, six runs scored, and a stolen base. He continues to produce for fantasy managers with outfield and first base eligibility, and he's now slashing .262/.340/.556 with nine total home runs, 10 doubles, 21 RBI, 19 runs scored, and three stolen bases in his 141 plate appearances in 2026.

Kyle Manzardo Doubles his Homer Total in One Game on Sunday
Cleveland Guardians first baseman Kyle Manzardo continues to heat up offensively in May.

Manzardo wasn't the only Cleveland batter feeling good in the series finale, as the Guards totaled six home runs on the day. The 25-year-old Manzardo may not have gotten off to a strong start at the plate in 2026, but he has been heating up in May, hitting .295 (13-for-44) with three long balls, two doubles, a triple, nine RBI, and 12 runs scored in 14 games played across 49 plate appearances. He is now slashing .223/.301/.362 with four doubles, four home runs, 16 RBI, and 15 runs scored in his 146 plate appearances for Cleveland. Fantasy managers will want to continue to ride the left-handed-hitting first baseman while he's hot.

It was the 25-year-old's ninth career mult-home run game, and he now has seven home runs in his 43 games played in 2026. During his six-game hitting streak, the former National League Rookie of the Year has gone 8-for-19 (.421) with two homers, three doubles, four RBI, eight runs scored, and two stolen bases. He's still only hitting .245 (13-for-53) in May with three homers, six RBI, 11 runs, and two stolen bases, but he's picking things up offensively. Fantasy managers have to be stoked with what they are seeing of late out of Carroll, and that he keeps it up moving forward.

Jonah Tong a Priority Stash Ahead of Looming Return to Major Leagues?
New York Mets right-handed pitching prospect Jonah Tong could be in the mix to join the starting rotation in the major leagues in the near future. Earlier this week, the Mets placed starting pitcher Clay Holmes on the 15-day injured list with a fractured fibula, which will keep him on the shelf for at least six weeks. While the team has yet to announce a replacement, the former 209th-overall pick will likely be considered a potential option. Tong was in the mix to begin the campaign in the starting rotation but was instead optioned to Triple-A Syracuse. While Tong has struggled to find consistency at Triple-A, he has often flashed immense strikeout potential, totaling 55 over a short 38-inning stint. Tong made his MLB debut late in the second half of the 2025 season but posted a high 7.71 ERA. Given the team's open role, Tong could be given a longer leash during his second stint, which makes him a solid stash option among pitching prospects.

Is Kade Anderson Entering Must-Stash Territory?
Seattle Mariners top pitching prospect Kade Anderson has fully put himself in must-stash territory, given his incredible start to his first professional campaign. Last year's No. 3 overall pick was sent to Double-A to begin his professional career and has been nothing short of incredible. With Arkansas, the southpaw has flashed incredible upside, logging 34 innings to the tune of a 1.85 ERA and a 0.76 WHIP. During this dominant start to his career, the left-hander has struck out 51 hitters while walking just five total batters. Over his first 30 frames, Anderson held a near-perfect 0.60 ERA before surrendering a season-high five runs in his most recent outing on May 15. The lone concern for Anderson is that the current MLB roster has a full rotation without a clear opening for Anderson. However, in the event of an injury, the former LSU superstar could get the call and become a must-start option for fantasy. For now, he is an elite stash option in all 12-team leagues ahead of Week 8.

Joshua Baez Soaring in the Stash Rankings Amid Power Binge
St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez has enjoyed an impressive power surge over the past week at Triple-A Memphis and is quickly climbing to the top of the stash rankings among both hitters and pitchers. Over his last six contests, the outfielder has launched four home runs while swiping one base. Overall, Baz has shown high-end power and speed upside during his first look at the Triple-A level, going deep 11 times and swiping seven bags over a short 39-game stint. However, the No. 76-ranked prospect in the sport on MLB.com has struggled to produce consistently, posting a low .232/.304/.497 slash line. While Baez was under consideration to break camp with the MLB roster, his recent power surge could push their hand in the immediate future. Given his recent surge at the dish, managers should view Baez as a priority stash option in all category formats ahead of Week 8 of the fantasy season.

River Ryan a Must-Stash Candidate with Clear Path to Starting Role?
Los Angeles Dodgers right-handed pitching prospect River Ryan has seen his stash value skyrocket over the past week. Not only has Ryan returned from a lengthy stint on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A, but he now has a clear path to a role on the MLB roster. Blake Snell recently joined Tyler Glasnow on the injured list, leaving a clear role for Ryan on the big-league roster. In his first start at Triple-A in nearly a month, the right-hander looked quite comfortable, logging four innings of one-run ball with two hits, one walk, and four punchouts. He made his MLB debut during the 2024 campaign and posted a stellar 1.33 ERA over 20 1/3 innings. However, after undergoing Tommy John surgery, Ryan was on the shelf for the entirety of the 2025 season. With him back to full strength and two open spots in the rotation, Ryan has quickly entered must-stash territory in all standard leagues, as a return to Los Angeles could come in the immediate future.
