Chandler Simpson - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues CALL-UP ETA: July ANALYSIS: Unlike many players currently in the minor leagues, Chandler Simpson has proven he can be a valuable fantasy player at the MLB level. In his time in the majors, he hit .285 with 19 stolen bases in 35 games. Unfortunately, being a valuable fantasy player […]

Brady House - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: The Nationals went viral on social media this week for making a fun call-up. They called up their bat dog from Triple-A. While this was very cute and should improve the vibes a little bit in Washington, I don't think Bruce the Bat Dog will help […]

Samuel Basallo - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: Samuel Basallo might be the best hitter in the minors right now, and he has catcher eligibility.

Andrew Painter - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: Painter's last two starts don't give a ton of confidence that he is ready to be in the majors. It may not even be before the All-Star break before we see him, but that does not mean we are in stash territory. The good news is, […]

Colby Thomas - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues CALL-UP ETA: July ANALYSIS: The A's continue to lose, and Colby Thomas continues to hit homers in Triple-A.

Chase DeLauter - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues CALL-UP ETA: July ANALYSIS: Chase DeLauter has been one of the most snake-bitten prospects in the minors. When he's on the field, he's shown tremendous upside, but he hasn't been on the field a lot. He didn't play at all in 2022 after getting drafted in the first round […]

Bubba Chandler - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: The Pirates' home schedule is not favorable with how Bubba Chandler lines up the next few weeks, and walking four batters on Wednesday and not getting out of the first inning also isn't doing him any favors. While his walk rate ballooned during the start, Chandler […]
