Yunior Severino is a fantasy baseball 3B prospect sleeper and minor leaguer to know. Read our MLB prospects outlooks for fantasy baseball rookies and call-ups.
PROSPECT: Yunior Severino, 3B/2B, Minnesota Twins
ANALYSIS: The switch-hitting Yunior Severino was originally signed by Atlanta as part of their enormous 2016 Latin American class. That class ended up being removed from the organization after the 2017 season due to violations by the Braves in 2016 that would not have allowed them to afford the players they signed.
Severino signed that offseason with the Twins, and many regarded him as the jewel of the crop of newly-minted free agents from the Braves' system. Since then, he has struggled to develop due to the pandemic and significant injuries.
This year, he's finally healthy and hitting like he always showed that he could, slashing .287/.365/.560 with Double-A Wichita before a promotion this past week to Triple-A.
VERDICT: He's worked his way up the system, but at 23, he's still got development to do, such as controlling the strike zone. Watch him, as he could develop quickly similar to Jose Miranda in 2022, but there is no need to roster him right now.

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. What more do you need to know (I know catcher is super deep this year, but still)? Basallo has been an age-to-level monster for the majority of his pro […]
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. The A's just got swept by the Angels, bringing their record to 26-44. While plays like Denzel Clarke's HR robbery can generate a spark for a team, the A's might need […]
