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, Minnesota Twins
ANALYSIS: The minor league grind has been a long and tedious prospect for Severino, who signed with the Braves as an international free agent back in 2017. He has since worked his way through the minors, and now, at the age of 23, is making his case for a promotion to Triple-A.
Severino has shown terrific power at the plate, but he also takes enormous hacks that can lead to far too many strikeouts. His strikeout rate is consistently in the thirties, and his walk rate almost always hovers around 10 percent. A three-to-one strikeout-to-walk ratio is far from ideal, even for someone who hits a lot of home runs. Defensively, he has shown impressive glovework and instincts, locking him into second or third base long-term.
VERDICT: Severino is coming off a big week in which he went 11-for-22 with four homers, eight RBI, four walks, and seven strikeouts. It would not be surprising at all to see the Twins promote him to Rochester very soon.
