Luis Matos is a fantasy baseball OF prospect sleeper and minor leaguer to know. Read our MLB prospects outlooks for fantasy baseball rookies and call-ups.
PROSPECT: Luis Matos, OF, San Francisco Giants
ANALYSIS: After cracking my Top-25 Prospects list last week, Luis Matos makes a sizeable jump up the rankings this week and into the top 10.
Matos was a trendy prospect heading into 2022 but poor performance and injuries limited him and set up this bounceback season that we're currently witnessing. In 54 games between Double-A and Triple-A, Matos is slashing .348/.415/.548 with 13 doubles, nine home runs, 15 steals, and more walks than strikeouts.
VERDICT: There isn't a clear spot for Matos in San Francisco's outfield right now with Michael Conforto, Mitch Haniger, and Mike Yastrzemski all starting regularly with Joc Pederson at DH. However, Matos does appear to be the next man up and his all-around offensive skillset could allow him to carve out some fantasy value this season. Long-term, this is a potential 15-homer, 25-steal outfielder that can hit for a solid average as well.
