Ceddanne Rafaela 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: Ceddanne Rafaela, OF/SS, Boston Red Sox
ANALYSIS: Rafaela was originally signed in 2017 out of Curacao and made a strong impression in his first two seasons, smashing 25 extra-base hits and stealing 28 bases over 98 games in complex and short-season ball.
After the pandemic year, Rafaela returned to show power and speed but saw his walk rate drop significantly. Last year, he reached Double-A, hitting .299/.342/.539 with 21 home runs and 28 stolen bases. He's been even better this year, hitting .305 with 18 home runs and 34 steals.
Rafaela's best talent is with a glove on his hand. An above-average shortstop, Rafaela has developed into an elite defensive center fielder and could immediately be a high-end defender in the majors.
VERDICT: Rafaela's had a tremendous year and is on the cusp of a big league callup. He should be a prospective own in any dynasty league, but don't be surprised if he takes extra time to get on his feet in the majors.
