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: Luckily, it sounds like Jarren Duran avoided serious injury and is simply day-to-day with a toe contusion. However, if he were to miss time, Ceddanne Rafaela would be one of the leading candidates to step into regular playing time.
Another day, another dinger.

First and foremost, Rafaela's great defense in center field would instantly benefit Boston, and he's been red-hot in Triple-A on top of that. In 42 games at the level, Rafaela has smacked 13 home runs and 11 doubles with a .314/.367/.640 slash line. Yes, Rafaela is aggressive, but his pull-side power and plus speed would make him highly intriguing for fantasy purposes once he gets the call to Boston.
