Roderick Arias Blasts Grand Slam For Single-A Tampa
Roderick Arias hit his second career grand slam on Thursday night. The 19-year-old is hitting .228 with seven home runs and 51 RBI to go with 26 stolen bases for Single-A Tampa this season. The Yankees' No. 4 prospect is top-five in the Florida State League in hits, RBI, and stolen bases. A solid hitter with power and speed on the bases, Arias is a promising prospect. At just 19, he has handled his first taste of Single-A quite nicely. He is a name to stash away as he continues to progress through the Yankees' farm system.

Roderick Arias Stays Hot With Third Home Run Of The Month
Roderick Arias went 2-for-5 at the plate on Wednesday with his fifth home run of the season and third since the start of June. After struggling through his first two months of Single-A ball, the 19-year-old has begun to find his footing. In his past 11 games, Arias has held a .300/.352/.600 line with 17 RBI and four stolen bass. Overall on the season, he sits with a .227/.326/.387 line that is inflated due to his poor start. The number four ranked prospect in the Yankee system on MLB Pipeline is several seasons away from his major league debut but could become a must-stash candidate in dynasty leagues if he carries this success into High-A.

Roderick Arias Tallies Career-High Six RBI On Friday
Roderick Arias tallied three hits on Friday evening with a triple and a home run and brought home a career-high six runs. Arias has struggled through his first look at Single-A ball but has recently begun to string together strong performances. Over his past 17 games, the 19-year-old is riding a .260/.291/.425 line with 15 RBI and five swiped bags. However, overall on the season, the switch-hitter holds an underwhelming .218/.321/.359 line with 29 RBI and 14 stolen bases through 52 games.

Roderick Arias Posts First Career Three-Hit Game
Roderick Arias posted his first three-hit game on Wednesday. The 19-year-old has posted three two-hit games in his first taste of professional ball, but Wednesday was the first time he had surpassed the three-hit feat. Arias is currently riding a solid .221/.338/.382 line in his first 17 games at Single-A. Arias, who is considered the third-best prospect in the Yankee system and 78th overall prospect on MLB Pipeline, is many years away from making his major league debut. However, dynasty managers should keep an eye on his production as he has the potential to become one of the best prospects in the sport.
