Xavier Isaac Undergoing Precautionary MRI
25 seconds agoTampa Bay Rays first base prospect Xavier Isaac (elbow) is set to undergo a precautionary MRI on his left elbow. Isaac has begun to see time in the outfield during camp, which has put more stress on his arm. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status as he is considered one of the top prospects in Tampa Bay and the sport. The former 29th overall pick has primarily been deployed as an infielder, but the team wants to add to his defensive versatility. Last summer, the 21-year-old received his first extended look at High-A and held a .287/.381/.535 line with 17 doubles and 15 home runs. At the end of the summer, Isaac was given a brief 31-game taste of Double-A, where he posted a .211/.346/.349 line with three home runs. He will likely open the season with Double-A when cleared for action.
