Last week, I discussed my […]

4 Hitters to Buy - Fantasy Baseball Dynasty Trade Targets

The 2023 season is coming to an end here in a couple weeks. If the 2023 season were a baseball team, the manager would have the closer warming up to come in and get those last few outs. But even though the days are dwindling, prep for 2024 is just beginning. That's one of the […]

Robert Gasser - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Outlook and Analysis

PROSPECT: Robert Gasser, SP, Milwaukee Brewers ANALYSIS: Over his last three starts, Robert Gasser has dominated to the tune of a 2.00 ERA, 0.94 WHIP, and 41.4% strikeout rate. Neither Wade Miley nor Adrian Houser are pitching poorly enough to lose their rotation spot, but Gasser should be the next man up if Milwaukee needs another starter down the […]

Justyn Henry-Malloy - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Outlook and Analysis

PROSPECT: Justyn Henry-Malloy, 3B/OF, Detroit Tigers ANALYSIS: With Parker Meadows now up with Detroit, you have to imagine that Justyn-Henry Malloy isn't too far behind.

Jordan Lawlar - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Outlook and Analysis

PROSPECT: Jordan Lawlar, SS, Arizona Diamondbacks ANALYSIS: We're officially on Jordan Lawlar watch. Is it a guarantee that he'll be up this year? No. But few players in the minors match his offensive upside, especially players that have a realistic shot at making the Major League debut this season. Lawlar is slashing .328/.417/.590 in 72 […]

Ceddanne Rafaela - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Outlook and Analysis

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. Ceddanne Rafaela launched his 13th Triple-A […]

Pete Crow-Armstrong - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Outlook and Analysis

PROSPECT: Pete Crow-Armstrong, OF, Chicago Cubs ANALYSIS: It's been a few weeks since Pete Crow-Armstrong was promoted to Triple-A Iowa and the 21-year-old outfielder hasn't stopped hitting.

Trey Cabbage - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Outlook and Analysis

PROSPECT: Trey Cabbage, OF, Los Angeles Angels ANALYSIS: I'm not suggesting you run out and stash Trey Cabbage right now, but he's certainly one to keep an eye on and could make an impact down the stretch if the Angels decide to give him another shot over the final six weeks of the season.

Given his power/speed blend, Crow-Armstrong has the upside to make a significant fantasy impact once he's […]

Jordan Lawlar - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Outlook and Analysis

PROSPECT: Jordan Lawlar, SS, Arizona Diamondbacks ANALYSIS: Last week, I didn't believe there was a high chance that Jordan Lawlar would be up with Arizona this season. Now I'm starting to think he might. Lawlar was recently promoted to Triple-A after slashing .263/.366/.474 with 23 doubles, 15 home runs, and 33 steals in the Double-A […]

Joey Loperfido - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Outlook and Analysis

PROSPECT: Joey Loperfido, OF, Houston Astros ANALYSIS: A prospect recently promoted to Triple-A that everyone should have on their radar is Houston's Joey Loperfido. The former 7th-round selection out of Duke has back-to-back productive seasons in the minors and is one of a handful of prospects to have more than 20 home runs and 20 […]
