BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 35% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Early this season, many top prospects have struggled, but don't tell that to Casey Schmitt, who has assaulted Major League pitching in the short time he's been in The Show. Through his first 10 games, the 24-year-old is batting .400 with a .650 slugging percentage to go along with good counting stats and even better Statcast numbers.
Casey Schmitt is making big waves. 🌊
In his first 3 career games, he has 8 hits, 2 HR, 4 RBI, and 5 runs scored!

Schmitt has a 45.5% hard-hit rate, a 90.7 MPH average exit velocity, and, most impressively, a 111.6 MPH max exit velocity which displays an elite skill that few middle infielders possess. Will he sustain this torrid pace? Obviously not, but Schmitt has a solid minor-league track record of hitting for both average and power with plus plate-discipline numbers. He should be the top priority in leagues where he's available.
