BALLER MOVE: Stash in Deeper Leagues
CALL-UP ETA: June
ANALYSIS: San Diego Padres third base prospect Graham Pauley made his major league debut earlier this spring but was optioned to Triple-A on May 4. However, he could be nearing his return to the big leagues and is worth stashing in deeper formats.
In his brief 13-game stint in the majors, he launched two home runs but struggled to find consistency with just four hits during this stretch.
Through 40 games at Triple-A, he has struggled to hit with a .223 AVG but has showcased his elite eye at the plate with a stellar 28:31 BB:K ratio. In addition, he has launched six long balls and has begun to find his footing in the batter’s box with a .286 AVG in his past five games.

Last summer, he started at Single-A and finished the season at Double-A, holding a strong .308/.393/.538 line through 127 games.
Pauley is worth stashing in NL-only leagues but should be left on the waiver wire in shallow leagues until he officially rejoins the San Diego roster.
