BALLER MOVE: Stash in All Leagues
CALL-UP ETA: Monday, July 1 - confirmed.
ANALYSIS: Washington Nationals outfield prospect James Wood is set to make his major league debut on Monday, July 1.
Wood, a 21-year-old outfielder, has been a standout in the minor leagues this season. His performance is nothing short of spectacular, with a stellar .353/.463/.595 slash line, 10 long balls, 37 RBI, 10 swiped bags, and a 40:42 BB:K ratio at Triple-A.

This is a significant improvement when compared to his production at Double-A last summer when he hit for a pedestrian .248/.334/.492 slash line with 18 home runs, 55 RBI, 10 stolen bases, and a much worse 39:124 BB:K ratio.
With Wood on his way to the major leagues, he is now a must-roster player in all leagues. With his ability to be a five-category contributor, he could be a league winner during the second half of the summer.
