Welcome back to another week of Top Dynasty Keepers.
The regular season will soon be coming to and end, which means the major league debuts of two of the games top prospects will also be coming to an end.
VERY DIFFERENT PLAYERS
This week we are going to take a look at Riley Greene of the Detroit Tigers and Tristan Casas of the Boston Red Sox.
Both players entered the season as two of the top prospects in the game. Riley was a consensus Top 10 prospect, entering the season ranked fourth by Baseball America, fifth by MLB.com and sixth by Baseball Prospectus.
Greene was one of the top hitting prospects in the 2019 draft and has remained so since become a professional.
Meanwhile, Casas entered the 2022 season as the 19th best prospect by Baseball America, 16th my MLB.com and 44th by Baseball Prospectus. Unlike Greene, Casas was not drafted because of his hit tool. He was drafted in the first round of the 2018 draft because he can hit the ball a long way.
GETTNG THEIR FEET WET
While Greene and Casas are very different players, both have one thing in common – they have both reached the majors this season.
So far, their debuts have been a mix of good and bad. Both have struggled at the plate at times. Greene is currently hitting under .250 while Casas is barely hitting about .100 during his brief time with the Red Sox.
But both players have shown off the tools – Greene’s overall hitting skill and Casas’ massive power – that got them promoted from the minors.
So let’s take a look at the two rookies.
Please, blog, may I have some more?
