Please see our player page for Emil Morales to see projections for today, the next 7 days and rest of season as well as stats and gamelogs designed with the fantasy baseball player in mind.

Phillies OF Justin Crawford (21, AAA) has three home runs and three stolen bases over his last five games. His season-long line is .333/.409/.454 with seven home runs and 43 stolen bases in 54 attempts. Still seems underrated to me in a general kind of way across the lists, and Philadelphia’s front office is complicit in that. Nick Castellanos is under contract for $20 million in 2026, but he comes off the books after that and has been mostly awful this season, posting a negative WAR (-0.7) and .294 on base percentage in 128 games. The team’s best roster for 2026 would probably have a cheap Crawford in left field and Castellanos on someone else’s payroll. Heck that might be true for this year. I realize things are pretty good on the big league side in Philadelphia, but leaving Crawford out of his post-season push feels like a mistake to me.

Complex League games have begun, so there’s about to be a run on pop-up prospects such as Prince Fielder’s son. You read that right; I didn’t mean to say Cecil. Time remains undefeated. 

I don’t have super big feelings after three games, but I do think you should consider adding young Fielder (Jadyn), Royals SS Yandel Ricardo, Dodgers SS Emil Morales, and Cardinals SS Yairo Padilla if they’re available in your league. Fielder should be lowest on that list, priority-wise.

1. C OF Dalton Rushing | 24 | AAA | 2025

I started this list thinking it might be impossible for any of these guys to crack baseball’s best lineup this season, but there’s a non-zero chance Rushing winds up an opening day outfielder in Los Angeles. They’ll certainly bring in a veteran or two, but his primary competition today would be Andy Pages and James Outman. A left-handed hitter at 6’1” 220 lbs, Rushing hit 26 home runs in 114 games across Double and Triple-A last season, slashing .271/.385/.512 on the strength of his trademark patience at the plate.

Astros 3B Zach Dezenzo (24) debuted last night after graduating Triple-A in just 11 games. He slashed .391/.472/.739 with four home runs and three stolen bases in those 11 games, so kudos to the ‘Stros for waving him onward to the majors. Dezenzo’s a large dude at 6’4” 220 lbs and brings easy power from the right side. Heads up in the Crawford boxes.
