Happy Saturday, Razzball faithful! It was an evening of excitement, mixed with a bit of bated breath as the most patient fantasy managers in the universe (aka the ones that stashed Bubba Chandler for longer than most of us did) finally got to experience the sweetness of the fruit of self-control that had been rotting […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?

Welcome back to the Jhosty/Nxon interviews. I’m your host David Brinkley and I just want to catch those of you up who are just joining us. Last week on Jhosty/Nxon, the Red Sox were having Jhosty/Nxon take reps at 1st base, and internally they were talking about promoting him. Then, after a break-in at the […]

Note: Anyone promoted during the current season is ineligible for the stash list.

1. Orioles C Samuel Basallo (20, AAA)

I’ve given Baltimore a lot of guff in this space over the last few years for how they manage their roster, but this delayed promotion is easy to understand. Basallo turns 21 on August 13, so even though the bat was ready, and the roster had a clear need behind the plate, they had every incentive to hold Basallo back and give him a shot at rookie of the year in 2026. He’s got 23 home runs in just 72 Triple-A games and would be my pick for best fantasy rookie if selecting today.

Graduated from Stash List #6: Chase’s Fire or Colby Jacks Cheese: Chase Burns, Brady House, Harry Ford.

Note: Anyone promoted during the current season is ineligible for the stash list.

1. Guardians OF Chase DeLauter (23, AAA)

Slashing .314/.434/.500 with three home runs and more walks (17.9%) than strikeouts (12.3%). If I have to pick just one of these guys to swing some standings the rest of the way, it’s DeLauter by a mile. Cleveland might drag their feet a bit, but they’ve struggled like crazy to keep this guy on the field, and it makes sense to get him on a big league travel and rest schedule as soon as possible now that he’s locked in. Plus, it takes a while these days for young guys to adjust. Best to get him going now so he can help in August and beyond.

Graduated from Stash List #5: House Party or Moore Is Better: Roman Anthony, Christian Moore, Jacob Misiorowski

Note: Anyone promoted during the current season is ineligible for the stash list.

 

1. Reds RHP Chase Burns (22, AAA)

Made his Triple-A debut this week and walked four batters but still surrendered just two runs in 5.1 innings and struck out seven Iowa Cubs. I wouldn’t give him more than five starts at the level, and I doubt the Reds will. They paid the man $9.25 million to sign on the dotted line. No good reason to spend a pile of pitches in the minors.

1. OF Roman Anthony | 20 | AAA | 2025

A left-handed hitter at 6’2” 200 lbs, Anthony slashed .291/.396/.498 with 18 home runs and 21 stolen bases in 119 games across the top two minor league levels in 2024, setting himself up to fight for a spot in spring training. He got just 35 games at Triple-A but slashed .344/.463/.519 there and doesn’t have anything left to prove in the minor leagues. Here’s a bit of what I wrote when I ranked him atop this list last season: 

“I’m just trying to say he’s a player in flux and reminds me a little of Ronald Acuña at this stage in the sense that he’s got more than one path ahead of him as a hitter and could become a total-package type who slashes .300/.400/.500 on the regular.”

So far so good on this one.
