Happy Monday, Razzball faithful! It was a tough headline to figure out this week.  I came very close to running with a Reid Detmers breakdown, especially after his 11-strikeout manhandling of the Royals on Saturday night. But the more I thought about it, the clearer it all became. It was time to get Pfaadt. And, […]

Happy Monday, Razzball faithful! “Well, somebody Tolle-d me that you had a boyfriend”? Uh, hey Las Vegas rock band “The Killers”, I wouldn’t necessarily call Payton Tolle a boyfriend, but if you said that I had a Fantasy Baseball mancrush? Well, that’d be a tough one to argue. And, dearest reader, I don’t know what […]

Happy Monday, Razzball faithful! And to think I was a bit worried about which lede to run with today. “Tarik Skubal has been traded” pic.twitter.com/ePvfQLylue — Talkin' Baseball (@TalkinBaseball_) August 2, 2026 Well, the big story of this trade deadline is one that already wrote itself. And the Tigers fans who were Tarik-fied to lose […]

Graduated from Stash List #6: Cauley Circles The Field: Luis Lara, Cameron Cauley

1. Yankees SS George Lombard Jr. (21, AAA) 

Jose Caballero has been cromulent as a short-term option at the six replacing Anthony Volpe, but Fangraphs lists him as a WAR negative on both offense and defense. His best position on a first-division roster is as a utility player. You could say the same about Ryan McMahon and his .278 on base percentage, although I might argue you could find a more versatile bench player with that roster spot. Lombard Jr. has adapted to Triple-A after a slow start at the level, slashing .308/.429/.617 with seven home runs, five stolen bases and a 23.3 percent strikeout rate over his last 30 games.

Happy NOT Monday, Razzball faithful! Maybe it’s because this is happening on a Thursday, and my entire vibe has been thrown off, but I have a confession to make. And it’s a doozy. Oh. Oh no. Did your favorite Razzball Starting Pitcher writer really do the unthinkable? Retire from his lengthy career to spend more […]

I’ve been happy to see Giants 1B OF Victor Bericoto (24) make the most of his scant opportunities while Harrison Bader rests a sore heel, especially over the past week or so as Bericoto has three home runs over his last seven games playing as a lineup regular for the first time. San Francisco should be looking to sell at the deadline, leaving Victor’s path to playing time wide open for the foreseeable future. Granted, they’ll probably shuffle the deck this off-season, but he’s got a potent enough bat to secure a long-term roster spot at the least.

Rangers SS OF Cameron Cauley (23) had a nice debut Monday night, starting at second base and drawing a walk before tripling in the seventh inning to help tilt the game for Texas. He didn’t draw a start on Tuesday, but Corey Seager was removed from the game before his first at bat with a back injury, so it stands to reason that Cauley will be in the lineup quite a bit moving forward. Get him where you can fit him. 20 stolen bases in half a season is a definite maybe.

1. SS JJ Wetherholt | 23 | AAA | 2026

A left-handed hitter at 5’10” 190 pounds, Wetherholt features double-plus contact skills along with plus power and speed. He topped the stash list several times down the stretch last year as I thought he’d earned a big league debut by slashing .306/.421/.510 with 17 home runs and 23 stolen bases in 109 games across Double and Triple-A. He also drew 72 walks against 73 strikeouts. Should break spring training with an every day role in St. Louis and make a run at rookie of the year.

Graduated from Prospect News Stash List #9: Wake Up With Snelling Salts: Samuel Basallo, Dylan Beavers, Jhostynxon Garcia, Bubba Chandler, Nolan McLean 

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

 

1. Cardinals SS JJ Wetherholt (22, AAA) 

St. Louis has struggled to sort its pieces for about a decade, so it’s no surprise we haven’t seen Wetherholt in the majors despite him lighting the Triple-A level on fire for a month, slashing .301/.391/.628 with nine home runs and five stolen bases in 29 games. He’s my pick for 2026 National League Rookie of the Year, and I think he’ll open the season with the big league club, but it’s always a little scary waiting on a young Cardinal to get his chance to take flight.
