Lotta movement to cover this week. The Royals lineup looks pretty different these days with Jac Caglianone beefing up the middle. Vinnie P is heating up with the weather, posting a 167 wRC+ over his last 16 games. Maikel Garcia and Bobby Witt Jr. are both in rhythm right now, so this team could go on a nice summer run. They’re 32-and-29 despite scoring six fewer runs than the Chicago White Sox this season.

Houston Astros Top 10 Prospects For 2025 Fantasy Baseball
January 8, 2025 | Fantasy Baseball Prospects, Featured | 10 Commentsby: The Itch
1. 3B Cam Smith | 22 | AA | 2025
The 14th overall pick by the Cubs in this summer’s draft, Smith skipped blissfully through the A-levels in just 27 games, blasting six home runs in 15 Low-A games and slashing .333/.421/.500 in 12 High-A games before rounding out the season with five games with Double-A Tennessee. Houston saw enough to target the 6’3” 224 lb righty in the Kyle Tucker trade. Smith gives the club a ready-soon third-base prospect in the wake of Alex Bregman’s departure, though with Isaac Paredes also in town, Smith may have to try some outfield.

Rolling In The Deep: When There’s A Will…
August 23, 2024 | 2024 Fantasy Baseball, Rolling In The Deep | 2 Commentsby: Laura Holt
Well, it’s been another rough week on the injury front — I don’t know about you, but I’m in a pretty frustrated place given that we still have a week left in August. The Austin Riley, Ketel Marte, and Zach Eflin IL trips, were, I’m afraid, the nails in the coffin for a couple of […]

Word on the street is Wood will be promoted to debut Monday at home against the Mets on ESPN. He went 3-for-5 with a walk and a double on Friday night. I’m going to leave him here and take the list to 11 just to cover all the bases.
Please, blog, may I have some more? Top 30 Third Base Prospects for Dynasty Fantasy Baseball in 2022
February 2, 2022 | Fantasy Baseball Prospects | 11 Commentsby: The Itch
Thirty third basemen thumping? What is this the Twelve Days of Christmas?
Well, yes and no. The gifts in that song, except for the golden rings, seem awful, and the third base position has gone down something of a barren road the last few seasons. Vlad Jr. wound up at first base. Nolan Arenado wound up in St. Louis. He’s still fine, and Anthony Rendon is still good, probably, when healthy, and there’s still elite bats at the top, but in general, this position needs a talent infusion from a fantasy baseball perspective, and it might be about to get just that. Are there five golden bats in this group? We’ll have to peel our way to that truth one day at a time.
Please, blog, may I have some more? Houston Astros Top 10 Prospects for 2022 Fantasy Baseball
January 2, 2022 | Fantasy Baseball Prospects | 21 Commentsby: The Itch
Nobody beats the book like Houston. Their prospect lists require close-reading and separate buckets of research because you don’t want to miss Jose Urquidy or Luis Garcia if you don’t have to. Jake Meyers and Chas McCormick both popped from relative obscurity onto fantasy baseball rosters in 2021, and that looks like the way it’s going to go with Astros’ prospects. I don’t know what it is that keeps their guys underrated in general. I guess losing the picks to the cheating scandal didn’t help, nor did the cheating scandal (though it would be pretty hard to argue that it didn’t HELP help in a macro sense). Doesn’t matter for our purposes. The Astros have proven they can teach hitting with buzzers or without. Although they’re not highly ranked around the chamber, and spots are at a premium on the big league roster right now, this list has some of my favorite sleepers for near-term fantasy value, especially at the top.
