Because the calendar flips to June, the prospect world has been heating up, each with good and dangerous information. We sadly noticed two of the highest prospects from these stash rankings land on the minor league IL during the last week, however we additionally had just a few notable promotions as nicely.
Over the previous few days, we bought a mini-wave of prospect promotions with Adam Mazur, Connor Norby, and Justyn-Henry Malloy getting the calls to San Diego, Baltimore, and Detroit, respectively.
Keep in mind, stashing prospects must be completed strategically and varies from league to league. Do not depart your groups with out a lot depth simply since you need all of the high-upside prospects in your roster.

Fantasy Baseball Prospect Rankings Evaluation
Jasson Dominguez, New York Yankees
After recording 5 hits in his first six video games again (all within the first three video games), Jasson Dominguez has heated up over his final eight video games, hitting .400 with 4 house runs for Double-A Somerset. He’ll proceed his rehab with Triple-A Scranton Wilkes-Barre and will rejoin the Yankees quickly. The Yankees mentioned Dominguez would keep in Triple-A as soon as activated, but when he continues to mash, Dominguez will pressure their hand. I am nonetheless anticipating him again up by the tip of June.

Junior Caminero, Tampa Bay Rays
Sadly, we cannot be seeing Junior Caminero for one more month or two as a quad pressure will sideline the star third base prospect for 4-6 weeks. Caminero had been within the prime spot or near it in these stash rankings principally the whole season, however now the dialogue shifts from when he shall be as much as whether or not we must always even stash him. This all is dependent upon your league measurement. Should you play in a deeper league or have massive benches, I would maintain on to Caminero. However these enjoying in 10-12 crew leagues with out deep benches are most likely protected to chop him at this level.
James Wooden, Washington Nationals
The opposite large prospect damage during the last week was James Wooden, who’s at the moment on the injured listing with proper hamstring tightness. Wooden was cleared to do mild baseball exercise yesterday, which is encouraging, but in addition does not sign {that a} return to recreation motion is imminent. At this level, I am undecided we’ll see Wooden with the Nationals till after the all-star break. Stashing him is much like what I mentioned about Caminero above, however I would be extra keen to stash Wooden as he seemingly beats Caminero to the Majors by just a few weeks not less than.
Jackson Holliday, Baltimore Orioles
Jackson Holliday is starting to warmth up on the plate for Triple-A Norfolk. Over his final 10 video games, Holliday is slashing .364/.488/.667 with 4 doubles, two house runs, and a steal, pushing his on-base streak to 17 video games. Norby simply bought the decision to Baltimore, but when he struggles on the plate, it would not shock me to see Holliday Half 2 with Baltimore.

Noelvi Marte, Cincinnati Reds
The return of Noelvi Marte is drawing nearer. Marte is precisely 3/4 of the best way by way of his 80-game suspension and shall be eligible to return to Cincinnati’s lineup as early as June twenty seventh in opposition to the St. Louis Cardinals. In 2023, Marte completed with a .316/.366/.456 slash line, three house runs, and 6 steals in 123 plate appearances whereas persevering with to showcase his thrilling mix of contact, energy, and pace with a 46.1% hard-hit charge, 83% zone contact charge, and 91st percentile dash pace.
The Reds desperately want Marte’s bat again within the lineup, so anticipate him to get loads of runs as soon as he is again. Marte legitimately may present Prime 50 fantasy worth over the second half of the season.
Jordan Lawlar, Arizona Diamondbacks
Whereas it is a bummer to not have Caminero or Wooden call-ups any time quickly, it is not all dangerous on the prospect damage entrance as Jordan Lawlar has begun his rehab project with Arizona’s Complicated Stage affiliate. It should take him a few weeks to get constructed again up, however Lawlar ought to leap into the beginning lineup at shortstop as soon as prepared, spelling the light-hitting Kevin Newman to the bench. Lawlar’s upside is an early-round fantasy star, and he is coming off back-to-back seasons with not less than 16 house runs and 36 steals within the minors.
Deyvison De Los Santos, Arizona Diamondbacks
One other Diamondbacks prospect bat to regulate is Deyvison De Los Santos. The guide on De Los Santos has all the time been large energy, which I’ve seen firsthand, and questionable contact abilities. Nicely, he is completed a a lot better job making extra constant contact right here in 2024 with out sacrificing any energy. In 50 video games between Double-A and Triple-A this season, De Los Santos is slashing .352/.404/.643 with 15 house runs and a 22.1% strikeout charge.
The issue is that Noel has performed first base solely this season, and Christian Walker stands in his means. Barring an damage to Walker, De Los Santos’ path to enjoying time is both shifting again to the recent nook and taking Eugenio Suarez’s spot or forming a DH platoon with Joc Pederson.
Jose Tena, Cleveland Guardians
After receiving a cup of espresso with Cleveland in 2023, Jose Tena returned to Triple-A in 2024 and put collectively a stable .286/.339/.443 slash line with eight house runs and 7 steals throughout 229 plate appearances. He is been particularly sizzling during the last 30 days, slashing .352/.409/.571 with six house runs and 6 steals in 115 plate appearances. Given his skill to play second base, third base, and shortstop, we may see Tena again up with Cleveland quickly, however he is extra of a deep-league goal.
