Even as a 50-grade hit tool bat, Bolte could blossom into an exciting player for fantasy purposes. Cayden Wallace, 3B Kansas City Royals. Harrington seems likely to stay a starter and with his mid 90s heater that gets swings-and-misses and good secondaries.

Posted January 26, 2022 One of my leagues: ROUND 1 1.1 - Marcelo Mayer SS BOS 1.2 -- Kahill Watson SS MIA 1.3 - Jordan Lawler SS ARI 1.4 - Jack Leiter SP TEX 1.5 - Brady House SS WSH 1.6 - - Cristian Vaquero OF WSH 1.7 - Henry Davis C PIT 1.8 - Matt McLain SS CIN 1.9 Colton Cowser OF BAL 1.10 - Sal Frelick OF MIL 1.11 - Jackson Jobe SP DET Then there are C-Tier prospects those are the guys that span from about the 75th overall prospect to about 150. (Eric), Matt McLain will likely end up being selected in the first round twice. When he figures it out he can be a perennial 30+ homer bat, especially being a left-handed batter who can deposit balls over that comically short right-field porch in Yankee Stadium. This is a potential #1 overall prospect if the power gets up into the 20+ homer range. With more and more fantastic content being put out around the entire industry, prep season is essentially. He has a compact, but quick swing and hits to all parts of the field. (Clegg), Drafted: #227 Oberall | From: Coastal Carolina, Eric Brown may have an unconventional setup and swing, but he makes it work. We will have to wait and see on the durability, but a solid SP4 with upside for more is definitely in the cards.

(Clegg), Drafted: #56 Overall | From: Palo Alto HS (CA), If youre looking for an upside pick outside the top-25 in your FYPDs, Henry Bolte is a solid target. If hes available around pick 30 in your FYPD, Id be tempted. He could easily grow into 20-25 home runs. The strong and athletic outfielder possesses above-average to plus speed and those tools showed up frequently during his collegiate career at the University of Arkansas. He will be a nothing burger in the speed department, but he could become a middle-of-the-order masher for you. (Cross), Overall, Jud Fabian is a talented player on both sides of the ball. (Clegg), Max Wagner had a monster season at Clemson but isnt really being talked about in fantasy circles. He is a high-floor type arm with a good chance to stick as a starter. Theres Josh Jung upside in the bat if everything clicks, making him a solid back-end top-10 FYPD selection. His hit tool can rival any prep hitter in the entire class. He likely moves to the hot corner, but is athletic enough to stick at shortstop if his team chooses to do so. He has the normal issues that taller players have and its just getting those massive levers in sync. Regardless of whether he remains at shortstop or moves to second base, Watson projects to be a major impact bat. Arizona has become a place you want to draft their pitchers because they do a great job of harnessing stuff. Second Basemen.

Think of a high strikeout SP5, he should be relatively quick to the majors as well so that is a bonus. I am a massive fan of Masyn Winn and there is a non-zero shot that Nazier Mule is the next Masyn Winn. (Cross), Daniel Susac has a stronger chance to stick behind the plate than Parada and also has an intriguing profile at the plate. Baez is an average runner who is capable of sticking in center field long term. There are the ingredients here for a solid fantasy starter. He will prove to be a great value to you in FYPDs. Sweeney makes elite contact and hits the ball extremely hard from the left side of the plate. DeLauter is a big and strong 64 outfielder with plus or better raw power and above-average to plus speed as well.

Look at Brandon Pfaddt, Blake Walston, Ryne Nelson and there will be more to come. I think it best applies here because unlike a real-life prospect list we arent basing it off the 20-80 scout scale. Hes not going back to Vandy next year, and if he plays in the independent league why cant I take him? (Clegg), Admittedly, Im a bit higher than most on Brock Jones, but he has a very fantasy-friendly skillset. Calaz is a million miles away but with the Rockies recent hits on IFAs makes me more likely to be in on Calaz. Enmanuel Bonilla, OF Toronto Blue Jays. Our focus this year is on 2022 draft. (Clegg).

(Eric), From: James Madison HS (VA) | Drafted By: Chicago Cubs, Without question, the prospect that has done the most to raise his stock since the draft has been James Triantos of the Cubs. Holliday has a better hit tool, and I think will also run higher OBPs. At Arkansas, Wallace posted a .298 batting average and a .387 OBP to pair with his 16 home runs and 12 stolen bases in 2022.

Hes like Fabian in that his upside is as high as anyone on this list, but he also might be nothing more than a bag of tools. Mayer could grow into plus power as he already displays great raw power. (Chris), From: Louisville | Drafted By: Milwaukee Brewers (Traded to BOS), Originally drafted by Milwaukee, Alex Binelas came to the Red Sox at the trade deadline as one of the return pieces in the Hunter Renfroe deal. I think Baltimore gets him to cut down on his in-zone whiffs and that could be enough to kickstart the hype train. I dare you! Lile is an average to above-average runner but the power is more of the gap to gap variety presently. I just dont know how to properly rank him. Davis bat is legit and I do not think playing catcher hurts his fantasy stock. You can follow Jason on twitter at @JRBecks previous post Anyway, Barriera is a bit smaller at 511/170 but still has projection left on his frame and already possesses a great fastball/slider combination with a decent feel for a fading changeup. Media Credit: Zac BonDurant/Icon Sportswire. With that power he will post solid contact-rates to go along with a patient approach that will give him a bump in OBP formats. He has a smooth swing from the left side of the plate and has great mechanics with his swing. I wouldnt be surprised to see Holliday posting .280 seasons with a 10% walk rate with 30 homers, this is obviously a 90% percentile outcome but its a slightly more appealing package. 47. 1. He generates natural loft with his swing and has performed well against high-end pitching. He has shown exciting stuff, headlined by a filthy slider, but has a limited track record and is coming off Tommy John surgery. I play in a few of those leagues, and while I dont enjoy that little wrinkle I note it because those players do make their way onto my list, so just ignore that set of players if your league doesnt allow you to select them.

There is a strong chance Melendez could provide 30 home runs with a serviceable batting average at the big league level. He may not have the velocity that Joyce does, but it is still a dominant pitch. The 63 Venezuelan outfielder has demonstrated a good feel for hitting from the right side and has flashed above-average or better power already with projection for more as he fills out his frame. He may ultimately shift off of shortstop but if he does its because he added more power to his profile. Mark my words, five or six years from now, well be drafting Jobe ahead of Mize, Skubal, and Manning in fantasy drafts. He is ranked behind Parada for me because I am more confident in Parada sticking behind the plate. Not to mention he hit 18 home runs with a .550 batting average at the plate. There is elite power and speed potential here, and thats what we are chasing. Hubbart doesnt have the sort of stuff that will blow you away, but what he does have is the ability to get swings and misses with that stuff. (Eric), From: Baylor School (TN) | Drafted By: Tampa Bay Rays, Cooper Kinney was the Rays second-round pick who possess a very good bat. He consistently sits mid-90s and can get up to 98 mph, spinning the pitch extremely well.

He throws a lot of strikes and sits mid-90s with his fastball. Fujinami is a ready-made starter that you can get later in your drafts. Hes in a good organization to maximize his talents. Jackson Holliday, SS Baltimore Orioles. However, the hit tool is currently a concern along with his propensity to chase too many pitches outside of the zone. I do question how he will fare against pro pitches because he feasted on college arms. He has impressive strength that gives him the potential at average game power.

After having only five rounds in the 2020 draft, this years draft was up to 20 rounds with plenty of great talent throughout. Muncy shows a good feel to hit and has developed a ton of power. (Cross), A robust final season at Michigan put Clark Elliott on the map as a top-100 prospect for the 2022 draft. Romero is pretty famous out here in SoCal as a good defensive shortstop with the ability to make a ton of contact. The command will allow him to not post high walk-rates keeping his WHIP under control.

I just question if he will make enough contact, but if he does he will make this spot look foolish. There were rumblings about his asking price and character issues, but I dont like to speculate on the latter without knowing the person myself. He also uses a slider that has the potential to develop into a better pitch than the curve. In his 2021 season at Wright State, Black walked 39 times while only striking out 25 times. Instead of a 25-20 upside that I think Jones has, Cermak is in the 20 homers and 10-12 stolen-base bucket of players. Druw Jones is the son of a possible hall of famer, and is also a good player in his own right. The range of outcomes with Green are pretty massive. Has a passion for dynasty formatted leagues. Another MLB draft is in the books so that means a fresh batch of FYPD rankings to dive into. I think there is some untapped potential here with Wagner as he had 358 plate appearances in his entire collegiate career at Clemson. The power/speed blend isnt massive, but Thompson could be an average game power type with 5-10 steals as well with the added bonus of the Coors Field boost. He does get a bit over-aggressive at times but the Coors factor should really help raise his batting average. 1. Justin Crawford, OF Philadelphia Phillies. Collette Calls: 2023 NL West Bold Predictions The payoff may be well worth it in the end. Top Pitcher: Daniel Espino (SP - CLE) Since we didn't have a pitcher make the top 10 above, I figured I'd .

I will always bet on players with great hit tools. His power showed up, but I do not expect it to be a huge part of his game at the professional level. I dont view him as anything more than a streamer that should be used in good matchups, too bad he cant pitch against his own team. As he fills out, hell likely be more of a 60-power, 50-run type but this could also be a plus hitter as well. Lawler will likely fall a couple of spots in your FYPDs too after his injury.

(Cross), Cayden Wallace wont wow anyone with his bat, but he could be a successful big league bat. Murphy will be a pitcher with the Braves but features a fastball, cutter, curveball, and changeup. Walcott has a nice swing with some room to add more power as he physically matures. Hoglund is a great mix of floor and ceiling. You will never confuse him for Trea Turner or prime Dee Strange-Gordon but he can pitch in 5-10 steals a season while hitting his fair share of homers.

The Cubs have done a solid job with arms as of recently so that is a nice bonus for both Cade Horton and anyone who rosters him. He makes consistent hard contact and controls the strike zone well. Grey and B_Don are back to cover 3B. A lot of Wallaces success will hinge on his ability to make contact.
