Fantasy Baseball Alert: Miguel Vargas’ Surge and Cole Young’s Debut Could Shake Up Your Team!
Robert Hassell III – OF, WAS: 6% rostered
(PROSPECT CALL UP, SPEED UPSIDE)
The Nationals called up Hassell last week after having to place both Jacob Young and Dylan Crews on the IL. So far, the former top prospect, who is one of the players who came over in the Juan Soto trade years ago, has gone 10-for-37 (.270) with one home run, six RBI, and one steals. He was hitting .288 with four home runs, nine steals, and a .742 OPS in Triple-A this season and had made clear gains in his exit velocity and shown a little bit more pop than in years past. I don’t expect him to hit for much power at the big league level, but he could be useful in deeper formats. Fantasy managers in deep leagues could also add Andrew Benintendi – OF, CWS (3% rostered). We know he’s not going to set the world on fire, but he’s going to play every day and had shown some solid power earlier in the season before getting hurt. It’s boring but functional in deeper formats.
