The Tigers appear ready to let the 25-year-old run, and they’ll need it. Detroit ranks last in stolen bases this season despite being the best team in baseball. He’ll get regular time in center field and should continue to hit at the top of the order. He’s a savvy pickup with multi-category potential.
Ronny Mauricio, 2B, New York Mets (13% rostered)
Mauricio is the ninth-ranked prospect in the Mets organization, and after missing all of last season recovering from a torn ACL, he’s back in the big leagues. The Dominican infielder posted strong batted-ball rates in the minors before the injury, showcasing impressive bat speed and improving discipline. Standing at 6-foot-3, the second baseman has the tools to be a fantasy asset, possessing true 20/20 potential. He hit at least 20 homers in the minors from 2021 to 2023, along with swiping 55 bases.
