Hidden Gems: Fantasy Baseball Players Poised for Explosive Value Surges at the MLB Trade Deadline
Coby Mayo – 1B/3B, Baltimore Orioles
Ryan O’Hearn is almost certainly out the door in Baltimore since he’s a free agent at the end of the season. That will open up first base and DH reps in Baltimore, and you’d have to think they want to get Mayo some full-time reps, especially after watching Kyle Stowers put together an All-Star season in Miami after the Orioles didn’t give him consistent reps and then traded him away. Mayo is only 23 years old and has been producing of late in a limited sample size. Now could be the time for him to flourish, or Baltimore could choose to give those reps to top prospect Samuel Basallo – C/1B, Baltimore. Or, let’s be honest, they could just bring Ryan Mountcastle off the IL and let him play regularly for the remainder of the season to see if he has a place on this team in 2026. Of course, if the Orioles also trade Ramon Urias, then Mayo has yet another path to full-time at-bats.
