Unveiled: The 10 Rising Stars Who Could Redefine the MLB Playoff Race!
The 23-year-old has proven virtually all he can in Triple-A, but his dwindling defensive versatility — he has played just three games at third base and zero in the outfield with Baltimore this season — and lack of consistent production in the big leagues thus far paint an ominous picture for his future in the organization. But for a hitter as talented as Mayo, let’s not be too hasty in discarding the possibility that his breakout is just around the corner.
SS Brooks Lee, Minnesota Twins
Another player who should benefit from the deadline departures around him, Lee is primed to take over at shortstop full-time for the Twins in the wake of Correa’s trade to Houston. With the pitchers Minnesota opted not to trade (Ryan, Pablo Lopez, Bailey Ober) plus the new arms brought in (Taj Bradley, Mick Abel, Kendry Rojas), it’s reasonable to hold a favorable projection for this Twins rotation, lending optimism that contention in 2026 is not so farfetched, even after a dramatic amount of roster turnover at this year’s deadline.
