Unveiling Baseball’s Future Legends: Meet the 2026 Fantasy Prospects Set to Dominate Your League

2) JJ Wetherholt — 2B, St. Louis Cardinals

Why he can help: There’s a few prospects who garnered consideration for the second spot, but ultimately, Wetherholt’s situation makes him deserving of the nod. He was excellent in 2025 with a .931 OPS, 17 homers and 23 stolen bases while splitting time in Double-A Springfield and Triple-A Memphis. The 23-year-old has one of the best hit-tools in the minors with a smooth, line-drive swing from the left side, and there’s enough strength with loft in the swing to project above-average power to go with it. He has above-average speed as well, so a 20-plus steal season is well within reach. It appears that Wetherholt is not only going to be the starting second baseman to open the season, but potentially hit at the top of the order, as well. Long story short, Wetherholt just might have the best combination of ceiling and floor of any prospect in 2026.
