Travis Bazzana 2025 second base prospect rankings

Rankings season is in full swing, and I’m diving into my second base prospect rankings next. At FantraxHQ, I rank 400 prospects to help all you dynasty addicts dominate your leagues. Second base is the deepest that we have seen the position in the last 5 years at least. At the big-league level, the position is routinely filled with converted shortstops, largely due to the lack of impact second base prospects. That should change in the very near future with this current crop of talented prospects. This list has everything: top end talent, depth, youth, etc., and I am excited to see how this translates to today’s MLB environment.

These second base prospect rankings are derived from my own analysis and crafted with a focus on fantasy baseball. While I appreciate resources like MLB’s Top 100 or Baseball America’s Top 100, my rankings are all about fantasy baseball potential. Defense is great, but it doesn’t score you fantasy points or win categories.

If you aren’t playing your dynasty leagues on Fantrax, you’re missing out on the deepest player pool and most customization around. Just starting out in a dynasty league? Then check out our Top-400 Overall Fantasy Prospects and Top-500 Dynasty League Rankings.

Here are a few notes on how I approach my rankings:

  • Fantasy Focused: These rankings are exclusively based on a player’s fantasy potential and my analysis of their value in fantasy leagues.
  • Criteria: Stats matter, Statcast data and park factors are weighted, injuries impact rankings, and future team context is considered. However, these rankings are a snapshot in time of a player’s projected future fantasy value.
  • Position Eligibility: Players with multiple positions are ranked at their primary position based on where they played the most games in the minors. For example, Kevin McGonigle and Luke Keaschall appear in our SS rankings.
  • Your Team, Your Vision: Use these rankings as a guide, not a gospel. Your fantasy team is your own, and you should rank and draft prospects based on your own evaluations and strategy.

Top 20 Second Base Prospect Rankings

20: Caleb Durbin | Milwaukee Brewers | Level: AAA | Age: 24

Few players made a bigger impact in the Arizona Fall League than Caleb Durbin, whose record-breaking speed was on full display. The 5’6”, 185-pound second baseman set a new AFL single-season stolen base record with 29 swipes, further cementing his reputation as an elite baserunner. His game is straightforward: reach base, cause havoc, and cross home plate. While he may not fit every fantasy manager’s ideal profile, Durbin has a legitimate shot at winning Milwaukee’s starting second base job in 2025—an ideal landing spot for a player with his skill set. The Brewers were one of baseball’s most aggressive teams on the basepaths last season, swiping 217 bags (second-most in MLB). By contrast, Durbin comes from the Yankees organization, which ranked near the bottom in steals with just 88. A shift to Milwaukee’s run-friendly philosophy could maximize his fantasy impact. Durbin won’t provide much power, his 22 career minor league home runs over four seasons make that clear—but his speed, on-base ability, and potential for high run production make him an intriguing late-round fantasy option.

19: Chase Meidroth | Chicago White Sox | Level: AAA | Age: 23

When the White Sox acquired Chase Meidroth in the Garrett Crochet trade, they landed an MLB-ready second baseman with well-rounded skills. Though his listed 5’10”, 170-pound frame might be generous, he still hit .293 with an absurd .437 OBP in 2024. His elite on-base skills stem from an 18.8% walk rate and a remarkable 105-to-71 BB/K ratio. Power isn’t his strength, graded at 40, though he still hit seven homers last season. His contact skills are exceptional, boasting a 3.2% swinging strike rate, tied with Chandler Simpson for the lowest in the minors. A 94% zone-contact rate and 18.3% O-swing % show that he makes frequent contact and rarely chases. His frame doesn’t suggest much power growth, so he may max out at 10-15 homers. However, his Statcast data tells a different story, with a 34% hard-hit rate, 88.6 mph average exit velocity, and 108.1 mph Max EV. While not elite, those numbers are better than expected given his build. The main downside is his high groundball rate, hitting nearly 50% of balls on the ground with a 2-to-1 GB/FB ratio. Rarely would I suggest a contact-driven player hit the ball in the air more, but with his skill set, pulling the ball in the air could significantly boost his production. Roto players should target him now, while points league managers may want to wait and see.

18: Welbyn Francisca | Cleveland Guardians | Level: A | Age: 18

Welbyn Francisca made a name for himself in 2024 by hitting .328 in rookie ball before earning a promotion to Low-A Lynchburg, where he hit .325. The teenage switch-hitter has well-rounded tools, including a 55-grade hit tool, 45 power, and 55 speed. In 74 games, he totaled 27 extra-base hits and 19 stolen bases, showing an exciting mix of contact and speed. He also posted a strong walk-to-strikeout ratio, walking 11.7% of the time while striking out just 15.6%. His 9.5% swinging strike rate and 81% contact rate suggest he’ll at least be a batting average asset, likely with strong on-base skills and run production. Despite his listed height discrepancies—MLB at 5’8” and Baseball America at 5’11”—his above-average bat speed helps him tap into more power than expected. He consistently barrels the ball and produces solid exit velocities while adjusting well to off-speed pitches for his age. While his profile leans more hit over power, he has the potential to contribute in at least three fantasy categories.

17: Thomas Saggese | St. Louis Cardinals | Level: MLB | Age: 22

Thomas Saggese made his MLB debut in 2024 for the Cardinals and perfectly embodies the definition of a grinder. Despite hitting .306 across the Rangers and Cardinals organizations in 2023, his prospect pedigree remained undervalued. Even after slashing .312/.361/.506 with 15 homers and 12 steals in 2022, he ranked just 16th on the Rangers’ top 30 list. He followed that up with 26 home runs, 66 extra-base hits, and 111 RBIs in 2023, yet still missed MLB’s Top 100 list. Baseball America finally recognized him, ranking him 85th preseason in 2024. His biggest flaw is a low 7% walk rate, and while his 23% strikeout rate isn’t terrible, it could be better. His Statcast numbers are solid but not elite, posting an 87 mph average EV and a 108.2 mph Max EV. Those aren’t bad, but they don’t jump off the page either. It remains a mystery why a player with this production is only now gaining recognition. He may not have superstar upside, but his high-floor skill set makes him a safe bet. And for what it’s worth—he doesn’t wear batting gloves, so you know he can hit.

16: Orelvis Martinez | Toronto Blue Jays | Level: MLB | Age: 23

Orelvis Martinez’s 80-game PED suspension in 2024 hurt his prospect stock, pushing him down this list. Despite that, he possesses some of the best power at the position, a rarity for second basemen. Martinez hit at least 28 home runs in each of his three minor league seasons from ages 19 to 21. Even with the delayed start in 2024, he slashed .267/.319/.514 with 17 homers and 19 doubles in 319 plate appearances. His strong lower half, leg kick, and plus bat speed help him generate consistent pull-side power. He has made strides in plate discipline, lowering his strikeout rate to 23% and increasing his walk rate to 12% in 2023. If you’re buying in, it’s because of his 60 to 65-grade power and elite exit velocities. With an 89.3 mph average EV, a 115.2 mph Max EV, and a 45.7% hard-hit rate, he ranks among the best at his position. His struggles against secondary pitches contribute to a concerning 17% swinging strike rate, but he destroys fastballs. If he refines his approach and improves his contact rates, his power should carry him to a 35+ homer upside at second base.

15: Nick Yorke | Pittsburgh Pirates | Level: MLB | Age: 22

Nick Yorke has had an up-and-down minor league career since being drafted in the first round of 2020. In 2024, everything finally clicked, and he started realizing his potential. His struggles in 2022 and 2023 were largely due to an elevated strikeout rate of 24-25% and a 12% swinging strike rate. Yorke made more consistent contact in 2024, lowering his swinging strike rate to 8% and increasing his overall contact rate by nearly 10%. Scouts have always liked his hand-eye coordination and graded his hit tool as a 50 or better. After struggling, he adjusted his approach and swing mechanics, which led to a breakout year. Traded from Boston to Pittsburgh, he caught fire, slashing .355/.431/.507 and earning a big-league promotion. His power has always been average, but he flashed some with 14 home runs across AA and MLB. His Statcast data is encouraging, with a strong 110.9 mph Max EV and an impressive 91.3 mph average EV. This shows he consistently makes hard contact, even without elite raw power. While Yorke may not become the superstar once projected, he has the tools to be a steady producer both on the field and in fantasy.

14: Juan Brito | Cleveland Guardians | Level: MLB | Age: 23

Juan Brito was a major riser in 2023, playing across three levels from A+ to AAA as a 21-year-old. He spent all of 2024 at AAA and flashed real star potential, despite a .256 average that doesn’t fully reflect his upside. Brito crushed 21 home runs and an impressive 40 doubles, ranking third in the minors in two-baggers. His gap-to-gap power as a switch-hitter was on full display, and those doubles could turn into more home runs as he matures. He also scored 92 runs, drove in 84, and stole 13 bases, making him a potential four-category roto contributor. The scouting grades don’t fully align with his production, as he’s given a 55-60 hit grade but only a 40-45 power grade. However, his numbers tell a different story, showing a player who maximizes his frame and generates strong contact. His swinging strike rate has remained 8% or lower at every minor league stop, suggesting he should hit for a higher average. The issue likely stems from his in-zone contact rate of 78.3% and a high 50% contact rate on pitches outside the zone. This means he’s putting too many weak balls in play rather than hunting for quality pitches. His 108 mph Max EV is solid, but his 87.7 mph average EV and 33% hard-hit rate show room for improvement. When he makes contact in the zone, he hits the ball hard, but he needs to be more selective to unlock his full potential.

13: Termarr Johnson | Pittsburgh Pirates | Level: AA | Age: 20

I’m admittedly lower on Termarr Johnson than most evaluators, possibly because he was one of the few high school hitters ever given an 80-grade hit tool before the draft. Sometimes, even with elite prospects, scouts simply get it wrong. Over his first three seasons, he’s hit .222, .244, and .237—far from what you’d expect from an elite hitter. So why is he ranked here? The talent is still undeniable, and if he figures it out, he could be a superstar. He ended 2024 by hitting .290 in September, which might be the start of his breakout. Reports indicate he was too focused on hitting home runs early on, leading to a max-effort swing and a strikeout rate of around 25% in his first two seasons. However, he’s made noticeable adjustments, lowering his strikeout rate to 21% in 2024 while improving his contact rate from the mid-60s to 71%. His 13% swinging strike rate remains high, but he balances it with elite plate discipline, posting walk rates of 20% or better in his first two seasons and 16% in 2024. Despite his struggles, he does many things well—he gets on base, takes walks, and stole 22 bases in 2024. The 2025 season will be crucial for Johnson; if he continues improving and hits .250 or better, he could rise quickly up this list, especially as a points league asset.

12: Luisangel Acuña | New York Mets | Level: MLB | Age: 22

As the younger brother of a former MVP, expectations are high for Luisangel Acuña. He made an immediate impact in the majors, hitting .308 in his first 40 plate appearances with plenty of flair. Unlike Ronald, Luisangel is a contact-first player with plus speed but less power. Scouts question his power potential, grading it as a 45 by MLB and a 40 by Baseball America. However, his hit tool and speed are undeniable, proven by nearly 200 stolen bases in four minor league seasons. He struggled at AAA in 2024, posting a career-low .258 average, but rebounded in the majors while filling in for Francisco Lindor. One reason for optimism is his 91 mph average exit velocity at the MLB level, with a 110 mph Max EV at AAA. For a 5’8″, 180-pound player, those numbers are elite. His swing features explosive wrists and extension like Ronald’s, but his 55% minor league groundball rate limits his power. If he elevates the ball more often, his power output could take a significant leap. He flashed this potential in the majors, posting a 40% flyball rate compared to 27% in the minors. If he maintains that approach, his .258/.299/.355 with seven homers and 40 steals at AAA could evolve into a .280/.410/.760 line with 15+ homers and 40-50 stolen bases.

11: Ronny Mauricio | New York Mets | Level: MLB | Age: 23

Before tearing his ACL in a Dominican Winter League game, Ronny Mauricio was one of the most hyped prospects entering 2024. He got his first taste of the majors, flashing his immense upside, but remains prospect-eligible due to limited at-bats. The injury delayed his progress, and the biggest disappointment was that he was hitting his stride when it happened. At AAA in 2023, he slashed .292/.346/.506 with 23 homers, 56 extra-base hits, and 24 stolen bases, looking like a future star. Before the injury, he was dominating Winter League pitching, hitting .441 with a .472 OBP. The timing couldn’t have been worse. Mauricio generates elite exit velocities, posting a 117 MaxEV and a 91 mph average in 2023. His natural leverage and bat path suggest 25-30 homer potential. He doesn’t walk much at 6%, and his strikeouts have fluctuated between 24-26%, but he made clear adjustments, lowering his K-rate to 18% in 2023. He also improved his swinging strike rate to 11% by focusing on making more contact. After a full year of recovery, his return remains uncertain, but if everything clicks, Mauricio could be one of 2025’s biggest fantasy sleepers.

10: Adael Amador | Colorado Rockies | Level: MLB | Age: 21

Adael Amador’s 2024 debut may have been rushed, despite his elite skill set. In 2023, he showcased strong offensive potential, slashing .287/.380/.495 while playing across three levels and finishing at AA. After excelling at A+, where he hit .302 with nine homers and 12 steals in 259 plate appearances, he earned a promotion to AA as one of the youngest players at the level. Though he initially struggled, he repeated AA in 2024, hitting .230/.343/.376 with 35 steals before making the jump straight to the majors. He hadn’t fully proven himself against AA pitching, but the Rockies’ confidence in him is clear. His bat-to-ball skills and approach stand out, walking more than he struck out before 2024. Even while struggling at AA, he posted a 13.6% walk rate and a 19% strikeout rate, the highest of his career. Amador receives 55-60 hit tool grades, and after adding strength, his power now projects closer to 50-grade. His minor league swinging strike rate sits at an elite 7%, and his contact rate hovered around 88% before his 2024 slump. He still needs more development, but if the Rockies continue their aggressive promotions, his ability to adjust quickly should help smooth the transition.

9: Brayden Taylor | Tampa Bay Rays | Level: AA | Age: 22

Brayden Taylor often gets overshadowed by other Rays prospects but deserves recognition as one of the best in the minors. While he lacks Xavier Isaac’s power or Carson Williams’ all-around talent, his skill set makes him a strong fantasy asset. Taylor possesses one of the best power-speed combos on this list, which was evident in 2024. Across 424 AA plate appearances, he totaled 20 home runs, 55 extra-base hits, 29 stolen bases, and 88 runs scored. His plate discipline is impressive, walking 15% of the time in both of his first two minor league seasons. The main concern is his elevated strikeout rate, which sat at 31.5% in 2023 and improved slightly to 27.8% in 2024. That strikeout rate contributed to his .250 batting average and .365 OBP despite otherwise strong production. His swinging strike rate has fluctuated but has settled at 11% for his minor league career. The strikeouts could limit his ceiling, but improved contact skills would elevate him to another level. If he refines his approach, Taylor has the tools to become a long-term points league stud with at least three-category upside.

8: Demetrio Crisantes | Arizona Diamondbacks | Level: A | Age: 20

Demetrio Crisantes is my breakout prospect pick for 2025 after an impressive 2024 season that looks like a draft steal. Selected in the seventh round, he has quickly emerged as a potential development success story for the Diamondbacks. At just 19, he slashed .341/.429/.492 across rookie ball and Low-A, adding seven home runs and 36 extra-base hits. Despite being considered an average runner, he swiped 30 bases, showing strong instincts on the basepaths. Crisantes excels offensively with an advanced approach, driving the ball to all fields while rarely swinging and missing. He struck out just three times in his senior season at Nogales High, highlighting his elite bat-to-ball skills. His smooth, fluid swing creates excellent rhythm and timing, allowing him to adjust well to off-speed pitches. His natural bat speed also generates more power than his frame suggests. The Diamondbacks believe his makeup and work ethic could develop him into a high-level offensive second baseman. His profile projects at least a 60-hit and 50-power grade, giving him exciting fantasy potential. Among 19-year-olds, he ranked 10th in wRC+ (144), trailing Kevin McGonigle and Robert Calaz but ahead of Walker Jenkins and Bryce Eldridge. He also ranked fifth in that group with a .921 OPS during his first full season. The Diamondbacks have a crowded infield pipeline, so his future role remains uncertain. However, if he keeps producing at this rate, he could climb the ranks quickly. I expect him to not only move up this list but also push for a Top 100 ranking.

7: James Triantos | Chicago Cubs | Level: AAA | Age: 21

James Triantos, the 2023 Arizona Fall League hitter of the year, possesses one of the best hit tools in the minors. He dominated the AFL, slashing .417/.495/.679 with a 1.174 OPS. Impressive even in the league’s hitter-friendly environment. That success carried into 2024, where he hit .300 with a .346 OBP across AA and AAA. His on-base percentage is lower due to a low 5.6% walk rate, which stems from his elite contact skills. Triantos recorded 36 extra-base hits while also stealing 47 bases, highlighting his all-around offensive ability. Power remains a question mark, with scouting reports giving him inconsistent grades, 35 (Fangraphs), 50 (MLB), and 40 (Baseball America). His exit velocities support those concerns, with an 85.9 mph average EV and a 104.7 mph max EV. Reports suggest he could still add strength, but his bat path is another issue. He puts far too many balls on the ground, with a 57.7% groundball rate at AAA. His career rate sits around 50%, limiting his power potential even further. Despite that, his elite contact skills and speed make him an intriguing late-round fantasy option. His skill set leans more toward roto leagues, where stolen bases hold greater value than in points formats.

6: Jace Jung | Detroit Tigers | Level: MLB | Age: 24

The younger brother of Josh, Jace Jung made his MLB debut in 2024, even getting some postseason experience with Detroit. In his brief stint, the lefty hit .241 while walking at an impressive 16% clip across 94 plate appearances. He faced elite big-league pitching but still held his own at the plate. In 2023, Jung launched 28 home runs but saw his total drop to 15 in 2024. Some speculate this decline resulted from a lingering wrist injury that required offseason surgery. His plate discipline remains a strength, contributing to a strong 16% walk rate at AAA last season. Jung profiles as a power-over-hit bat with 60-grade game power but consistently finds the barrel. His AAA season ended with a .258/.380/.461 slash line and 40 extra-base hits before his promotion. He managed his strikeouts well, posting a 22% K rate and a solid 10% swinging strike rate. However, he chases outside the zone too often at 23%, which affects his overall contact rate. A more selective approach could improve his 75% contact rate and lead to better in-zone power production. His exit velocities are above average but not elite, with an 87.5 mph average EV and a 111.4 mph max EV at AAA. Those numbers suggest solid power potential but fall short of elite sluggers like James Wood. The Tigers’ signing of Gleyber Torres creates a potential roadblock for playing time at second base. A shift to third base could provide more opportunities, where he should profile well enough defensively. A realistic projection for Jung in his first full MLB season is a .250 average with 25 home runs.

5. Luke Keaschall | Minnesota Twins | Level: AA | Age: 21

If you want to know what scouts mean by “dirtbag” or “gritty,” look no further than Luke Keaschall. He isn’t just a scrappy role player; Keaschall combines power, speed, and plus bat-to-ball skills. He checks all the boxes for fantasy baseball managers. In 2024, Keaschall ranked in the top 20 of all MiLB players in OPS and WRC+, posting a .903 OPS. He slashed .303/.420/.483 with 15 home runs and 23 stolen bases over the season. Only two MiLB players hit .300 or better, had 15+ home runs, and stole 20+ bases in 2024. Keaschall was one of them, alongside Kristian Campbell, MiLB hitter of the year and the #10 prospect in baseball. Keaschall is a personal favorite because, while he may not flash plus-plus tools, he has no weaknesses. His all-around game makes him valuable in both points and roto leagues.

4: Christian Moore | Los Angeles Angels | Level: AA | Age: 22

The eighth overall pick in the 2024 draft, Christian Moore, nearly made his MLB debut after being drafted by the Angels. Given their aggressive promotion strategy, it wouldn’t have been surprising if he reached the majors. His pro debut was electric, as he dominated Low-A pitching with a .545 average in two quick games. He then received an aggressive assignment to my hometown AA Rocket City Trash Pandas, where he immediately impressed. Moore recorded back-to-back four-hit games and two separate two-homer performances in his first three games. In just seven AA games, he smashed six home runs while slashing .347/.400/.584. That performance catapulted him up MLB’s Top 100 rankings to #68 overall entering 2025. Moore was one of the top all-around hitters in college, batting .375 with 34 home runs before the draft. So far, he has proven the Angels right, making an MLB call-up in 2025 a real possibility. The scouting reports highlight his elite bat speed and natural loft, projecting a legitimate 30-homer upside at the next level. However, he expanded the zone too much, which contributed to a 26% strikeout rate in 2024. A major improvement between his sophomore and junior seasons was reducing swing-and-miss issues significantly. Despite nearly 100 more at-bats as a junior, he cut his strikeouts by 20 compared to the prior season. The Angels excel at drafting players who handle aggressive promotions and adjust quickly to higher levels. Moore appears to be their next success story, possessing immense upside if he controls his strikeouts.

3: Michael Arroyo | Seattle Mariners | Level: A+ | Age: 20

Many reading this may not know Michael Arroyo, but let me introduce one of the most underrated prospects in baseball. Arroyo is built like a gymnast, compact yet impressively powerful for his size and frame. At just 19, he broke out at Low-A, earning a midseason promotion to A+. Across both levels, he slashed .285/.400/.509 with 23 home runs and 190 runs plus RBIs. As a teenager, he matched Bryce Eldridge in home runs while posting a better strikeout rate. He also recorded more hits than anyone his age and topped Sebastian Walcott and Samuel Basallo in extra-base hits. Additionally, Arroyo maintained a better strikeout rate than Lazaro Montes while ranking sixth at A+ in wRC+ (155). Despite that production, he ranked just 12th among Seattle prospects in MLB’s 2024 rankings (2025 ranks pending). However, he cracked the Top 100, landing at #98 entering 2025. His plate discipline is promising, with a 12% walk rate, 23% strikeout rate, and 11% swinging strike rate. Baseball America gives him a 60-hit grade, praising his intelligence and ability to handle velocity and off-speed pitches. His elite bat speed generates power beyond his current 50-grade rating, hinting at even more upside. Upon reaching A+, he improved further, hitting .291/.397/.519 with 12 home runs and 10 of his 18 steals. His size and mediocre defense may limit scouting grades, but his bat proves he belongs among top fantasy prospects. In a loaded Mariners system, Arroyo remains overlooked, but now might be the best time to invest.

2: Kristian Campbell | Boston Red Sox | Level: AAA | Age: 22

Where do I even start with Kristian Campbell? He was a fourth-round pick and unranked on every list before 2024. His rise from an unknown prospect to Minor League Hitter of the Year mirrors Ronald Acuña and Junior Caminero. In MLB’s recent poll, he even received votes for the #1 overall prospect, including from teammate Roman Anthony. His 2024 season was incredible, climbing three levels while dominating A+, AA, and AAA with a .330/.439/.558 slash line. He also posted a 20/20 season, pairing elite speed with power at every stop. Campbell’s approach was advanced, maintaining a 14% walk rate and a 19% strikeout rate with elite plate discipline. His minuscule 7% swinging strike rate at both AA and AAA highlights his exceptional bat-to-ball skills. Offensively, there isn’t anything he can’t do, and his profile shows virtually no weaknesses. A 111.2 mph MaxEV and a 46.2% hard-hit rate showcase his consistent ability to drive the baseball. His 89% zone contact rate proves he crushes strikes, and his 19% O-swing rate confirms he rarely chases. MLB re-ranked Campbell as the #7 overall prospect, while he landed #12 in my Top 400 Dynasty Prospects. His long-term fit with Boston remains unclear, but he profiles as a superstar second baseman. If he transitions to left field, he’ll join a deep position group but still provide elite fantasy contributions.

1: Travis Bazzana | Cleveland Guardians | Level: A+ | Age: 22

Travis Bazzana, the 2024 first-overall pick, became the first Australian-born player ever selected first in an MLB Draft. He joins exclusive company as one of two Top 100 prospects graded with a 70-hit tool, alongside Jacob Wilson. Wilson, notably, hit .433 between AA and AAA, reinforcing the rarity of such an elite hit grade. Bazzana’s offensive upside is special, blending advanced contact skills with power that stands out across all minor league hitters. Few players understand their swing, mechanics, and mental approach to hitting better than the Oregon State product. He showcased a dominant skill set in 2024, hitting .407 with 28 home runs and 16 steals in 60 games. His elite plate discipline led to 76 walks and only 37 strikeouts, producing a ridiculous 1.479 OPS. While he didn’t start as hot as Nick Kurtz or Christian Moore, there’s no real concern over his offensive ability. In 122 plate appearances at A+, he slashed .238/.369/.396 with 3 home runs and 7 doubles. He consistently makes hard contact, delivering elite exit velocities with an exceptional feel for the barrel. Finding more upside in the Top 100, especially at second base, is nearly impossible. The Guardians traded Andrés Giménez, fueling speculation that Bazzana could be pushed aggressively through the minors. Given his intelligence and skill, a mid-to-late season MLB debut isn’t out of the question. Whether in points or roto leagues, Bazzana’s talent makes him an elite prospect with undeniable fantasy potential. If not for Roki Sasaki, he’d likely be the clear FYPD #1 pick.
