Washington Nationals catching prospect Harry Ford has begun to snap out of his cold streak at Triple-A and is emerging as a deep-league stash target. Over his last nine contests at Rochester, the young catcher has posted 256/.356/.359 line with a .715 OPS. During this stretch, Ford has hit four doubles while holding a 9:6 K:BB. Prior to this recent improvement at the dish, the 23-year-old backstop carried a much lower .186/.317/.245 line through his first 28 games of the MiLB season. Ford made his MLB debut during the second half of the 2025 season with the Seattle Mariners but appeared in only eight games while serving in a bench role. If Ford can maintain this pace, the Nationals could look to give their No. 5-ranked prospect his first extended look at MLB pitching before the All-Star break. Managers in deeper two-catcher leagues should continue to monitor his development at Triple-A.

Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Luis Lara continues to swing a scorching hot bat at Triple-A Nashville and enters Week 10 of the season as a priority stash target for managers in all leagues. Through 55 games at Triple-A this season, Lara has posted an incredible .345/.452/.510 slash line with eight doubles, two triples, seven home runs, and 18 stolen bases. During this stretch, the young outfielder has shown a strong eye at the dish, posting a 31:38 K:BB. His power production is even more impressive, as Lara only went deep two times over 136 games in Double-A last season. Seeing Lara maintaining an elite eye at the plate while hitting for power against the top pitching in the minor leagues is a great sign for his outlook. While the Brewers outfield is crowded at the moment, Lara's five-category profile makes him a worthy stash candidate in all standard leagues.

The top-ranked prospect in baseball, Jesus Made, has yet to slow down at Double-A and is putting himself in serious consideration to debut this season. The Milwaukee Brewers shortstop prospect has appeared in 45 Double-A contests this season at age 19 and has looked very comfortable. During this stint, he has posted a strong .280/.355/.460 slash line with eight doubles, four triples, six home runs, and 19 stolen bases. Additionally, Made has shown a strong eye for the dish, posting a 32:32 K:BB. Last summer, the No. 1-ranked prospect on MLB.com spent most of his time in the lower level and only logged five games at Double-A over the final week of the season. Given his quick progression at Biloxi, Made is now in serious consideration to move up to Triple-A in the coming weeks, putting him on track to contend for a late-season debut.

Cleveland Guardians first base prospect Ralphy Velazquez has seen his stash value soar over the past few weeks and is now in serious play to push for a first-half MLB debut. Velazquez opened the 2026 regular season with Double-A Akron but needed only another 36 games at that level to prove he was ready to join the top ranks of the system. With Double-A, Velazquez posted a stellar .317/.414/.566 slash line with nine doubles, three triples, seven home runs, with a 31:22 K:BB. This strong play earned him an early ticket to Triple-A Columbus, where he has carried a .235/.316/.324 line over his first nine games. If Velazquez can continue to find his footing with Colbumus, he could be in the mix to replace the struggling Kyle Manzardo or Rhys Hoskins on the MLB roster.

Milwaukee Brewers infield prospect Jett Williams remains an elite stash option in Week 10 of the fantasy baseball season, given his clear path to at-bats on the major league roster. Williams was acquired by the Brewers in the winter in the deal that sent Freddy Peralta to the Mets. While Williams endured some growing pains over his first full look at the Triple-A level this season, the infielder has begun to show some steady progress. From May 6 through May 24 (17games), the former first-round pick has posted a .270/.397/.492 line with four doubles, two home runs, and three stolen bases. However, since this surge, he has tallied just one hit in his last five games. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his production, as another surge at the plate could push him to the big leagues and replace Joey Ortiz or David Hamilton in a starting role.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Trevor Megill locked up three saves last week, two of which came in the Brewers' most recent series in Houston over the weekend. On the season, Megill now owns a 4.29 ERA (2.87 xERA) and 1.05 WHIP with 27 strikeouts in 21 innings pitched. He has also converted on eight of his nine save opportunities, and has demonstrated solid control with a 7.1 percent walk rate. While there has been a lot of hype around Abner Uribe, who has pretty electric stuff, Uribe has not showcased as much consistency and control as Megill, leading Brewers manager Pat Murphy to side with the 32-year-old veteran more often than the young 25-year-old Uribe. While it's possible Uribe will still snipe a couple of saves from Megill throughout the season, Megill appears to be the guy to own out of the two, and although Megill may not finish as a top 10 closer because of that, he is still a reliever that should be viewed as one of the more efficient closers in the game when given the chances. Additionally, Uribe has not recorded a save since May 19 against the Cubs.

Cincinnati Reds reliever Tony Santillan started the ninth inning for the Reds on Sunday with a three-run lead over the Atlanta Braves and faltered, recording only two outs and allowing two hits, one walk, and one earned run. He threw 18 pitches, 10 of which were for strikes, and Sam Moll came in to record the final out and pick up the save. Since Emilio Pagan (hamstring) landed on the injured list in early May, the closer role for the Reds has been in flux, with Santillan receiving most of the opportunities, but he has now blown three saves on the season, and only converted on two of them. He owns a 5.56 ERA, 1.50 WHIP, and a 23.4 percent strikeout rate with an 11.7 percent walk rate. It has not been announced yet, nor have the Reds made it clear that Santillan has lost the role as the ninth-inning guy, but his production certainly suggests the Reds may look elsewhere, making him a strong drop candidate for fantasy managers heading into Week 11.

The Washington Nationals' carousel of closers continues, with right-hander Clayton Beeter recording the most recent two saves during the Nationals' three-game series against the Padres over the weekend. Beeter recorded the save on both Saturday and Sunday, working 2 1/3 innings, allowing one hit, and two walks with two strikeouts over the two outings. On the season, Beeter now owns a 2.30 ERA and 1.21 WHIP with 15 strikeouts in 15 2/3 innings pitched. He has converted on four of his six save opportunities on the season and is holding batters to a .135 batting average against. Considering Beeter got two opportunities in a row and is now tied for the team's lead in saves and save opportunities, he should be considered as a top closer fantasy option off the waiver wire in deeper formats where saves are difficult to come by. With the current state of closing pitching in MLB, Beeter's value is on the rise and is worth considering if you are struggling for saves.

Red Sox's SP Ranger Suarez recorded 10 strikeouts in 5 innings in a 9-4 win over Cleveland on Sunday, May. 31.

Rangers' SP Jack Leiter recorded 10 strikeouts in 5.2 innings with the win in a 6-3 win over the Royals on Sunday, May. 31.

Pittsburgh's SP Braxton Ashcraft recorded 11 strikeouts in 6 innings with the win in a 9-3 win over the Twins on Sunday, May. 31.

Los Angeles Dodgers' SP Yoshinobu Yamamoto recorded 10 strikeouts in 5.1 innings collecting the win in a 9-1 win over the Phillies on Sunday, May. 31.

Brewers first baseman Jake Bauers has cooled off slightly since his 12-game hitting streak came to an end on May 23, but his overall production remains highly encouraging. The 30-year-old is slashing .280/.351/.491 with nine home runs and continues to take a step forward offensively in his third season with Milwaukee. Bauers has been especially productive over his last 15 games, hitting .327 with a .564 slugging percentage while providing a steady mix of power and contact. His 22.6 percent strikeout rate is the lowest mark of his career and has helped fuel a more consistent offensive profile. With his previous career high sitting at 12 home runs, Bauers is well positioned to surpass that total. Fantasy managers should view him as a strong waiver wire target moving into June.

Royals right-hander Lucas Erceg endured another rough outing on Saturday against the Rangers, failing to record an out while allowing three runs on five hits, including a home run. The appearance marked his third consecutive outing in which he surrendered multiple runs, continuing a troubling stretch after a strong start to the season. Erceg now owns a 6.33 ERA, 1.92 WHIP, and 18 strikeouts across 21 1/3 innings. The 31-year-old has struggled to replicate the success he enjoyed in 2025, when he posted a 2.64 ERA in 61 appearances. His walk rate has jumped from 7.2 percent last season to 13.3 percent this year, contributing to the decline. While his 4.17 xERA offers some optimism, fantasy managers may want to look elsewhere until he regains consistency.

Braves right-hander Spencer Schwellenbach (elbow) appears to be making encouraging progress in his recovery from right elbow surgery performed in mid-February. While a return timeline remains unclear, the 26-year-old carries significant fantasy appeal as a stash candidate. Schwellenbach emerged as a key member of Atlanta's rotation over the last two seasons, compiling a 3.23 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, and elite command across 28 career starts. His 4.1 percent walk rate ranked in the 99th percentile, highlighting the combination of power stuff and control that fueled his success. Schwellenbach also showed improvement from 2024 to 2025 before the injury interrupted his development. Fantasy managers searching for impact pitching in the second half should continue monitoring his recovery closely as he works toward a return.

Chicago White Sox right-hander David Sandlin made an impressive first impression on Wednesday, allowing just one run across six innings while striking out four batters to earn the victory. The 11th-round pick out of Oklahoma earned his promotion after dominating in the minors, posting a 0.55 ERA across 16 1/3 innings in six starts this season. Sandlin showcased the deep arsenal that fueled his rise through the system, relying on a six-pitch mix led by a 98 mph fastball that he threw 44 percent of the time. Fantasy managers in deeper formats should keep a close eye on his next few outings as he looks to build momentum and establish himself in Chicago's rotation.

Minnesota Twins left-hander Connor Prielipp has hit a rough patch, allowing 11 earned runs across his last two starts while recording just 8 1/3 innings. The struggles come shortly after Prielipp logged the first quality start of his rookie season on May 16. His ERA has climbed to 5.13, and he owns a 1.35 WHIP through his first year in the majors. The former second-round pick and No. 5 prospect in the Twins organization has shown flashes of upside, but limiting hard contact has become a growing concern. Prielipp's 6.8 barrel-per-plate appearance rate and 10.8 percent barrel rate both sit above league average. He may continue to receive opportunities, but fantasy managers should explore other options until he shows signs of regaining consistency.

Athletics outfielder Henry Bolte has continued to impress during his rookie season, hitting .300 over his last seven games while building momentum at the major-league level. The Athletics' No. 5 prospect has raised his season batting average to .288 and has already stolen four bases in just 17 games since making his debut on May 13. Bolte's speed has translated immediately, and his 99th-percentile sprint speed gives him plenty of fantasy appeal. He has also shown an ability to make consistent contact while driving the ball with authority. Bolte owns a 50 percent hard-hit rate, a mark that sits well above league average. The sample size remains small, but his combination of speed, contact ability, and emerging production makes him a player worth monitoring closely in fantasy leagues.

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Ty Madden (forearm) will come off the 15-day Injured List ahead of Monday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Madden is back in action after missing over two weeks due to a right forearm contusion. It's unclear if Madden is going to start on Monday or pitch as the bulk reliever behind an opener. The right-hander has posted a 2.38 ERA, 0.79 WHIP, with 12 strikeouts across three appearances with the Tigers this season. Madden could be an interesting deep league option after posting a few decent outings to begin the season.
