Through the first 24 games of the Low-A regular season, the No. 90-ranked prospect in the sport on MLB.com held a solid .265/.315/.531 slash line. Given his current production, fantasy managers should expect Tait to be in contention to reach High-A in the coming weeks. While he remains several seasons away from his MLB debut, he could develop into one of the top catching prospects in the sport.

After a strong performance in the Florida Complex League, the Philadelphia Phillies will promote catcher Eduardo Tait to Single-A Clearwater. Tait, 17, has hit .321 with six homers and 49 RBI over 184 at-bats in Rookie Ball. The left-handed hitter out of Panama makes good contact at the plate at such a young age and should continue to improve his power as his body fills out. In his debut season, Tait threw out 44% of attempted baserunners, making it clear that he is likely to remain a backstop throughout his career. At such a young age, Tait doesn't need to be rostered in any format, but it wouldn't hurt dynasty managers to keep tabs on Tait.

Philadelphia Phillies catcher prospect Eduardo Tait had a big performance in Rookie Ball on Monday. The backstop went 2-for-5 with a pair of homers and five RBI. His big performance marked the first time that the 17-year-old has gone yard multiple times in a game. Per MLB Pipeline, Tait is the clubs No. 8 prospect, but offers big potential that could help him rise up the ranks. Tait swings the bat from the left side of the plate and has a good feel for making hard contact and barreling the ball. His body is still growing, but scouts believe that he'll have some good pop in his bat as his body matures. Tait is years away from a potential debut and a watch-list name for dynasty league managers at the moment.
