J.J. Wetherholt Swinging a Hot Bat

St. Louis Cardinals infield prospect J.J. Wetherholt has posted seven multi-hit games over his last eight contests. During this stretch, the top prospect in the St. Louis system has held a .517/.622/.759 slash line with a double, one triple, a home run, two stolen bases, and a 6:7 K:BB. The Cardinals selected the infielder with the seventh pick in last year's MLB Draft out of West Virginia. Wetherholt made his professional debut after the draft with Low-A Palm Beach and held a .295/.405/.400 line across 29 contests. He began the 2025 campaign with Double-A and has held an overall .319/.439/.475 line with 11 doubles, four home runs, nine stolen bases, and an impressive 27:32 K:BB. Given his steady progression, Wetherholt will likely earn a taste of Triple-A in the second half.

J.J. Wetherholt Goes Deep, Posts Third Straight Multi-Hit Game

St. Louis Cardinals infield prospect J.J. Wetherholt went 2-for-4 with a home run during their contest on Thursday against Double-A Frisco. Wetherholt has now tallied at least two hits in each of his past three contests. During this stretch, he has tallied two extra-base hits and only struck out twice. Over his last 15 games, Wetherholt has held a .315/.456/.574 slash line with three doubles, one triple, three home runs, and four stolen bases. The 22-year-old was selected with the seventh overall pick in last year's MLB Draft. After the draft, he began his professional career with Low-A but was able to make the jump to Double-A this season. If he continues to swing a hot bat, fantasy managers should expect the top prospect in St. Louis to get the call to Triple-A later this summer.

J.J. Wetherholt Logs Back-to-Back Multi-Hit Games to Start Week

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop prospect J.J. Wetherholt went 2-for-4 on Wednesday for Double-A Springfield. This follows a three-hit game on Tuesday, which included a triple and two runs scored. The left-handed slugger came into the week hitting .208 (5-for-24) over his previous eight contests, but he still registered a .457 OBP thanks to 11 walks that he tallied during that stretch. The Cardinals' top-ranked prospect is performing well in his first run through Double-A, slashing .293/.406/.436 with three home runs, seven steals, and a 25:22 BB:K. The 2024 seventh-overall draft pick should be in the mix for a promotion to Triple-A in the coming weeks and could still make a late-season cameo in the majors. He offers solid all-around hit, power, and run tools, and could be an impact fantasy player as early as next season, so dynasty and redraft managers alike should be keeping an eye on him.

J.J. Wetherholt Continues to Swing a Hot Bat at Double-A

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop prospect J.J. Wetherholt has continued to swing a hot bat at Double-A. Over his last 10 contests, Wetherholt has posted a stellar .317/.391/.561 slash line. During this stretch, Wetherholt has tallied four doubles and two home runs. He swiped three bags and held an impressive 7:5 K:BB. Through his first 30 games at the Double-A level, last season's seventh overall pick has held his own, posting a .291/.385/.445 line. He has gone deep three times, tallied eight doubles, swiped six bags, and held a 16:16 K:BB. After last year's MLB Draft, the West Virginia product made his professional debut with Low-A, where he posted a .295/.405/.400 line with two long balls in 29 games. If the 22-year-old continues to hold his own at Double-A, he could be in the mix to earn a Triple-A promotion in the second half of the season.

J.J. Wetherholt Homers in Second Straight Game on Sunday

St. Louis Cardinals infield prospect J.J. Wetherholt went 1-for-4 on Sunday at Double-A Springfield, smacking a home run in his second straight game and third of the year. He also swiped his fourth bag of the season. Wetherholt had been raking through mid-April before missing a week and a half with an illness, and was cold upon his return, going 3-for-25 (.120) over eight games. However, the 22-year-old's bat has begun to heat up again, going 10-for-29 (.345) over the last seven contests. Despite the aforementioned cold spell, the Cardinals' top-ranked prospect is slashing .296/.383/.449 with a .380 wOBA and 128 wRC+ through 27 games. He also owns an impressive 12:13 BB:K. With a little more seasoning at Double-A, the 2024 first-round draft pick should see some time at Triple-A later this year and could be looking at a major league debut in 2026, so dynasty managers will want to pay close attention to how he fares at the next level.

J.J. Wetherholt Absent From Lineup All Week

St. Louis Cardinals infield prospect J.J. Wetherholt was pulled from last Friday's game on April 18 due to flu-like symptoms, but has yet to make it back to the lineup. The Cardinals' top prospect had been raking at Double-A Springfield, going 16-for-30 (.533) over the seven games prior to last Friday's contest, including four doubles, a home run, eight RBI, and eight runs scored over that stretch. It's surprising to see him remain out with no injury being reported, so it will be interesting to see if he finally returns to action this weekend. MLB's 21st-ranked prospect should push for a promotion to Triple-A this year, and a late-season call-up to the majors isn't out of the question, so dynasty and redraft managers should keep tabs on his progress as he has the potential to be an impact player upon his arrival.

J.J. Wetherholt Launches First Double-A Long Ball

St. Louis Cardinals infield prospect J.J. Wetherholt went 3-for-4 with a double and a home run during their contest against Double-A Arkansas. After going 0-for-14 during his first four games at the Double-A level, Wetherholt has flipped the script, tallying at least one hit in each of his previous six games. During this recent surge, he has tallied multiple hits in all but one game. On Wednesday, Wetherholt launched his first home run at this level and tallied four RBI in a single contest for the first time. The Cardinals drafted Wetherholt with the seventh pick in last year's MLB Draft out of West Virginia. After being drafted, the 22-year-old received a brief taste of Low-A ball and held a .295/.405/.400 slash line across 29 games. He is a name to monitor as he could reach Triple-A later this season.

J.J. Wetherholt Tallies Three Hits On Wednesday

St. Louis Cardinals infield prospect J.J. Wetherholt enjoyed a breakout game at Double-A on Wednesday evening. In this contest, Wetherholt went 3-for-5 with three RBI. He tallied one double. This was a much-needed breakout game for Wetherholt as he went 0-for-17 with a 1:4 BB:K through his first four games of the regular season. The Cardinals drafted Wetherholt with the seventh overall pick in last year's MLB Draft out of West Virginia. The 22-year-old received a brief look at Low-A following the draft. Across 29 games, he looked quite comfortable, posting a .295/.405/.400 slash line with a 16:15 BB:K. He swiped two bags and hit five doubles and two round-trippers. Fantasy managers should expect Wetherholt to spend most of the campaign with Double-A and push for a 2026 MLB debut.

J.J. Wetherholt Assigned To Double-A Springfield

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop prospect J.J. Wetherholt has been assigned to Double-A Springfield to begin the 2025 season. The 22-year-old earned a non-roster invite to spring camp and while there were some things he did well, it wasn't enough to make the big league club. The left-handed hitter went just 2-for-20 (.100) but did hit one home run, stole three bases, and walked more than he struck out (6:5 BB:K). The 2024 first-round draft pick spent all 29 games he played last season at Single-A, slashing .295/.405/.400 with a 16:15 BB:K. With a strong season, he'll no doubt ascend to Triple-A and a 2025 MLB debut is certainly a possibility. Possessing a keen eye at the plate and a solid power-speed profile, he could make an impact as soon as he gets the call so fantasy managers will want to keep tabs on his progression.

J.J. Wetherholt Reassigned To Minor-League Camp

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop prospect J.J. Wetherholt was reassigned to minor-league camp on Wednesday. The Cardinals' 2024 first-round draft pick earned a roster invite this spring but will need more seasoning before returning to the big leagues. The left-handed hitter played just 29 games at Single-A last season but showed well with a .295/.405/.400 slash line over 126 plate appearances, while walking more than he struck out (16:15 BB:K). The 22-year-old was 2-for-20 in Grapefruit League play, which included a home run, plus he added three stolen bases. The keen eye was on full display as well, posting a 6:5 BB:K. If he plays well this summer, then perhaps there's an outside shot we'll see him in St. Louis by season's end, however, a 2026 debut is more likely.
