Jaxon Wiggins Fantasy Stats

Chicago Cubs right-handed pitching prospect Jaxon Wiggins was sent to minor-league camp on Sunday afternoon. The team's No. 2-ranked prospect was given the opportunity to begin spring training with the MLB roster but will return to the minor leagues to continue his development. The 24-year-old was unlikely to begin the 2026 season in the major leagues, but should remain in the mix to join the Cubs later in the summer. In 2025, the former 2023 draft pick spent most of his time at High-A and Double-A before finishing the season with a short 9 2/3 inning stint at Triple-A Iowa. Across 68 1/3 innings at High-A and Double-A, Wiggins posted a stellar 1.84 ERA, 0.94 WHIP, with an 83:30 K:BB. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression at Triple-A, as he could be the first name called as an injury replacement.

Chicago Cubs top pitching prospect Jaxon Wiggins is among the non-roster invitees set to attend MLB spring training. On MLB.com, Wiggins is considered the team's No. 2-ranked prospect and the sport's overall No. 67 prospect. Last summer, the right-hander was one of the most effective arms in the entire minor leagues and is now quickly approaching his MLB debut. He began the 2025 campaign with High-A but finished the second half with Triple-A Iowa. At High-A, Wiggins logged 26 1/3 innings to the tune of a 1.71 ERA and a 0.99 WHIP. He was then bumped up to Double-A, where he logged 42 innings with a stellar 1.92 ERA and a 0.93 WHIP. In his first taste of Triple-A, Wiggins took a step back, allowing five runs over 9 2/3 innings. Despite his struggles, Wiggins will likely begin the 2026 season with the Iowa Cubs, leaving the door open for an early first-half MLB debut.

Chicago Cubs pitching prospect Jaxon Wiggins looked quite impressive in the 2025 campaign and enters the 2026 campaign ranked as the team's No. 3 prospect on MLB Pipeline and the overall No. 67 in the sport. Wiggins opened the 2025 season with High-A but needed only 26 1/3 innings to prove he was ready to join the upper ranks. During this stint, the right-hander struck out 31 hitters and held a 1.71 ERA with a 0.99 WHIP. Through his first 42 innings at Double-A, Wiggins continued to find success, holding a 1.93 ERA, 0.93 WHIP, and a 52:17 K:BB. He was then given a short nine 2/3 inning stint with Triple-A late in the season, where he allowed five runs, walked six hitters, but added 14 punchouts. Given his quick progression through the system, Wiggins appears ticketed to compete for a midseason MLB debut. Managers should expect him to begin the 2026 season sitting at the top of the Triple-A Iowa rotation.

Chicago Cubs pitching prospect Jaxon Wiggins has been promoted to Triple-A Iowa following a successful 10-game stint at Double-A Knoxville. The Cubs' fourth-ranked prospect (MLB No. 81) began the season at High-A, pitching to a 1.71 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, and a 17.1 percent K-BB% over six appearances (five starts, 26 1/3 innings pitched), then followed that up with a 1.93 ERA, 0.93 WHIP, and a 21.3 percent K-BB% at Double-A in 42 innings pitched. The 6-foot-6 hurler is now in a position to make a run at a big league debut next year and has the potential to be a solid starter in the majors. With big strikeout stuff, he could be fantasy relevant as soon as next year, but he'll need to limit the walks to be successful.

Chicago Cubs pitching prospect Jaxon Wiggins fired four no-hit innings for Single-A Myrtle Beach on Thursday with a walk and six strikeouts. The Arkansas product has been sensational since being promoted to Single-A with a 2.14 ERA and 0.81 WHIP in 21 innings with 26 strikeouts and five walks. The Cubs' No. 19 prospect is working on a pitch limit this season and has yet to surpass four innings in a game, but he has shown an excellent strikeout rate and has stepped up his game lately after a bit of a slow start in rookie ball. The 22-year-old could advance quickly through Chicago's farm system.
