Joshua Báez Fantasy Stats

St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez continues to show off his power with another multi-home run game in the bag already in July. Baez gained notoriety when he hit four home runs in a June game for Triple-A Memphis and has yet to slow down. His overall power numbers at Memphis are elite and some of the best power numbers across all levels of the minor leagues. In all, he is hitting .263 with 28 homers and 69 RBI and has added 14 stolen bases. The numbers seem to scream promotion, but the Cardinals are being extremely patient with the 23-year-old. With the likes of Jordan Walker, Nathan Church, and Lars Nootbaar manning the outfield positions, St. Louis is in good hands at the major league level. They can afford to be patient, but there is not much more to see from Baez before believing he is ready for the next level. Fantasy managers in mid-to-deep leagues would be wise to use a roster spot on Baez now and could potentially reap the rewards later.

St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez continued to showcase his high-end power at Triple-A with another multi-home run effort on Thursday. Facing Charlotte, the team's top outfield prospect went deep twice and tallied three total hits with an additional stolen base. Since June 9 (his last 19 games of action), the No. 65-ranked prospect in the sport per MLB.com has gone deep an impressive 11 times while carrying a .240/.286/.707 slash line. On the season, Baez has posted a .267/.333/.617 line with 28 home runs and 14 stolen bases. While the outfielder does have some high swing-and-miss tendencies in his profile, his power and speed combination make him a must-stash prospect. Given his current power binge, Baez should be in strong contention to join the Cardinals shortly after the All-Star break.

St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez has been among the top power hitters in the minor leagues over the month of June and has put himself on the doorstep of a promotion. Since June 1, the top outfield prospect in the St. Louis pipeline has launched 10 home runs over just 19 contests while holding a .329/.365/.803 line while chipping in an additional two stolen bases. On the season, the No. 65-ranked prospect in baseball according to MLB.com has posted a .273/.343/.626 line with a strong 949 OPS. Even though the Cardinals recently saw Lars Nootbaar return from his lengthy stint on the IL and Nathan Church return to center field, Baez's elite production has put him in must-stash territory. If he maintains this pace, he should debut shortly after the All-Star break and hold high-end five-category potential as soon as he receives the big leagues.

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Joshua Baez is getting very close to arriving in the majors, according to MLB Network's Jim Bowden, and he could be a huge source of power from the waiver wire in all formats. The 22-year-old is hitting .274 in his 67 games in Triple-A with 25 home runs, 64 RBI, and a .407 wOBA. Baez has also added 12 stolen bases and shown off five-tool ability, which gives him huge breakout potential. MLB Pipeline ranked Baez as the No. 64 prospect in baseball and the No. 3 prospect in the Cardinals' farm system. The Cardinals have an exciting young lineup coming together, and Baez could be the next big piece to arrive. Since his call-up seems imminent, you can stash the slugger now in deep formats with plenty of bench room and be ready to grab him as soon as he's called up in standard-sized mixed leagues.

St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez has enjoyed an incredible stretch at the plate at Triple-A and is on the verge of earning the call to the big leagues. Through 64 total games with the Memphis Redbirds, the outfielder has held a dominant .275/.343/.628 line with 24 home runs and 12 stolen bases. Over his last 14 contests (since June 2), the outfielder has been even more impressive at the dish, launching eight of these home runs with a .368/.381/.877 line. On June 16, Baez made headlines across the minor leagues, slugging four long balls in a single game. However, despite this level of play, the Cardinals have yet to turn to him. Even though Lars Nootbaar and Nathan Church are both back in action, Baez's current production should pave the way for him to join the MLB roster before the end of the month, especially if they remain in the Wild Card race. He remains an elite prospect to stash in all standard leagues ahead of Week 13.

St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez continues to rake at Triple-A Memphis while pushing towards a debut in the big leagues in 2027. In a 12-5 win over the Triple-A Nashville Sounds on Tuesday, Baez went 4-for-5 at the plate with four home runs and seven RBI to boost his season batting average to .282 and his OPS to .976. The 22-year-old former second-round pick in 2021 is now hitting .282/.345/.631 with 23 home runs, 58 RBI, 12 stolen bases, and 52 runs scored in 62 games and 281 plate appearances with Memphis in 2026. It's hard to ignore what the 6-foot-3, 220-pound outfielder has done in the minors this year after hitting 20 bombs a year ago. Baez has been especially hot lately, clearing the fences 12 times in his last 18 games played. Per MLB Pipeline, he's St. Louis' No. 3 prospect, behind left-hander Liam Doyle and catcher Rainiel Rodriguez. Baez's raw power and 30-homer potential at the big-league level make him an obvious stash candidate now, perhaps even in mixed redraft formats.

St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez remains one of the top bats to stash in fantasy for his multi-category potential whenever he makes it to the major leagues. The Cardinals' third-ranked prospect is hitting .370 (17-for-46) in June, with five doubles, three home runs, and a stolen base through 11 games this month. For the season, the former second-round draft pick is slashing .271/.337/.579, and his 19 home runs are tied for the Triple-A lead, while he's added 12 steals as well. The 6-foot-3 slugger is coming off a 2025 season in which he blasted 20 home runs and stole 54 bases in 117 games between High-A and Double-A. One area that needs improvement is his strikeout rate, which currently stands at 31.5 percent, and one would figure that would not improve at the major league level. Still, while the strikeouts may limit his batting average whenever he gets the call, the 22-year-old could still be a four-category contributor, and given the likelihood of a call-up within the next month or so, he is one of the few "must-stash" bats in most fantasy leagues.

St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez has been flashing his elite raw power over the past month at Triple-A and is now firmly on the verge of making his MLB debut. Even with Lars Nootbaar and Nathan Church returning from their injured list, Baez has shown more than enough upside at the Triple-A level to join the MLB roster and take on a starting role. Over his last 22 games with the Memphis Redbirds, the slugging outfielder has launched an impressive 10 long balls with seven doubles, two triples, and four stolen bases while carrying a .326/.390/.787 line. The lone knock on his profile has been the hefty 30.0% K% he has maintained over this power surge. While his high swing and miss tendencies hurt his profile in points leagues, he is one of the few prospects in the minors who possesses immense upside across the five standard categories, making him a top stash target ahead of his debut.

St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez continued his power surge on Tuesday, slugging his 18th home run of the season. Over his last 12 games, the Cards' third-ranked prospect is 23-for-58 (.397) with five doubles, two triples, and seven home runs. The former second-round draft pick hasn't shown off his wheels during this hot stretch, but perhaps that is because many of his hits are going for extra bases, and he isn't drawing many walks (three). For the season, the 6-foot-3 slugger is slashing .274/.346/.591, and on top of his 18 home runs, he has 11 steals. With the power comes a high strikeout rate of 32.1 percent, but it was better during the recent 12-game span, down to 25.9 percent. The power and ability to steal bases (he had 54 steals in 2025) are enticing for fantasy, and it is what should earn him a debut by the All-Star break. With multi-category upside, the 22-year-old remains a must-stash in most leagues.

St. Louis Cardinals outfield prospect Joshua Baez remains on the verge of his MLB debut and holds a high-end stash upside among hitting prospects. Through his first 56 games at the Triple-A level, the outfielder has flashed both power and speed upside, hitting 17 home runs and stealing 11 bases. Overall, he carries a .276/.349/.587 line with a stellar .936 OPS. He has looked even more comfortable as of late, carrying a dominant 1.160 OPS with 10 of his home runs over his last 22 games. Last summer, Baez split his time at High-A and Double-A and held a .287/.384/.500 line with 20 home runs and 54 stolen bases. Even with Lars Nootbaar back in action, Baez has a path to carving out a role in the St. Louis offense in the near future, given how well he has performed at the top club in the minor leagues. His five-category upside makes him a priority target in all standard leagues.
