Luke Adams Fantasy Stats

Milwaukee Brewers third base prospect Luke Adams is producing in the minor leagues in the midst of an injury-plagued season. Adams is hitting .252 with 13 homers and 32 RBI in 131 at-bats this season, to go with five stolen bases between two levels, including Triple-A Nashville. The Brewers' No. 12 overall prospect, Adams suffered a wrist injury early this season but returned to post strong numbers in Nashville and offer a glimpse of his upside at third base. David Hamilton mans the hot corner at the big league level for the Brewers at the moment, but Adams, a right-handed bat, is providing some evidence that he could be ready for a look at the major leagues and could be a platoon partner for the left-handed-hitting Hamilton. Savvy fantasy managers in deep leagues may want to look into Adams and give him a chance at a roster spot ahead of the All-Star break.

Milwaukee Brewers corner infield prospect Luke Adams has been a force at Triple-A Nashville during his limited action so far this season. The Brewers' 12th-ranked prospect missed about a month and a half earlier this year, but in the 32 games he's played, he's collected 26 hits, 15 of which have gone for extra bases, including 10 home runs, giving him a .574 slugging percentage. The 6-foot-4 slugger also owns a solid 11.4 percent walk rate as well and has managed to get hit by a pitch 10 times already, providing the foundation for a .382 on-base percentage. In all, it's resulted in a .956 OPS, which would put him near the top of the leaderboard had he played in enough games to qualify. The 22-year-old is a candidate for a call-up in the second half, and fantasy managers, especially those in very deep or OBP leagues, should put the right-handed hitter on their stash radar.

The Milwaukee Brewers have placed third base prospect Luke Adams (shoulder) on the 7-day injured list with a left shoulder contusion. The 21-year-old suffered this injury during Friday's contest against Double-A Knoxville. Adams opened the campaign by making his Double-A debut. Through his first 59 games with Double-A Biloxi, Adams has posted a .241/.442/.477 slash line with 13 doubles, 11 home runs, and three stolen bases. During this stretch, the No. 8-ranked prospect in the system has held a 54:41 K:BB and has tallied an impressive 38 RBI. Last summer, Adams spent all of his time with High-A, where he held a .227/.443/.397 slash line. Fantasy managers should expect the 21-year-old to spend most of the second half with Double-A.
