Since August 1, the former second-round selection has gone 8-for-38 with a .211/.225/.421 line, two home runs, four RBI, and a poor 1:13 BB:K ratio. Through July, the number-three ranked prospect in the Cubs pipeline held a solid .250/.291./.423 line. Overall, through his first look at Triple-A pitching, the 22-year-old has posted a solid .270/.363/.445 line with 12 round-trippers and 54 RBI. The number 33 ranked prospect in baseball should push for a late-season major league debut if he can break out of this minor slump.

The 22-year-old has 12 homers and 53 RBI with a .278 batting average this season. The Cubs' No. 3 prospect could be looking at a potential promotion by the end of the season if he continues to show off his power potential. His 65-grade power would make him worth an immediate look on the waiver wire if he does get called up to Chicago this season. The Canadian has impressed this season and is knocking on the door of his major league debut.
Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Owen Caissie connected on his 10th homer of the season for Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday. The 22-year-old Canadian slugger is hitting .281 with 50 RBI at Iowa this season in 84 games. The Cubs' No. 3 prospect can mash from the left side of the plate and has been given a 65-grade power ranking. Caissie has four extra-base hits in his last six games. His power potential makes him an intriguing prospect and a big part of the Cubs' future outfield plans. His debut will likely come next year, but he is certainly a prospect name that fantasy managers should be familiar with.
Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Owen Caissie went 1-for-4 with a run scored on Sunday for Triple-A Iowa. It was his second game with the club after missing two weeks with back tightness. Per MLB Pipeline, the outfielder is the Cubs No. 3 prospect. The Canadian, who was acquired from the San Diego Padres as part of the Yu Darvish deal prior to the 2021 season has consistently risen in the Cubs system since debuting in 2021. This season for Iowa, Caissie has hit .274 with eight home runs, 46 RBI and eight stolen bases in 78 games. The outfielder has the potential to have plenty of power and broke out for 22 homers in 2023 for Double-A Tennessee. With the trade deadline approaching, it will be interesting to see what the Cubs do, as outfielder Cody Bellinger could potentially be on the move with the Cubs stumbling overall this season. If the Cubs decide to go into sell mode, there is a chance that Caissie could see some time in Chicago. Regardless, he is on track to earn a roster spot as soon next season and should be on the radar of dynasty managers, while being an intriguing option this season in redraft leagues, if his name is called upon.

The lefty-swinging outfielder is hitting .279 with eight homers and 46 RBI to go with six stolen bases at Iowa this season.

MLB.com projects Caissie to make his major league debut in 2025, but he could push for a late-season promotion this season due to how well he has performed. Once promoted, he would enter must-stash territory due to his ability to be a five-category contributor.
Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Owen Caissie extended his hitting streak to four games with a base hit on Friday evening. In May, Caissie has a .258/.452/.452 line with a strong 10:8 BB:K ratio. Through his first 36 games at Triple-A this season, the 21-year-old has an impressive .281/.428/.438 line with three long balls and four swiped bags. The former second-round selection is making his case to see time in the major leagues later this summer. However, he is in a bit of a logjam with Cody Bellinger and Seiya Suzuki returning from injuries, Ian Happ having an everyday role in left field, and the recent promotion of top prospect Pete Crow-Armstrong. Nonetheless, the third-ranked prospect in the Cubs system should be rostered in all dynasty leagues and is becoming a worthy stash candidate in deeper redraft formats.
Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Owen Caissie continues to succeed at Triple-A and is making a case for a much earlier-than-anticipated major league promotion. Across 26 games with Triple-A Iowa, the 21-year-old has posted a .289/.418/.433 stat line with one home run and three stolen bases. Caissie has also tallied ten extra-base hits. Over the past seven days, the number three prospect in the Chicago system has logged a .389/.542/.444 line with an impressive 6:9 BB:K ratio. Caissie may join the major league roster later this summer and be given the opportunity quite soon as Cubs outfielders Cody Bellinger (ribs) and Seiya Suzuki (oblique) have sustained serious injuries and may miss an extended period. Caissie should be rostered in all dynasty and keeper formats and should be monitored in deeper redraft leagues.
