Wetherholt

Wetherholt has reeled off three consecutive multi-hit performances following an ice-cold start at the Double-A level. The seventh-overall pick in last year’s MLB Draft boasts 20-homer upside and above-average speed which makes him one of the top 20 prospects in the dynasty landscape already.

Wetherholt made a strong impression this spring after being selected seventh overall in last year’s MLB Draft following a standout collegiate career at the University of West Virginia. The 22-year-old shortstop is one of the best pure hitters from the entire draft class and possesses 20-plus homer pop with above-average speed. He figures to move quickly through the Cardinals’ system and could be threatening to reach the majors by the end of the year. From a dynasty standpoint, he profiles as a top-25 prospect.
