Top Fantasy Baseball Prospects: Kyle Manzardo

Kyle Manzardo (TB)

Manzardo is another uber-talented youngster that’s likely to see most of his at-bats in the minors this year. The 22-year-old product of Washington State was selected in the second round of the 2021 draft. He played 13 games at the rookie level that year. Then, 93 games between High-A and Double-A in 2022.

Over his 30 games at Double-A last year, Manzardo more than showed he belonged. Across 122 plate appearances, he put together an excellent .323/.402/.576 line with five homers and 10 doubles. Those results should land him in Triple-A very soon, possibly even from the outset of the 2023 campaign.

Manzardo may not quite have the same home-run potential as his peers at the position, but his grasp of the zone and ability to hammer the ball from gap to gap could make him a tougher out than all of them. The Rays tend to handle their prospects with the utmost care, but if the club is once again in contention, they may call on Manzardo sooner rather than later.
