Fantasy Baseball Prospects: Colson Montgomery, James Wood, Jordan Lawlar, Pete Crow-Armstrong

Welcome back to my weekly prospect report at FantasyPros! The goal of this column is to give you the most fantasy-relevant prospect information throughout the last week, all in one place.

The format of this weekly prospect report will be by level and we will go through players in order of their placing on my latest Top 150 Prospect Rankings. I won’t be hitting every prospect every week, but I will focus on the most relevant throughout the week and follow up on other notable players post my top 150. This article will not focus on any AAAA-type players or veterans in the Minors who have outlived their prospect status. Below we dive into a few notable names.

NOTE: Rookie status is determined by 130 ABs, or 50 IPs at the Major League level | All stats are as of Sunday, April 14.

Fantasy Baseball Prospect Report

      • Season: .415/.547/.707 | 22.6 BB% / 17 K%| 8 XBH, 2 HR, 5 SB
      • This Week: 12/27 | 6 XBH, 2 HR, 5 SB
      • Notes: James Wood is showing great discipline and has been hitting the ball hard (mostly on the ground) so far this young season. Wood should be in the Majors, but the Nationals likely don’t want him to finish near the top of the ROY voting because they would lose a year of eligibility. Otherwise, he would have just broken camp.
      • Season: N/A
      • This Week: N/A
      • Notes: Jordan Lawlar is on the IL for at least two months after undergoing thumb surgery.
      • Season: .208/.236/.377 | 3.6 BB% / 30.9 K%| 5 XBH, 1 HR, 5 SB
      • This Week: 2/21 | 0 XBH, 0 HR, 1 SB
      • Notes: Pete Crow-Armstrong (PCA) must show better plate discipline before getting a call-up. Still, he’s been electric in making things happen and should get the call within the next couple of months. He was great last week and terrible this week. This is just the type of player PCA will be: volatile.
      • Season: .278/.350/.444 | 6.6 BB% / 36.1 K%| 5 XBH, 2 HR, 1 SB
      • This Week: 8/25 | 4 XBH, 2 HR, 1 SB
      • Notes: Colson Montgomery had a nice week, which bumped his numbers significantly. Still, he needs to get his plate skills under control to maximize his potential.
