Wednesday grants us a must-watch game, featuring the big-league debut of Toronto Blue Jays prospect Alek Manoah, who will make said start at New York's Yankee Stadium (assuming the weather cooperates). The 23-year-old right-hander is already one of the most-added players in ESPN leagues and is sure to be day's hottest pickup in fantasy. That's rightfully so, and if he's still out there in your league, here's another up-close look at Manoah's potential, from my May 17 column.
If getting to the next big prospect is your thing -- and it makes a heck of a lot of sense to do so, at least in any league with sizable benches or larger format than ESPN's 10-team standard -- today's recommended pickups are led by another to stash right now.
