Kansas City Royals first baseman/outfielder Jac Caglianone achieved a big milestone during Thursday's game against the Texas Rangers. Caglianone took left-hander Jacob Latz deep in the second inning for his first career big league homer. He wasn't done as he took Robert Garcia deep in the ninth inning for his second home run of the game. He would finish this game 2-for-4 with two homers and two RBI in the 4-1 win. It was an impressive performance from Caglianone who has struggled since being called up to the MLB earlier this month.

Kansas City Royals outfielder Jac Caglianone is not in the lineup for a matchup against the Texas Rangers on Wednesday. The lefty-swinging Caglianone is sitting with Rangers southpaw Patrick Corbin on the hill. Mark Canha will take his place in right field. Caglianone, whom the Royals promoted June 3, has gotten off to a slow start in the majors. The prized prospect is 10-for-51 with 12 strikeouts, one walk, and two RBI through his first 52 plate appearances as a Royal.

Kansas City Royals first baseman/outfielder Jac Caglianone achieved a big milestone during Thursday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. Caglianone slapped a ball down the first base line for his first career MLB hit. It was an RBI-double and his lone hit in the game as he went 1-for-4 in the loss. The top prospect is 1-for-9 over his first two games, but no one should be surprised if it takes time for him to get adjusted to the MLB level. Caglianone has all the skills to be a star at the big league level, so he should be rostered in basically all fantasy formats right now.

Kansas City Royals first base prospect Jac Caglianone is serving as the designated hitter and batting sixth in his major-league debut on Tuesday in St. Louis against the Cardinals and right-hander Andre Pallante. Caglianone arrives to much fanfare as MLB Pipeline's 10th overall prospect in all of baseball. The 22-year-old left-handed slugger was taken sixth overall last year out of Florida and was hitting a combined .322/.389/.593 with a .982 OPS, 15 long balls, 56 RBI, 41 runs scored and two stolen bases in 50 games with Double-A Northwest Arkansas and Triple-A Omaha before his call-up. Caglianone, who can also play the outfield, is expected to see most of his playing time in KC in right field initially, but he can also work in at DH and first base. There's elite power and athleticism here, making Caglianone a must-roster player in all fantasy leagues right away.

Kansas City Royals first baseman Jac Caglianone is getting the call to the major leagues, reports Jeff Passan of ESPN. The pressure was mounting quickly for the Royals to promote the top prospect ever since he was promoted to Triple-A, where he launched six home runs in his first 11 games at the new level. The slugger is slashing .323/.391/.600 throughout all stops of the minors this season, and is going to add some pop to Kansas City's lineup. He is ranked as the 10th-best prospect in baseball by MLB.com, and his 70-grade power is what got him selected sixth overall in the 2024 draft. While he is primarily a first baseman, he should also see time in both corner outfield spots and designated hitter, since Vinnie Pasquantino is already holding down first base. Caglianone is a must-add in all fantasy leagues.

Kansas City Royals first base/outfield prospect Jac Caglianone continued his incredible start at Triple-A on Friday evening. Facing Saint Paul, Caglianone went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI. Through his first 10 contests with Triple-A Omaha, Caglianone has posted an impressive .341/.391/.805 with a double, six home runs, 12 RBI, and an 8:4 K:BB. The former sixth overall pick from last year's MLB Draft opened the campaign with Double-A Northwest Arkansas. Across 38 contests at that level, Caglianone posted a strong .322/.394/.553 slash line with eight doubles and nine long balls. Fantasy managers should continue to view Caglianone as a must-stash player in all leagues. In addition to seeing time primarily at first base, Caglianone has begun to see time in the outfield, which could open more opportunities for him in the majors. When he gets the call, he will be viewed as a must-start player in all formats given his elite power upside.

Kansas City Royals first base prospect Jac Caglianone went 3-for-4 with a double on Wednesday for Triple-A Omaha, although with his recent obliteration of Triple-A pitching, Tuesday's 0-for-5 is potentially more noteworthy at this point. Through eight games for Omaha, the 2024 sixth-overall draft pick has gone 12-for-35 (.343) with five home runs, now with a .326/.387/.599 slash line with 14 home runs, a .428 wOBA, and a 160 wRC+ over 46 games between Double and Triple-A. Also noteworthy is that in four of the eight games at Triple-A, the Royals' top prospect played outfield instead of DH or first base, so it looks like Kansas City is trying to open up additional paths to the majors. It shouldn't be long now until he makes his major league debut, likely within the next month or so, and managers lookingfor a power boost should consider stashing the 6-foot-5 slugger ahead of time.

Caglianone showed off his elite raw power with a 113.4 MPH single in the third inning. The 22-year-old cruised through Double-A in just 38 games, slashing .322/.394/.540. Caglianone's plate discipline at Triple-A will be worth paying attention to, as he is known to chase outside the zone a fair amount. As long as his feel for the zone and contact ability improve over time, he has massive potential with his prodigious power. Caglianone should be expected to make his MLB debut sometime this summer and is worth stashing in standard leagues.

The Kansas City Royals are promoting first base/outfield prospect Jac Caglianone to Triple-A. The Royals drafted Caglianone with the sixth overall pick in last year's draft out of Florida. Last season, Caglianone began his professional career with High-A Quad Cities. Across 29 games, Caglianone posted a .241/.302/.388 slash line with nine doubles, one triple, two home runs, and two stolen bases. However, through the early part of the 2025 campaign, Caglianone has been one of the most productive hitters in the minor leagues. During his first 38 games at the Double-A level, Caglianone has posted an impressive .322/.394/.553 slash line with eight doubles and nine long balls. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his progression at Triple-A, as he should be in the mix for an early 2025 MLB debut.

Kansas City Royals first base prospect Jac Caglianone continued to demolish baseballs on Tuesday, homering twice in a 3-for-4 day at the plate for Double-A Northwest Arkansas, collecting four RBI and scoring a pair of runs in the process. It was the third consecutivegame that the former sixth-overall pick homered in, now with eight home runs on the season in 28 games (109 AB). With a .330 AVG and 1.012 OPS, a promotion to Triple-A in the near future feels prudent. At this rate, a major league debut later in the year is certainly withinreach, and redraft managers may want to consider stashing the 6-foot-5 slugger in the coming weeks.

Kansas City Royals first base prospect Jac Caglianone went 0-for-4 on Thursday for Double-A Northwest Arkansas, so it obviously wasn't his bat that was noteworthy - it was where he was playingin the field. The 22-year-old was patrolling right field for the Naturals, which is the first time he's played the outfield as a professional and even including his college career. Thursday's hitless game ended a four-game multi-hit stretch in which theRoyals' top prospect (MLB No. 20) had gone 10-for-16 (.625), and it appears the team is trying to make him more versatile defensively so as to open up more pathways to the majors. The 2024 sixth-overall draft pick has an ETA of 2026 per MLB.com, however, RotoBaller'slatestprospect stash report estimates a midseason call-up, so it is a situation to monitor closely as he could bring a heavy dose of power production with him for fantasy.

The 2024 first-round draft pick should continue to push for a promotion to Triple-A, and if he proves he can hit there, then don't be surprised to see him get a taste of the big leagues by season's end. The Royals' top prospect (MLB No. 20) has big-time power, graded at 70 per MLB.com's scouting report, and if he doesn't have a fantasy impact in 2025, then 2026 should be the year. Redraft managers may have to wait, but dynasty managers should have the 6-foot-5 slugger stashed away already.
