Chicago Cubs third base prospect Matt Shaw went 2-for-4 with a double, a triple, an RBI, and a stolen base during Friday's contest. The 23-year-old was able to crack the Opening Day roster but was optioned back to Triple-A after his slow start. During his first 18 games in the majors, Shaw held a modest .172/.294/.241 slash line with just one double and a long ball. However, since his return to Triple-A Iowa, Shaw has posted a strong .262/.392/.415 slash line with five doubles, one triple, one long ball, and three stolen bases. Last summer at Triple-A, the Maryland product posted a stellar .298/.395/.534 slash line with eight doubles and seven long balls. Given his recent stretch at Triple-A, fantasy managers should expect the top prospect to return to the big leagues in the coming weeks.

New York Yankees starting pitcher Will Warren lasted a season-high 7 1/3 innings in Friday's 10-2 victory over the Athletics, allowing just one run on four hits and a walk while striking out seven batters on the way to earning his second win of the season. The 25-year-old hadn't pitched more than five innings in any of his previous seven turns through the rotation, so this was also his first quality start of the year as well. Now the owner of a 4.75 ERA (3.34 xFIP), 1.36 WHIP, and a 15.8 percent K-BB%, the righty will take on Seattle on the road in his next start, a team that has been surprisingly good on offense this season (sixth-most runs per game), so unless you're in desperate need of strikeouts, Warren may be best left on the bench or waiver wire next week.

New York Mets right-handed pitching prospect Nolan McLean enjoyed an impressive outing in his Triple-A debut on Friday evening. Facing Triple-A Jacksonville, McLean struck out seven batters across seven shutout frames. He did not allow a walk. He allowed seven hits. The No. 5-ranked prospect in the system enjoyed a strong start to the season at Double-A and appears to have carried his momentum into the top level of the minor leagues. Through 26 1/3 innings with Double-A Binghamton, the right-hander posted a stellar 1.37 ERA with a 1.22 WHIP. During this stretch, he struck out 30 batters. Last summer, McLean spent most of his time with Double-A, where he posted a modest 4.19 ERA. Given his impressive start to the season, the Oklahoma State product should be in the mix to get the call to Queens in the coming months.

Seattle Mariners outfield prospect Jonny Farmelo went 3-for-4 with a double and two home runs during Friday's contest against High-A Tri-City. During this outing, Farmelo tallied two RBI and drew a walk. The 20-year-old missed the opening weeks of the campaign while recovering from the torn ACL he suffered last season. Through his first seven games of the High-A regular season, Farmelo has been very productive, holding a .281/.343/.781 slash line with two doubles, one triple, four home runs, and seven RBI. Last summer, the No. 93-ranked prospect in the sport made his professional debut with Low-A Modesto and posted a .264/.398/.421 line with 10 doubles, three triples, and four long balls. Fantasy managers should expect Farmelo to spend most of the season at High-A.

Milwaukee Brewers right-handed prospect Jacob Misiorowski struck out a season-best 11 batters during his outing against Triple-A Norfolk on Friday evening. In this outing, Misiorowski allowed just two hits and one free pass. He did not allow a run. Over his last 23 2/3 innings of work (four starts), Misiorowski has posted a near-perfect 0.38 ERA with a 0.72 WHIP. During this stretch, Misiorowski has served up just six walks and struck out 33 batters. During his first 18 2/3 innings of work, Misiorowski held a solid 2.89 ERA with a 1.18 WHIP. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression at Triple-A as the Crowder College product appears to be approaching his MLB debut. Given his improved command and increasing strikeout potential, he is a strong stash option going forward.
