According to Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune, Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Brennen Davis will head to free agency as the club did not tender his contract. Davis was originally drafted by the Cubs in the second round of the 2018 MLB Draft. After being considered one of the club's top prospects for several seasons, Davis battled numerous injuries and could never find his footing. This past summer, Davis logged only 47 starts with Triple-A before suffering a back fracture. The 25-year-old has flashed upside at times as he posted a strong .252/.367/.474 line at the Double-A level. Fantasy managers in dynasty formats should continue to monitor where Davis signs the offseason, as he could be worth a speculative flier if he can find stable playing time in Triple-A.
Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Brennen Davis (back) suffered a back fracture and is expected to miss a significant amount of time on the farm. The Cubs have no specific timetable for his return. Davis was moved to the seven-day injured list on Tuesday with Triple-A Iowa. It's bad news for the team's No. 22 prospect, per MLB Pipeline. In addition to the serious injury, the 24-year-old former second-rounder in 2018 has hit just .229 (24-for-105) with 10 home runs, 26 RBI and 25 runs scored in 36 games this year for Iowa. On the bright side, Davis has shown off his power stroke while displaying a good eye at the plate. The 6-foot-3, 210-pound right-handed hitter was on track to potentially make his major-league debut in 2024, but his back fracture probably makes that unlikely now.
Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Brennen Davis has launched a home run in each of his past four games entering Friday evening. Through 20 games with Triple-A Iowa, the 24-year-old has posted a .241/.411/.574 line with six long balls and a 13:18 BB:K ratio. Davis was once considered one of the top prospects in the Chicago system but has suffered numerous injuries that have kept him off the field. However, now that he is healthy, he is once again showcasing his elite talent and quickly making headlines. Davis could make a case to join the major league roster later in the summer and is worth keeping an eye on in deeper dynasty formats and can become a stash-candidate if he continues this incredible power surge.
Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Brennen Davis went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer for Triple-A Iowa on Wednesday. His home run came off Alek Manoah in the top of the third inning. This was the outfielders first game in Iowa this season after returning from an arm injury that he suffered in spring training. Davis, 24, has slowly dropped from the Cubs top prospect over the past few seasons and injuries have been a big reason as he likely would have made his debut sometime in the past two seasons. Davis offers good power potential, but the Cubs have already promoted outfield prospects Alexander Canario and Pete Crow-Armstrong, so for now Davis will continue to swing the bat for Iowa. Outside of deeper dynasty leagues, Davis can be ignored for now.
Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Brennen Davis (concussion) was hit by a pitch in Tuesday's Cactus League game and is in the concussion protocol. He will be sidelined until he's able to clear the league's protocols for head injuries. The 24-year-old's concussion is considered mild, so hopefully he'll be able to get back to work sooner than later in camp. The former second-round pick by the Cubs in 2018 out of high school has an extensive injury history in the minors and has only played in 100-plus games once in five minor-league seasons. Davis slashed .187/.296/.279 with four home runs, 26 RBI and nine stolen bases in 62 games with Triple-A Iowa in 2023 and is ticketed for Iowa again to start the 2024 campaign.
