Week 14 of the 2026 MLB season is shaping up to be a turning point for many fantasy baseball managers, as a handful of overlooked players are beginning to carve out meaningful roles.
Key Position Players to Watch
Samad Taylor of the San Diego Padres has posted a .379/.438/.448 slash line over his last 16 games while stealing six bases, suggesting a rare blend of contact, on‑base skill and speed that could translate into a steady stream of runs and stolen bases in fantasy lineups.
Blaze Jordan, who just made his debut with the St. Louis Cardinals, is batting .286/.298/.476 in his first 12 MLB games, already collecting three doubles and a home run that showcase his emerging power.
Denzer Guzman of the Los Angeles Angels has managed a .236/.311/.436 line with three homers and a stolen base in 14 appearances, a small sample that still hints at a player who can contribute both in the middle of the order and on the bases.
Jasson Dominguez of the New York Yankees has gone .250/.267/.477 over his last 11 games, hitting two home runs while adding four stolen bases, a combination that makes him a compelling upside play for managers seeking a five‑tool threat.
Emerging Pitching Options
Christian Scott of the New York Mets has posted a 2.50 ERA and a 1.31 WHIP across 36 innings this season, delivering the kind of consistency that often goes unnoticed in deeper fantasy leagues.
Clayton Beeter of the Washington Nationals has recorded four saves and two blown saves in his last 11 innings, a workload that reflects both opportunity and volatility.
Hogan Harris of the Athletics has posted a 2.70 ERA with five saves and a blown save over his previous 16 2/3 innings, a recent stretch that could earn him a larger role in the late‑inning mix.
