Need some fantasy/prospect advice...

by Yanks27Sox7 on Jan 22, 2026 2:52 AM EST

W/out getting into all the specifics...I've got 2 different questions for 2 very different leagues. Having a tough time making either decision, so looking for some help. I've got my leans for each, mainly with upside in mind...but would appreciate some other opinions. (I get too "attached" to some of these prospects...so even though neither decision is all that important for either of my teams, I make it tougher than it prolly needs to be lol.)

Which 1 of the 4 would you keep over the others?

Christian Colon, Cesar Puello, Kyle Parker, or Slade Heathcott

And which 1 of the 3 would you keep?

Alex Meyer, Matt Purke, or Jenrry Mejia

Thanks for your help/advice.

I like Parker and Purke (if healthy)

Parker isnt yet a complete player, but he’s got the talent and athleticism. Purke, was once debated for the #1 pick, I’d take that chance. Add in the talent the Nats have cultivated in recent years, I’d say chances are OK he is what you hope he is (No Denny Green “they were what we thought they were” referance implied!)

That’s who I would keep. If you sincerely doubt Purke will ever get healthy again, I can see the argument for Mejia. I am just afraid Mejia is a reliever in the long run - though he may make a good shut-down closer.
