4 entriesGuaranteed everyday starts and .323/.383/.562 in Triple-A. The Reds didn't call up their second-ranked prospect to pinch-hit — he's the shortstop-eligible middle infield spot you've been waiting on.
Called up June 1 to replace the injured Elly De La Cruz. The 22-year-old switch-hitter posted a .945 Triple-A OPS with five-category upside and gets everyday at-bats in Cincinnati for at least 2-4 more weeks. Must-add in 12+ team leagues.
Arroyo hit .323/.383/.562 with 11 home runs and 9 stolen bases in 53 Triple-A games before being called up to cover Elly De La Cruz's 2-4 week hamstring absence. Cincinnati's No. 3 prospect brings a genuine multi-category profile — the kind of add that fills a hole and produces at the same time. Available at around 12% ownership in most leagues. Must-add in 14+ team leagues; strong add in 12-team.
Arroyo steps into the everyday SS role in Cincinnati while De La Cruz (hamstring, 2–4 weeks) is sidelined. He has legitimate speed at the top of a Reds lineup that plays fast, and multi-positional utility at short. Available in virtually every league at 8% ownership — add now in 14+ team leagues and hold through De La Cruz's absence.
Stash of the Week
2 entriesCalled up with Elly De La Cruz still working through his hamstring rehab, Arroyo steps into the Reds' everyday shortstop role with dual SS/2B eligibility and an upside profile that projects for 20 HR and 20 SB in a full season. He is set to hold the job for at least the next 3–4 weeks. Under 10% owned everywhere and playing meaningful time in a lineup with counting-stat support. This is exactly the kind of low-cost stash that pays dividends by early July.
Called up June 1 to replace Elly De La Cruz (hamstring, IL-10), Arroyo is one of the most complete prospects in baseball.
