Phillies' Starlyn Caba: Wrapping up strong campaign

Starlyn Caba is hitting .180 with a .308 on-base percentage, zero home runs, 13 steals and as many walks (15) as strikeouts in 24 games for Single-A Clearwater.Given that Caba logged a .427 OBP, 15.1 percent strikeout rate and 37 steals in 52 Florida Complex League games while showcasing plus defense at shortstop prior to his promotion to Single-A, this season has still been a positive one for the the 18-year-old switch hitter. Caba's glove will likely get him to the big leagues, where his plus speed could make him relevant in fantasy if he gets enough playing time. It's still to be determined how much of an impact the 5-foot-9 shortstop will make at the plate.
