2026 Fantasy Baseball Player Profile

Early made his MLB debut in 2025, impressing in a brief 4-game cup of coffee. The young southpaw displayed poise beyond his years, striking out 29 batters in just over 19 innings. 

2026 Outlook: Likely starting the year in Triple-A Worcester or as a swingman, Early is the first line of defense for rotation injuries. His high strikeout rate in the minors suggests significant upside if he gets an extended look. Early's rapid ascent through the minors in 2024, where he posted a 12.3 K/9 across High-A and Double-A, foreshadowed his seamless transition to big-league hitters. If he can maintain his control, he could force his way into the rotation permanently by mid-summer.
