Jonatan Clase

22-Year-Old OutfielderOF
Toronto Blue Jays
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Clase was middling at the plate as a 21-year-old at Double-A, logging a 67.3 percent contact rate and .222 batting average to go along with 13 home runs and 62 steals in 108 games. His .331 on-base percentage and the resulting havoc he caused on the bases allowed the switch hitter to still impact the game regularly, despite being a below league average hitter (94 wRC+), and his speed will be the key to him being an impactful fantasy outfielder. Clase has 70-grade speed and likes to run, so that will always define his fantasy relevance. He came into the year with 33 home runs in 236 games above rookie ball, and it will be tough for him to hit more than 15 in a MLB season while playing half his games in Seattle. Clase has two minor-league option years remaining and was summoned from Triple-A early in 2024 after showing improved plate skills. If he is playing regularly, his speed makes him worthy of a flyer in roto leagues. Read Past Outlooks

The Blue Jays recalled Clase from Triple-A Buffalo on Thursday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Clase was acquired from the Mariners in late July and will be making his Blue Jays debut when he gets into a game. The 22-year-old outfielder should get some looks down the stretch in a Blue Jays outfield that recently lost Daulton Varsho (shoulder) to the injured list.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
Clase had an impressive pro debut as a 17-year-old in the Dominican Summer League in 2019, hitting .300/.434/.444 (147 wRC+) with two home runs and 31 steals (on 41 attempts) in 63 games. He was dealing with an undisclosed injury during most of the fall instructional league in 2020, but the Mariners say he was able to hit and that his hit tool and power appear to be real. That power is a new and important development. Clase, who was listed at 5-foot-8, 150 pounds when he signed in 2018, was listed at 6-foot, 200 pounds at instructs. He is the fastest player in Seattle's farm system (at least a plus runner), and now it seems that Clase is has a chance to be a five-category fantasy contributor. Since we're still awaiting his official stateside debut, it's hard to say exactly where his offensive skills are now, but he has the physical tools to jump 100 spots on the prospect rankings this season.

Up on taxi squad
OFSeattle Mariners
May 19, 2024
Clase is with the Mariners as a member of the taxi squad for Sunday's game against the Orioles, reports Daniel Kramer of MLB.com.
ANALYSIS
The 21-year-old could be added to the active roster in the coming days, but for now he'll serve as emergency outfield depth. Clase posted a .509 OPS in nine games while up with the Mariners in April, though he has an .878 OPS through 28 contests with Triple-A Tacoma this year.
