Eli Willits

At just 18 years old, Willits remains several years away from fantasy relevance at the MLB level, operating as a prospect in the minor leagues with the Wilmington Blue Rocks. While his long-term ceiling as a potential shortstop could eventually offer speed and run-scoring upside, he currently lacks the MLB experience or track record necessary for fantasy consideration in 2026. Fantasy managers should monitor his development trajectory across minor league levels, particularly his ability to hit for average and accumulate stolen bases, as these will be key indicators of future fantasy value. For now, Willits is a prospect to stash in keeper leagues with deep minor league systems, not a realistic contributor to traditional fantasy rosters this season.
