Mick Abel stands out as a prime fantasy baseball target for Week 10 (2025), particularly after his impressive MLB debut with the Philadelphia Phillies. Initially called up on May 18, Abel showcased his talent with six shutout innings against the Pittsburgh Pirates, striking out nine batters. His performance, however, was followed by a demotion as the Phillies opted to add veteran Taijuan Walker to the rotation. Walker has struggled recently, allowing 10 runs in his last 12 innings, leading to speculation about Abel's potential return to the majors.

Following Walker's shift back to the bullpen, the Phillies have reinstated Abel to the rotation, giving him another shot against the Toronto Blue Jays. With a solid 2.21 ERA and a strong K:BB ratio in Triple-A, Abel is a valuable stash in 12-team leagues. His ability to hold a rotation spot until fellow prospect Andrew Painter arrives or Aaron Nola returns from injury makes him a strategic addition for fantasy managers.
