5/8/26 10:01 AM - Brice Matthews: Up-And-Coming Dynasty Player. Whether you are an experienced dynasty baseball player or new to the whole thing, it is pretty easy to spot the future stars, such as a Kevin McGonigle or Konnor Griffin, to build your team around. Plenty of lists exist that rank the top prospects and then simply watching young players will give you all the information you need to know about which young studs to target. If you are able to land these young players, your team will be looking good for many years to come. But what if you don't land them for whatever reason? Don't fret, because there are always hidden gems to be found - a player who may not help you immediately but could be a key player in a year or two. I believe Brice Matthews is one of those hidden gems. Now 24, he has not set the world on fire during his brief major league career. But the tools are there for him to break out. Let's take a look at Mr. Matthews
