Mid-Week Waiver Wire Watchlist

In this week’s WWWR, we’ve got a long list of players who, in a lot of cases, were owned more than 25% but have dipped below which opens this door. The future is bright for names like Casas, Kirilloff, Marsh, Siri, and Kim. Some surprise pitching help too, as all 5 have been very productive.

Mid-Week Waiver Wire Watchlist

Must-Adds

These players shouldn’t be on your waiver wire, if they are, go get ‘em.

I don’t really see any players that are obvious no-brainers in anything but the deepest of leagues.

Deeper Dives

These players should be considered for 15+ team leagues.

  • Ha Seong Kim, 2B, SS – Padres
  • Chris Taylor, 2B, SS, 3B, LF, CF, RF – Dodgers
  • Josh Rojas, 2B, 3B – Diamondbacks
  • Alex Kirilloff, 1B, LF, RF – Twins

This weekly report is designed to provide insight into players who may be available on your waiver wire in a 10-12 team fantasy baseball league. Each week, we will provide a list of “Must-Adds” (ahem, players who shouldn’t be on the waiver wire) as well as some “Deeper-Dives” who should be considered to fill a specific need or to plug an open roster spot. Anyone mentioned on the “Deeper-Dives” list should be considered a must-add for deeper leagues (15-30 team leagues) or could be considered a possible player to target in trade. Double-Downs are players who have previously been mentioned that should be considered in all formats. It should be noted we will never repeat a player from previous reports as a “Must-Add” or “Deeper-Dive”. Generally speaking, players on this list will have a consensus ownership of 25% or less.
