Waiver Wire Report: Tyler O’Neill Powering Up and Pedroia Returns

Before we dig into this week's waiver wire report, if Juan Soto is still available in your league, go add him right now and scold the rest of your league (and yourself) for not adding him already. As I mentioned in my scouting report, Soto has the skill set to hit over .300 with 35-plus homers annually.

He is currently pursuing a Ph.D., educating physical therapy students and conducting research. I am not sure why the Nationals are going full Belichick on us, but the reality is that Daniel Murphy is months away from playing. Don't buy it? Let's explore. What's wrong with this picture? Two players underwent microfracture surgery in late October: Dustin Pedroia on October 25,…
