Hitters
72% OF Trent Grisham, New York Yankees- Has cooled off, and his batting average now sits at .239, but he still has 13 homers and has also been getting unlucky.
72% C, 1B Augustin Ramirez, Miami Marlins- Has 8 homers but hasn’t impressed much otherwise. Still carries good upside.
*67% 3B, OF Addison Barger, Toronto Blue Jays- 5 of his 7 homers have come in his past 10 games, and he has been great in general for Toronto. His peripheral stats are elite, and Bareger needs to be owned everywhere.
66% 3B, SS, OF Zach McKinstry, Detroit Tigers- Phenomenal triple positional eligibility. He has hit in 7 of his last 10 games as well as 2 steals.
66% 1B, OF Gavin Sheets, San Diego Padres- Up to 11 home runs now despite his inconsistency this season.
*65% OF Austin Hays, Cincinnati Reds- Injured but worth stashing if possible.
*63% OF Jordan Beck, Colorado Rockies- Now riding a 4-game hitting streak, 2 of which were multi-hit performances. It could be heating up!
59% 2B Hyeseong Kim, Los Angeles Dodgers- Despite hitting in the 9 hole, he still plays for the Dodgers and is up to 6 steals. Peripherals show he might be playing over his head a bit, but he is worth adding for those in need of speed while the hits keep landing.
57% SS JP Crawford, Seattle Mariners- Batting leadoff. Has 6 multi-hit performances in his last 10 games!
45% OF Jake Meyers, Houston Astros- Hits in 7 of his last 10 games, with finally another steal his last time out (it had been a while).
44% 1B Ty France, Minnesota Twins- Has been hitting pretty well lately, but the production isn’t quite there yet for fantasy owners. Peripheral stats suggest patience is a virtue here.
39% C Carlos Narvaez, Boston Red Sox- Has been great for the Red Sox lately and is widely available despite the rise in his ownership.
34% OF Mike Tauchman, Chicago White Sox- Batting leadoff now and has hit the ground running. Worth scooping in deeper leagues while he’s wielding a hot bat.
34% SS Robert Hassell, Washington Nationals- Still getting hits but has yet to take a walk. It will be hard to keep that average and production up without plate discipline.
27% 1B, 3B, OF Eric Wagaman, Miami Marlins- Not doing very much of anything right now, but his peripheral stats suggest that could change.
24% 1B,2B, OF Kody Clemens, Minnesota Twins- Now offers triple eligibility. Has 6 home runs in just 89 at bats, but might start to lose playing time unless he breaks out.
12% OF Tyler Freeman, Colorado Rockies- I’ve come to steer clear of all Rockies players, but Freeman might be an exception. He’s riding a 7 game hitting streak and is displaying superb plate discipline while offering some speed to boot. Colorado needs all the help they can ge,t and Freeman has a good prospect pedigree. He makes for a fine add in deeper formats.
Pitchers
*80% SP Eury Perez, Miami Marlins- Perez is about to be activated and carries immense upside. Wins might be a bit tough to come by for Miami, but he needs to be owned everywhere.
79% RP Justin Martinez, Arizona Diamondbacks- Has been shaky since returning, but seems to be re-establishing himself as the guy to own slowly.
78% SP Griffin Canning, New York Mets- The 1 walk and 7 K’s his last time out were encouraging. Hopefully, he can trend in the right direction now, as he would become a decent source of wins and solid arm to own if he can limit the walks, especially.
*77% SP Ryan Weathers, Miami Marlins- Pitched quite well in his first 4 games and has the stuff to keep it up. Priority add. Update: might be injured, but worth holding for now.
*72% RP Emilio Pagan, Cincinnati Reds- Should be owned in all leagues.
71% SP Noah Cameron, Kansas City Royals- Has pitched at least 6 innings and has yet to allow more than 1 run in each of his 5 starts so far. He has a good arm, but his peripherals still scream regression, and rookie pitchers are notorious for their volatility in general.
*70% SP Will Warren, New York Yankees- Has great upside and has been a decent source of wins and K’s, but his 1.413 WHIP has been frustrating. Hard to say what his trajectory is.
*59% SP Kyle Harrison, San Francisco Giants- Rough last start and got injured, but seems to be just a bruise from the comebacker. Still a fairly promising arm to own going forward.
*55% SP Tony Gonsolin, Los Angeles Dodgers- Now on the IL with elbow woes. Worth holding only if you have the IL space.
54% SP, RP Ryan Yarborough, New York Yankees- Disastrous 8-run outing in his last game, but still pitching quite well overall. Worth owning in deeper formats.
44% RP Shelby Miller, Arizona Diamondbacks- Might be worth keeping until Justin Martinez fully re-establishes himself as the closer, but Martinez did convert his past 2 saves (though the most recent included 4 walks).
*40% SP Sawyer Gipson-Long, Detroit Tigers- Rough 1st start, and there ultimately may not be room for him in the rotation, but he’s worth the add in case he pitches well in his 2nd game.
31% SP Mike Soroka, Washington Nationals- Still a sneaky good add in deeper leagues. Back-to-back wins and now up to 3 in 7 games started. Also had 7 K’s his last time out with no runs allowed.
30% RP Ronny Henriquez, Miami Marlins- Might be slowly starting to take over as a better closer option than Calvin Faucher, though Faucher converted his last 2 opportunities. Henriquez, though, has the far superior stuff- elite. Proactive owners may want to scoop him now.
