Fantasy Baseball Watchlist: Key Waiver Wire and Trade Targets

The latest edition of 'The Watchlist' focuses on fantasy baseball players to consider for waiver wire pickups and trades. This column aims to assist players in identifying potential additions that could enhance their fantasy teams in the upcoming weeks.

Michael Toglia, recently acquired by the Cincinnati Reds after Nathaniel Lowe's trade to the Cleveland Guardians, is expected to have an increased role. In his initial five games with the Reds, Toglia has played both first base and right field. His previous season in Triple-A saw him achieve a .273 batting average with a .373 on-base percentage, alongside 22 home runs.

Additionally, Ben Joyce of the Los Angeles Angels has emerged as a potential closer, having secured the last two saves for the team. Despite the Angels' struggles this season, Joyce has not allowed a run in five innings and has shown promise with his strikeout ability. Both players are worth considering for fantasy leagues as the season progresses.
