Top Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups for This Week

This week's fantasy baseball waiver wire column highlights players who can significantly contribute to specific categories. The focus is on individuals rostered in fewer than 45% of Yahoo leagues, providing targeted options for managers looking to improve their teams.

Tristan Peters has been a standout, hitting five home runs in five days, raising his total to 12, with a batting average of .279. He has also scored 54 runs and driven in 52, alongside seven stolen bases. His recent performance includes an on-base percentage over .400, making him a valuable asset as the White Sox compete in a division race.

Walker Jenkins, a recent call-up for the Twins, is noted for his all-around skills despite not being a top base stealer. The fifth overall pick in the 2023 draft, Jenkins has already made an impact in his early MLB games. Other notable players include Javier Sanoja, who has been consistently hitting well, and Colton Cowser, who is expected to perform strongly in upcoming matchups. Additionally, the Mariners are promoting Lazaro Montes, a powerful hitter from the minors, while pitchers like Cal Quantrill and Randy Vasquez are making strong cases for fantasy lineups with impressive recent performances.
