Woo had one of the roughest starts to a major leaguer a pitcher can have, surrendering six earned runs in just two innings. Currently my #13 catcher, he should quickly rise into my top 10. He’s only stolen three bases, but after stealing 20 in 2022, there’s reason to think he could be very active on the basepaths at the major league level. Through 60 games in 2023, he has an 11% barrel rate, 85% zone contact rate, and 26 XBH. A great mix of power and speed which is usually only reserved for the likes of JT Realmuto. The next man on that list was Bo Naylor, and he’s someone who should be added in all formats. So far, both have lived up to the hype in some regard.
Bo Naylor (C – CLE)Ĭoming into the season, Francisco Alvarez and Gabriel Moreno were all the rage when it came to young catchers. He’s a good mix of power and speed, and everyday at-bats are only going to produce an excellent amount of counting stats moving forward. 554 xSLG, 16.7% barrel rate, and 17% chase rate are all in the 94th percentile or higher. His Statcast is also the most beautiful shade of bright red all over the place. Pham has become a regular in the Met’s starting lineup and is producing at a very good, under-the-radar level. Tommy Pham (OF – NYM)Ī first-timer on this list for me, and it’s been well-deserved as of late. He’s rostered in just 40% of Fantrax leagues, 15% of Yahoo, and 6% of ESPN and deserves a lot more attention than he’s getting. 308 with eight XBH, 12 runs scored, and 13 RBI in 13 games.Īll of his games will come on the road this coming week, but they’re against the struggling Phillies pitching staff and then on the road at Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati. For the month of June, Rosario is hitting.
The production has extended beyond this crazy week he’s already had. At this point, he should be the apple of every fantasy baseball manager’s eye. Waiver Wire Priority Additions Eddie Rosario (OF – ATL)ĭid I already talk about Rosario leading off this article? Yes. That’s how you win championships, though: calculated risks. Many of the choices just end up coming with a lot more inherent risk. At this point of the season, it can be hard to find guys who are widely available and will also offer top-tier production. They’re two players who were also highlighted in my weekly planner from last week, which has become a must-read article. His teammate Orlando Arcia, a former member of this list, had an amazing week as well. Three home runs, six runs scored, and five RBI made him one of the best performers of the week. When I put Eddie Rosario on this list last week and told you I thought he was lined up for a big week, I did not think it was going to be this big of a week.
