Wilmer Flores (SS/2B, NYM) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 8% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Flores is the latest in a long line of sub-par Met shortstops. He’s actually been pretty good at the plate, tagging five homers with double-digits in runs and RBIs. His batting average leaves a lot to be desired, but I expect that to improve to a respectable range—his BABIP is lower than .250 so far. The Metswould love to make him the everyday shortstop, but his defense is making that call really difficult. Of course, defense doesn’t count for anything in most fantasy formats. If he continues to be a liability in the field, he may lose his regular role. Keep an eye on it, but add him for his offense.
