Five Outfield Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds for Week 23

Hopefully you enjoyed the long weekend, and hopefully your team is still in the race for the prize now that we're on the other side of it. RotoBaller will be here to the bitter end of baseball season, offering the same analysis and advice that's helped countless owners navigate their way to success all year.

Here, we'll cover this week's adds in the outfield. As always, these players are freely available in the majority of fantasy baseball leagues.

Editor’s Note: To read about even more waiver wire options, be sure to check out our famous waiver wire pickups list which is a running list that is updated daily.

 

Outfield Waiver Wire Pickups

Avisail Garcia (CWS) - 47 percent owned

While Garcia is a player I've always been more bearish on than most, production is production. The White Sox right fielder has bounced back from a midsummer swoon and filled up the box score over the past month. He's posted a solid .274 average and .761 OPS with 18 runs, 18 RBI, three homers, and two steals over that span. Still just 24, Garcia can generate some 2016 sleeper buzz for himself with a strong finish to the year.

 

Jayson Werth (WAS) - 44 percent

It's been a difficult season for Werth - and for many of his teammates - but he's shown signs of life in recent weeks. Thanks in part to a nine-game hitting streak that includes three homers, Werth has an .872 OPS over the last month of action. The Nationals are five games behind the Mets in the NL East race, and they'll need Werth to continue his resurgence to have any chance of erasing that deficit.

 

Stephen Piscotty (STL) - 41 percent

Though he's gone hitless in his last two games, the Cardinals rookie had hit safely in a dozen straight games before that. Half of those were multi-hit efforts. Piscotty has done nothing but hit since getting promoted to the majors in July, producing a .327/.359/.516 line with four homers and 46 R+RBI in his 43 games. With Matt Holliday still a couple of weeks away from returning from a nagging quad injury, Piscotty should continue to get regular playing time.

 

Mark Canha (OAK) - 11 percent

The Athletics have had a historically unlucky campaign, but Canha is certainly finishing strong. Over the last month, he's hit .327/.367/.574 with five homers, 18 runs, and 22 RBI. He's been a streaky hitter all season, but the thing about streaky hitters is that they can carry your team when hot. At this time of year, that could be the difference between a championship and another season amongst the also-rans.

 

Chris Coghlan (CHC) - 9 percent

Fantasy owners have overlooked Coghlan all season, but it's time for that to end. Since the break, the former Rookie of the Year has compiled an .812 OPS with seven homers, four steals, and 39 R+RBI in 42 games for the Cubs. He has an outside shot at finishing with a 20/15 season, a feat only eight players accomplished last season. Coghlan also retains eligibility at second base, giving you added flexibility in roster management. There's no reason his ownership rate should be in the single digits.
