Michael Saunders (OF, TOR) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 12% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: It's simple - if Michael Saunders can stay healthy, he can produce. Saunders only saw 36 plate appearances last year in Toronto. The previous season in Seattle, he made 263 plate appearances. In his previous two relatively healthy seasons, his HR/SB production was 19/21 and 12/13 respectively. So far so good this season as Saunders has a pair of homers and a healthy .339 average. Most importantly, he hits at the top of Toronto's lineup and has scored 11 runs in 16 games. Saunders would be a must-add in all formats if there weren't so many injury concerns. At the moment, he is worth starting in 12+ team leagues. Just make sure you have a decent backup plan.
