Matt Adams (1B, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only Leagues

OWNED IN: 18% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: Matt Adams played sparingly in April and was unimpressive when he did see the field. May has been a different story, though, as he’s hit .371/.420/.661 with four homers. With Brandon Moss scuffling of late, Adams has an opportunity to seize a bigger piece of the playing time pie. He doesn’t hit for enough power to be your primary first baseman in any but the deepest of formats, but he makes for a fine CI option.
