Tyler Naquin (OF, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, AL-Only Leagues

OWNED IN: 22% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: Tyler Naquin is quietly having a tremendous season for the surging Tribe, evidenced by a .324/.387/.636 slash line in 63 games. The performance could have been overlooked when the sample size was small, but with 196 Major League plate appearances under his belt, the 25-year-old rookie looks like he might be here to stay. Better yet, he's been getting hotter with each month. He closed out the first half with four homers in his last eight games and has started off the second half with a bang. He's started every game while going 7-for-17 with three home runs, six runs scored and seven RBI. Don't let this guy dangle atop the waiver wire for much longer. If this level of play continues, which his minor league numbers indicate it will, Naquin will likely be claimed by the end of the week.
