Steve Pearce (1B/2B/OF, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

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

OWNED IN: 31% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: Steve Pearce returned from a month-long stint on the DL last week,  and the performance has been spotty since his return. He's gone 6-for-24 with a dinger and four RBI. But Pearce has as much potential as anybody in a utility role. Before hitting the DL in June, Pearce was slashing a tremendous .322/.393/.540 with 25 RBI and 23 runs scored. Counting stats are hard to come by in Tampa Bay this year, but Pearce has been known to go on power streaks before. With Baltimore, he slugged eight long balls in one month with a 1.188 OPS. If you need a bench addition for your team, this is your guy. He is currently eligible at 1B, 2B and OF, and he's got a lot more upside than someone like Brock Holt.
