Yasmani Grandal (C, LAD) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues

OWNED IN: 42 percent of Fleaflicker leagues

ANALYSIS: Through the end of June, Yasmani Grandal had come to the plate 202 times. In those plate appearances, he produced a .179/.292/.347 line with seven home runs. Since then, Grandal has hit better than any other catcher in baseball. By OPS or wOBA, he's hit better than all but three other players in baseball, period. He's more than doubled his homer total, brought his average up 40 points, and increased his already stellar walk rate. He even stole a base, which is no small feat for a catcher with one of the worst Speed Scores in the majors. After a full calendar year of terrible production, Grandal has finally returned to the All-Star form he flashed in the first half of 2015. He's deserving of a roster spot in any and all formats right now.
