Mac Williamson (OF, SF) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 10% of leagues

ANALYSIS: From last Sunday to Wednesday, San Francisco Giants' outfielder Mac Williamson broke out, hitting .364 with two home runs and four runs batted in before crashing into the outfield wall and going onto the 7-day concussion list. When he returns, it will be to little fanfare, as the 27-year-old has not had enough time to really establish himself from a statistical perspective. However, Williamson has nailed three bombs in 19 major league at-bats, with six more in just fifty at-bats this season at Triple-A. This gives Williamson nine home runs across 69 plate appearances! Williamson is absolutely destroying the ball, and he is doing so courtesy of a shiny new swing developed over the winter.

The power for Big Mac has always been there, but he has generally struggled to get to it. With his back against the wall, he sought a private hitting coach and completely remodeled how he approaches at-bats. There have been studies on Williamson's new approach, but the Cliff's Notes include A) he has a new swing, B) he is smacking the noise out of the ball, and C) his new approach has been compared favorably to Justin Turner, by very smart baseball people to boot. That is enough for me to go in; jump on him now before the rest of your league catches on.
