Mitch Moreland (1B, BOS) - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 30% of leagues

ANALYSIS: Boston Red Sox first baseman Mitch Moreland has four games against the Orioles this week, and if that is not reason enough to start him, there is more. The righty-masher has a home run every 20.2 at bats against righties in his career with a .258 average. This year, he has batted .339 against them with a homer every 11.8 at bats.

He should face six right-handed starters this week. However, he has also managed to hold his own against lefties this year, posting a .325/6/15/19/1 line overall on the year. In the middle of a Boston lineup that is second in the majors in runs per game, Moreland should provide power and run production this week, with the possibility of a decent average. Facing good pitching matchups, he is this week's top streamer. With a 1.009 OPS that has forced him into a potent Red Sox lineup, Moreland can also be held as a CI in all formats.
