Tyler White (1B, HOU) - Week 23 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues

OWNED IN: 39% of leagues

ANALYSIS: Tyler White was first introduced when his ownership level was at 2%. Though his ownership has risen, he is still under-owned. White routinely bats in the middle third of one of the best lineups in the league. Jose Altuve, Carlos Correa, and George Springer have all returned from the disabled list. The Astros have their full complement of weapons, which should only increase White’s counting stats. His last two weeks have been a prime example of his performance in the second half. In the last 14 days, White has hit four homers, 12 RBI, and a .333 batting average.

White will take on the Twins at home before a road series against the Red Sox. He will face an equal number of games against right-handed pitchers (3) as he does against left-handers (3). The beautiful part about it is that he doesn’t care who is on the mound, he hits well against both left-handers (.333) and right-handers (.296). Although White is markedly better at home (.350), his .273 batting average on the road should not deter anyone from enlisting his services. Find a way to get him in your lineup.
