Amed Rosario (SS, NYM) - Week 26 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 42% of leagues

ANALYSIS: New York Mets shortstop Amed Rosario has been a regular presence in this space down the stretch. His ownership rate has risen substantially during that time, but he still comes in well below the cutoff. Since August 1, the 22-year-old has hit .302/.332/.454 with five home runs, 12 stolen bases, and 57 R+BI in 45 games.

2018 ended up being a season to forget in Queens, but the Mets have had a top-five scoring offense in the second half. Rosario’s performance out of the leadoff spot has keyed that surge and bodes well for his future.
