Adam Duvall (OF, CIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues and NL-Only Leagues

OWNED IN: 4% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: In his first full MLB season, Adam Duvall is showing that he has what it takes to compete with the big boys in the power department, with six home runs and 11 RBI thus far. Not unlike fellow Cincinnati great Adam Dunn, it seems that all Duvall does is strikeout and hit homers. Unfortunately, with an OBP of .298, Duvall does not walk nearly as much as Dunn did, making his astronomical 31.3% career K% much harder to swallow. Still, despite his struggles to make contact, Duvall sure can slug. His .551 slugging percentage is top-10 among MLB outfielders. That alone makes his extremely low ownership difficult to comprehend, considering most leagues do not include a strikeout category for hitters.
