Brandon Moss (1B/OF, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

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

OWNED IN: 43% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: Since returning from an ankle injury, Brandon Moss has picked up right where he left off in a resurgent 2016. He’s hitting .282/.312/.606 with six homers and 28 R+RBI in 18 August contests. Overall, he’s produced a .912 OPS and hit 23 homers in just 93 games. The veteran isn’t a perfect player by any means. He usually sits against southpaws and struggles when he doesn’t, and is currently running a strikeout rate north of 30 percent. Still, it’s surprising that this kind of power production is sitting on the wire in so many leagues.
