Eduardo Nunez (SS, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

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

Ownership: 1.7% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Eduardo Nunez is slowly finding his way into the lineup regularly-- a result of solid work at the plate on his part and abysmal performances from Eduardo Escobar and the now-demoted Danny Santana. Nunez is hitting .302 on the season, and does have a bit of power for the shortstop position. He’s never seen more than 309 at-bats in a season, and probably won’t get there this year, either. However, in the season he saw 309 at-bats he swiped 22 bags. The speed/power combo is useful in the shortstop/middle infield position, and he should provide good value in the weeks to come.
