Jackie Bradley Jr. (OF, BOS) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 28% of leagues

ANALYSIS: Boston's jack-of-all-trades outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr. has had a sub par 2018 thus far, but over the last week has shown signs of putting it all together. While his season line of .224/.316/.373 leaves a lot to be desired, he hit .300 with five runs batted in and his first two home runs on the year.

His batting average on balls in play sits at a minuscule .250, more than 60 points below his career average. His batting line is bound to recover as that BABIP normalizes. Bradley is hitting for solid contact and, at this point, below average pop. He's seeing the ball well and has improved over 2017, as 73.2% of his cuts are coming against pitches inside the zone. He's also making better contact on those pitches, to the tune of a career-best 83.7%.

No one is expecting a rebound to his 2016 All-Star campaign level, but there is potential that Bradley's luck turns around and he becomes a solid contributor across the board while not hurting your average or strikeout metrics.
