Jarrod Dyson (OF, KC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Deep Mixed Leagues, AL-Only leagues

OWNED IN: 3% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: After missing the first few weeks of the season with an oblique strain, Jarrod Dyson was back in action Tuesday night against the Tigers. The speedy outfielder has been batting ninth in the order and has already swiped two bases in his first three games. In his rehab assignment with Triple-A Omaha, Dyson went 7-for-22 with four stolen bases. Even with the missed time, Dyson is a candidate to steal over 40 bags in 2016, as he projects to a career average of 53 steals over a 162-game span. With regular starting time, Dyson could be a top-five base stealer. With a career batting average of .255, Dyson won't give you the overall offensive production of a Jose Altuve or a Dee Gordon, but he is much more reliable than Billy Hamilton, who couldn't find first base if it were hidden beneath his pillow at night. Scoop up Dyson before the rest of your league remembers who he is.
