Kevin Kiermaier (OF, TB) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep AL-Only Leagues

ANALYSIS: Kevin Kiermaier joined the Rays' in 2014 as a rookie meant to provide depth and defense in the outfield, but found his way into the starting lineup by June. In 2015, his defense will still keep him in the lineup everyday, but his presence at the plate is not a liability by any means. He posted a .263/.315/.450 slash line last year with 10 HR and 5 SB. However, Kiermaier is a surer bet to reach double digit steals than double digit homers in 2015. Given his ability to reach base, Kiermaier has 15 SB potential. He could continue to improve across the board with age and experience, but his current skillset is enough to warrant an add in deep AL-Only Leagues.
