Michael Morse (1B / OF, SF) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues

ANALYSIS: Michael Morse is having a solid year at the dish, and his power numbers should be enticing for fantasy owners in deeper leagues, especially given the flexibility offered by Morse's multi-position eligibility. Playing 1B and OF for the Giants this year, Morse is slashing .286/.341/.487 with 16 HR and 56 RBI on the year. But to go along with that solid line, Morse has been hot at the plate recently. In his last ten games, Morse has been on base 17 times and now has two consecutive 3-hit games. He also has 9 RBIs in that same time-frame. The Giants are in the midst of a series against the Cubs, and Morse has performed particularly well on the road, collecting 10 of his 16 dingers away from San Francisco. Morse is definitely worth a pickup in leagues of more than ten teams.
