Five Outfield Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds for Week 26

Here we are - the final week of the season. Congratulations on making it this far. Good luck, and thanks for reading all year! RotoBaller will bring you plenty of offseason content, but for now, let's take one last look at the waiver wire.

 

Editor’s Note: to read about even more waiver wire options for the outfield, be sure to check out our famous waiver wire pickups list which is a running list that is updated daily.

Outfield Pickups

Kevin Pillar (TOR) - 40 percent owned

The Blue Jays rookie has been up and down at the plate all season, with 200+ point swings in his monthly OPS marks. He's had an excellent September, posting a .288/.330/.488 line with three homers and eight steals. Pillar is overshadowed by the star-studded lineup around him, but he's quietly put together a 12/25 season and figures to generate some sleeper buzz next season. Toronto clinched their first playoff berth in 22 years on Saturday and will look to wrap up the AL East title in the next few days. Pillar can likewise help your fantasy team lock down a championship this week.

 

Stephen Piscotty (STL) - 33 percent

Though he has only hit six home runs in 222 at-bats since joining the Cardinals, Piscotty boasts a .315/.369/.500 line and 66 R+RBI. Of course, with as much success as this season's rookie class has had, it's been relatively easy to overlook what he's done. That might explain how Piscotty is free for the taking in two-thirds of Yahoo leagues. Even with Randal Grichuk and Matt Holliday returning from injury, manager Mike Matheny has kept Piscotty in the lineup, playing him mostly at first base. Given how well he has hit, that figures to continue.

 

Angel Pagan (SF) - 19 percent

Pagan's overall numbers don't inspire much confidence, but he's been quite valuable as of late. The veteran is hitting .307/.378/.489 with three homers and five steals since returning from the disabled list on September 1. The Giants are out of the race, of course, since it's an odd-numbered year. Still, you have to think their front office is pleased to see Pagan playing well down the stretch since he's signed for next season at a cool $10 million.

 

Domingo Santana (MIL) - 6 percent

With the news that Ryan Braun will be shut down for the remainder of the season, Santana should start every game for the Brewers as they finish a difficult 2015. He was a key piece of the Carlos Gomez trade and has performed well since joining Milwaukee, compiling an .841 OPS with half a dozen homers in 32 games. The near 40 percent whiff rate is certainly far from ideal, but Santana has also managed a double-digit walk rate. And after striking out 14 times in 17 at-bats last season, this year's production represents a giant leap forward.

 

Aaron Altherr (PHI) - 1 percent

Since we discussed him last week, Altherr became the first player to record an inside-the-park grand slam since Randy Winn in 1999. He's hit five homers and stolen six bases in just over a month of major league action. Despite the sorry state of the Phillies' lineup, he has also totaled 38 R+RBI. Philadelphia is all but assured of finishing with the league's worst record, but Altherr is part of an increasingly bright future.
