Ezequiel Tovar: is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for hitters heading into Week 9 (2023). Target Tovar as a free agent shortstop on the waiver wire.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 27% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Ezequiel Tovar was a hot commodity during draft season, but an early-season slump had many fantasy managers cast him aside. This was a mistake for two reasons. First, he's only 21 years old and will be prone to some rookie struggles. Second, the Rockies are yet to play a full week of games in the hitter's paradise known as Coors Field, where Tovar has, expectedly, been much better this season.

Tovar's slugging percentage is 101 points higher at home, and the Rockies are set for a full seven-game slate of games in Denver this week. Tovar is worth starting this week simply based on his home/road splits:
