Week 11 Waiver Wire Rankings - Fantasy Baseball Pickups Include Elly De La Cruz, Matt McLain, Ezequiel Duran, Andrew Abbott

Ezequiel Duran - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, MLB Prospects

Fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings for Week 11 of the 2023 MLB season. These are free agent options to add off waivers, and our rankings will help you prioritize.

Welcome back RotoBallers to our fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings for Week 11 -- June 5 through June 11. May is in the books as we turn the calendar page toward June. More top prospects are being called up to the big leagues, and some are producing for fantasy managers immediately. Jordan Walker, Royce Lewis, Ben Joyce, A.J. Smith-Shawver, Bryan Woo, Andrew Abbott, Elly De La Cruz, and Jonny DeLuca were recently promoted. Jordan WestburgChristian Encarnacion-Strand, and Ronny Mauriciocontinue to rake in the minors. At the same time, Gavin Williams, Ben Brown, and Emmet Sheehan have pitched well and are patiently waiting for a promotion to the majors. 

Fantasy managers might have some injured stars return soon, such as Cleveland Guardians right-hander Triston McKenzie (shoulder), who is set to make his season debut on Sunday. The Texas Rangers activated utility man Ezequiel Duran (oblique) from the injured list on Saturday. Notable injury notes include Wander Franco (hamstring), Byron Buxton (ribs), Carlos Correa (heel), Amed Rosario (knee), Gunnar Henderson (back), Luke Raley (side), and Zach Neto (foot) being considered day-to-day. Justin Steele (forearm), Joey Gallo (hamstring), and TJ Friedl (hamstring) were all placed on the injured list. The ball is flying out of the yard as offenses are heating up. We are here to help sort it all out with our latest waiver wire rankings article.

This week's waiver wire rankings feature players such as Matt McLain, Ezequiel Duran, Elly De La Cruz, Jose Siri, Willi Castro, Giovanny Gallegos, Royce Lewis, Miguel Castro, James Paxton, Garrett Whitlock, Ben Lively, Nolan Jones, Gavin Williams, Mark Leiter Jr., Zach McKinstry, MacKenzie Gore, Andrew Abbott, Jonny DeLuca and where they rank, among others. Read more to see where these players rank in the waiver wire rankings for Week 11.

Week 11 Waiver Wire Roundup for Fantasy Baseball

Just like any other week, we have put together a full assortment of fantasy baseball waiver wire articles. You can see that full roundup below to help prepare you for Sunday night's waiver wire runs for leagues with weekly transactions.

For those who are not familiar, our team's fantasy baseball waiver wire articles get published on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays each week. First up is our closers and saves waiver wire report by David Marcillo, followed by our two-start pitcher streamers article by Pranav Uppalapati released late each week to give you a head start on the week ahead.

For you premium subscribers, you get our overall waiver wire article, compliments of Nick Mariano. These will give you a solid overview of the waiver wire options. RotoBaller's resident points league guru Nick Gaut brings you his weekly points league pickups for hitters.

In addition to these articles, we also dig deeper for each position with individual waiver wire articles: starting pitcher pickups, outfield pickups, 2B and SS pickups, 1B and 3B pickups, deep fantasy hitter pickups, and players to consider dropping.

 

Who To Pickup for Fantasy Baseball Week 11?

Are you looking for a more direct and structured list of prioritized players to add off the waiver wire? This article is the final piece of the weekly waiver wire pickups series, and its goal is to show you our weekly ranking for the relevant waiver wire pickup options, including how to prioritize them for your league (depending on the league size).

So below, you will find the overall rankings list. Below that, each individual position is in priority order. Hopefully, this helps you win your waiver wire this week!
