Luke Raley is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for hitters heading into Week 15 (2023). Target Raley as a free agent first baseman or outfielder on the waiver wire.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 38% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: What has made Tampa Bay such a threat this year is that their lineup is talented from top to bottom, and each player has had their own individual hot streak where they are nearly unstoppable. The latest Ray to do so is Luke Raley, slashing .304/.407/.609 with a couple of long balls, six RBI, and three walks in his last seven games. He hit .348 alongside a whopping 1.039 OPS across 19 games in June overall.

The 28-year-old started July off on the right foot as well, launching a two-run homer off of George Kirby in the sixth inning on Saturday, although it resulted in an 8-3 loss against the Mariners. Tampa Bay will return home on Tuesday, and while Raley's road numbers are a bit better than his numbers at home, his peripherals are still excellent. He ranks in the 92nd percentile or better in Average Exit Velocity, Max Exit Velocity, xwOBA, Barrel %, and xSLG, per Statcast.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues CALL-UP ETA: July ANALYSIS: Unlike many players currently in the minor leagues, Chandler Simpson has proven he can be a valuable fantasy player at the MLB level.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: The Nationals went viral on social media this week for making a fun call-up. They called up their bat dog from Triple-A.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: Samuel Basallo might be the best hitter in the minors right now, and he has catcher eligibility. What more do you need to know (I know catcher is super deep this year, but still)? Basallo has been an age-to-level monster for the majority of his pro […]
Andrew Painter - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: Painter's last two starts don't give a ton of confidence that he is ready to be in the majors. It may not even be before the All-Star break before we see him, but that does not mean we are in stash territory. The good news is, […]
