Wenceel Perez is a top fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for Week 7 (2024). Fantasy baseball managers should add Perez as a waiver wire free agent in all leagues.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 15+ Team Five-Outfielder Leagues/AL-Only
ROSTERED IN: 10% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Detroit Tigers outfield prospect Wenceel Perez has recently taken over center field duties and has not looked back.
Over his first 21 major league games, the 24-year-old Perez has demonstrated his potential with a .286/.366/.508 line, including three home runs and two stolen bases. His performance includes six multi-hit games, with a standout two-home run game on April 30.

Perez has shown a great ability to get on base, with an above-average 11.3% walk rate, which allows him to showcase his speed. Baseball Savant places Perez in the top 84th percentile in sprint speed. He has already stolen two bases, and that number can quickly increase, given his skill set.
If you need a fifth outfielder who can provide a solid combination of power and speed and the potential to be in the lineup every day, look no further than Perez. He should be rostered in deeper five-outfielder and AL-only formats.
