Davis Schneider is a top fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for Week 12 (2024). Fantasy baseball managers should add Schneider as a waiver wire free agent in all leagues.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Formats
ROSTERED IN: 51% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Milwaukee Brewers infielder Joey Ortiz has seen some success in his first full major league season. After being dealt from the Baltimore Orioles to the Brewers this offseason in the Corbin Burnes deal, Ortiz has become a surprise contributor in Milwaukee's lineup this year.
Ortiz is currently hitting .292 with five home runs, 12 doubles, and 23 RBI through the first 56 games. The 25-year-old continues to see the ball well at the plate and should be rostered in all 12-plus team leagues moving forward.
There is only ONE player in the Major Leagues right now that ranks in the 80th percentile or higher in walk rate, strikeout rate, sprint speed, and bat speed.

The Brewers third baseman has been one of the biggest rookie surprises in 2024 and has contributed solid fantasy numbers all season. He has a current 14-game on-base streak while tallying a hit in nine of the past 10 contests. The sky is the limit for Ortiz, a player MLB Pipeline had as their No. 63 overall prospect heading into the year. Make sure to pick him up before Week 12 begins because his rostership continues to climb.

Chandler Simpson - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)
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. While this was very cute and should improve the vibes a little bit in Washington, I don't think Bruce the Bat Dog will help […]
Samuel Basallo - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)
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, […]
Colby Thomas - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues CALL-UP ETA: July ANALYSIS: The A's continue to lose, and Colby Thomas continues to hit homers in Triple-A.
