Mid-Week Waiver Wire Rankings - Fantasy Baseball Pickups: Ceddanne Rafaela, Chad Green, Ben Rice, Harrison Bader, Tyler Locklear, DJ Herz

Ceddanne Rafaela - Waiver Wire Rankings, DFS, Fantasy Baseball

Mid-week fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings for Week 13 (2024). Free-agent hitters and pitchers to add include Ceddanne Rafaela, Chad Green, Ben Rice, Harrison Bader, Tyler Locklear, DJ Herz.

Howdy, RotoBallers! The All-Star break is rapidly approaching as the first half of the 2024 season will soon be coming to a close. We are back with our mid-week waiver wire rankings for Week 13 -- June 17 through June 23 -- to help you stay on top of the waiver wire, especially in leagues that allow daily moves. Ben Rice, Tyler Black, and Adam Kloffenstein were called up to the big leagues. Other top prospects, such as the patient Noelvi Marte, Christian Scott, Shane Baz, Coby Mayo, Jace Jung, and Dylan Crews, await the call to the big leagues.

Some notable recent performances and injury notes include Boston Red Sox outfielder Ceddanne Rafaela, who is slashing .615/.643/.846 with a home run, four RBI, six runs, and two stolen bases over his last seven games. The Yankees called up top catcher prospect Ben Rice on Tuesday. The 25-year-old is hitting .286 (2-for-7) with an RBI over two contests. Washington Nationals left-hander DJ Herz allowed one hit and no walks while striking out 13 over six scoreless innings in his third MLB career start on Saturday. Injuries continue to pile up as Anthony Rizzo, Yimi Garcia, and Walker Buehler were recently placed on the injured list. At the same time, Aaron Judge, Yordan Alvarez, Nolan Jones, CJ Abrams, Pete Fairbanks, and Abraham Toro are day-to-day with injuries.

This edition features players such as Ceddanne Rafaela, Ben Rice, DJ Herz, Harrison Bader, Tyler Locklear, Zach Neto, Josh Smith, MJ Melendez, JJ Bleday, Tobias Myers, Hunter Goodman, and Michael Busch. We're here, as always, to help you stay on top of the latest waiver-wire options, especially in leagues that allow for daily moves. Prospects that are making impacts continue to be called up, so you'll need to be informed. Be sure to stay on top of our weekly waiver wire rankings and turn on MLB news alerts to stay ahead of the curve. Once you're done here, check out our fantasy baseball prospects articles for the latest names to stash and pick up.

Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups List

For anyone unfamiliar, we release all sorts of fantasy baseball waiver wire articles every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. As part of that, Nick Mariano releases our waiver wire rankings list on Sundays to help you prioritize which players to target as free-agent adds off waivers.

In addition, we are also putting out a second waiver wire rankings list mid-week. Since many fantasy baseball leagues have daily waiver-wire moves or multiple waiver-wire runs per week for adding players, this mid-week rankings list should help you keep track of players emerging in the middle of the week before we reach Sunday.

This article will guide you with our weekly ranking for the relevant waiver-wire pickup options, including how to prioritize them for your league (depending on the league size). Roster % is from Yahoo leagues.
