Mickey Moniak an Elite Power Option Worthy of High FAAB Bid
Colorado Rockies outfielder Mickey Moniak is a hot bat worth scooping off the waiver wire. The former first-overall draft pick is in the midst of an eight-game hit streak that has pushed his season-long slash line to .324/.347/.750 with a .326 wOBA and 182 wRC+. The left-handed hitter has belted eight home runs so far this year, tied for fourth-most in the majors, and is coming off a 24-home run campaign in 2025. The drawback for fantasy is that he rarely sees opportunities against left-handed pitchers, logging just 11 plate appearances against them in 2026 compared to 61 plate appearances against right-handers. Still, with the power he's been displaying, especially at Coors Field, the 27-year-old is a must-add in most leagues, particularly those that allow daily lineup changes. The 6-foot-1 slugger is still available in over 60 percent of Yahoo! leagues for the taking and is worthy of the use of a high-priority waiver claim or FAAB bid.
