Kipp's top hitter streamers and starts as fantasy baseball waiver wire adds for Week 10 of 2026 (June 1 to June 7). He analyzes streamers with favorable matchups, schedules.
Welcome to another edition of Top Hitter Streamers and Starts for Week 10. I am filling in for my guy, Thunder Dan Palyo, and hope to help fantasy managers out with some solid streaming options this week. We all know drafting a foundational roster in fantasy baseball is imperative, but it is equally important to find standout streamers when the time calls for it. I recommend streaming when your lower-end hitters are in a slump, as a hot-hitting waiver candidate can fill in nicely under this scenario.
My weekly hitters, streamers, fantasy baseball waiver-wire pickups column will identify hitters with favorable matchups who can be considered for waiver-wire pickups or streamers ahead of Sunday night's waiver-wire runs in leagues with weekly transactions. Because of format changes to Yahoo leagues this year, the players featured in this article are rostered in 30% or fewer leagues on Yahoo (yes, I'm increasing this number as the wire is already getting picked over pretty aggressively this season).
You can also check out the rest of our fantasy baseball streamer content here at RotoBaller. Now, let's see which hitters we should consider grabbing off the wire as we roll into Week 10 of the fantasy baseball season!

Week 10 Fantasy Baseball Hitter Streamers
I'll recommend only players who are rostered 30 percent or fewer in leagues, and all roster percentages are from Yahoo!
Ryan Waldschmidt, OF - ARI (27%)
I noticed Waldschmidt was listed here last week, and I have not been given a reason to exclude him this week, as his torrid start continues. Over the previous two weeks, he ranks 103rd overall in Yahoo! leagues. He is a great source for stolen bases, given that he racked up 29 steals in the minors last season and has snagged five through his first 74 PA in the big leagues.
Jake Burger, 1B - TEX (28%)
Jake Burger is another familiar face in this article; however, people are starting to take note, as his roster share has increased from 8% to 28% over the previous week. He ranks 42nd overall in Yahoo! leagues over the previous two weeks, having smashed three home runs, driven in nine, and scored 11 runs. The Texas offense is starting to hum, and Burger has been a big part of that lately.
Curtis Mead, 1B/2B/3B - WSH (16%)
You will notice several Washington Nationals on this list, as their offense is really heating up and performing well overall this season. Mead is multi-position eligible and is ranked 61st overall in Yahoo! leagues over the previous two weeks. He has been on a power binge, mashing four home runs and driving in six over his previous 36 at-bats.
Sam Antonacci, 2B/3B/OF - CWS (24%)
The White Sox are another surprise offense, and Sam Antonacci has been a big part of that recently. Over the previous two weeks, he ranks 67th overall in Yahoo! leagues. While he does not provide a ton of power, he is hitting .319 with five steals and nine runs scored. He has hits in five straight games through Friday night and now has a .386 OBP for the season.
Jacob Young, OF - WSH (6%)
Jacob Young is our second of three Nationals on this list, and he has provided a ton of power over the previous two weeks, mashing four home runs and posting a 1.167 OPS over that span. He ranks 75th in Yahoo! leagues over that span and might be starting to find his niche in the big leagues after struggling through his first two-plus seasons.
Keibert Ruiz, C - WSH (19%)
Our final National is Keibert Ruiz, and he is a must-add in most formats for me simply because he plays the most premium position in fantasy baseball at catcher. Over the previous two weeks, he ranks 82nd overall in Yahoo! leagues, posting a 1.245 OPS with two home runs and 10 RBI.
On the season, he is posting a .798 OPS through 35 games, so he is definitely worth a look, especially when you consider how hot this Nationals lineup has been in 2026, as they currently rank fourth overall in all of baseball with a 110 wRC+ mark.
Anthony Volpe, SS - NYY (8%)
We are all too familiar with Anthony Volpe and his struggles, but he is swinging a hot bat at the moment and is worth playing while hot. He made his 2026 debut in the middle of May and is ranked 91st in Yahoo! leagues over the previous two weeks.
The fact that he plays in such a potent Yankees lineup only helps his value, and he has managed to score and drive in seven runs over those two weeks. I have never been a huge fan of Volpe, but perhaps he will turn it around and truly begin to show off the talent the Yankees have expected for some time now.
Spencer Horwitz, 1B - PIT (16%)
Spencer Hortwitz has been cooking for the Pirates, posting a .981 OPS with three home runs and six RBI over the previous two weeks. This has been good enough to rank him 98th in Yahoo! leagues over that span. On the season, he is posting an OPS of .848, so he could be a long-term add for your roster.
Kyle Manzardo, 1B - CLE (7%)
It is no secret that I am a huge Cleveland Guardians fan, so including Kyle Manzardo in here while he is hot is definitely not something I want to pass up. He is one of the better power hitters the Guardians have, and he has hit three home runs while posting a .954 OPS over the previous two weeks.
This is good enough to rank him 138th overall in Yahoo! leagues over that span. Last season, Manzardo hit 27 dingers and drove in 70 runs, so the power we are seeing is real. He has just five total home runs this season, but those numbers should start to creep up now that the weather is heating up across the country.
Cam Smith, OF - HOU (14%)
Cam Smith is starting to settle into a groove and is a player I rostered last season. Over the previous two weeks, he has posted a .913 OPS with two home runs. He has collected hits in nine of his past 11 games, which is also reassuring. This run is good enough to rank him 152nd in Yahoo! leagues over the previous two weeks.
I cannot say for certain if Smith can carry this hot streak much further, but if you need outfield help at the moment, he makes for a nice addition, especially if this Astros' lineup starts to heat up.
Week 10 Deep League Fantasy Baseball Hitter Streamers
Some widely available hitters (under 5% rostered) could be worth a look this week due to hot starts at the plate or strong matchups.
- Joc Pederson, Util - TEX (3%)
- Isiah Kiner-Falefa, 2B/3B/SS - TEX (2%)
- Leody Taveras, OF - BAL (4%)
- Mike Yastrzemski, OF - ATL (2%)
- Blaze Alexander, 2B/3B/SS/OF - BAL (3%)
- Trevor Larnach, OF - MIN (2%)
- Ryan McMahon, 3B - NYY (2%)
Good luck this week, and choose those streaming options wisely! As always, thanks for making RotoBaller your choice for fantasy baseball content all season long!
