Bryan Woo is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for pitchers heading into Week 16 (2023). Target Woo as a free agent pitcher on the waiver wire.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 40% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Seattle started the season with a full stable of effective, experienced starting pitchers. With Robbie Ray out for the year recovering from Tommy John surgery and Marco Gonzales nursing a worrisome forearm strain, Bryan Woo and Bryce Miller have emerged as strong rookie arms for the Mariners.
The 23-year-old Woo was promoted directly from Double-A when Gonzales hit the injured list. Woo has impressed with a 3.63 ERA backed up by a robust 3.08 FIP through 34.2 innings pitched in the MLB. Woo leads with a lethal fastball, averaging 95mph, and has registered a 30.5 K% this season. He has maintained a K% above 30.0% at each stop in the minors and now the MLB.
With 78.2 IP between Double-A and the MLB this season, Woo should remain in the Seattle rotation for the remainder of the regular season, although a late-year demotion for innings management is possible. His strikeout potential significantly lifts his floor, particularly in points leagues. He is a safe SP3 for any manager and may rise to the level of a solid SP2 if the Mariners can provide adequate run support to boost his wins total. If Woo is still available, add him to raise your strikeout total and stabilize your ratios.

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. The A's just got swept by the Angels, bringing their record to 26-44. While plays like Denzel Clarke's HR robbery can generate a spark for a team, the A's might need […]
