Mid-Week Waiver Wire Rankings - Fantasy Baseball Pickups Including Esteury Ruiz, Kyle Finnegan, Akil Baddoo, Nolan Jones

Nolan Jones fantasy baseball rankings draft sleepers waiver wire pickups

Mid-week fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings and free agent pickups heading into Week 15. Priority hitters and pitchers to add and stream off the waiver wire.

Welcome back RotoBallers to our fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings heading into Week 15 of the MLB season. We recently recommended to add players like Nick Senzel, Brayan Bello, Nick Lodolo, Darick Hall and Luis Patino. We are here today as always to help you pickup the best fantasy baseball hitters and pitchers for your lineups for this week as well.

For anyone who isn't familiar, every Friday, Saturday and Sunday we release all sorts of fantasy baseball waiver wire articles. 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.

Well going forward, we will also be 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.

Be sure to check all of our fantasy baseball lineup tools and resources:
