Heston Kjerstad is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for Week 14 (2024). Target Heston Kjerstad as a top prospect free-agent waiver wire pickup for fantasy baseball.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ team leagues
ROSTERED IN: 27% of leagues
ANALYSIS: Will it be any different the second time around? The Baltimore Orioles, in search of a bit of an offensive spark, have called up Heston Kjerstad for his second MLB stint this season. But how much will the talented designated hitter/outfielder play?
The Orioles' offense slumped a bit during the series at Houston over the weekend. Could the call-up of Kjerstad be a sign they are looking to use him as a potential solution? Used sparingly in his first call-up, Kjerstad certainly has the potential to help fantasy teams if given an opportunity for consistent at-bats.
The @Orioles have recalled their No. 4 prospect, Heston Kjerstad.

Kjerstad hit .268 with six homers and 28 RBI since his return to Triple-A Norfolk after his first stint in Baltimore in 2024. The power potential and a spot in a productive Orioles lineup are enough to add Kjerstad in all leagues speculatively. How much he rewards fantasy managers could come down to how much faith Baltimore shows in him.

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.

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, […]
