Lawrence Butler is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for Week 17 (2024). Target Lawrence Butler as a top prospect free-agent add for fantasy baseball.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 13% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: It has been a rough year for Oakland A's outfielder Lawrence Butler. He was hitting just .179 through May 13, and the A's decided to send him down to Triple-A to work on things. But since being called back up on June 18, Butler has seen much more success at the plate.
Over the past 23 games, the 24-year-old is hitting .261 (18-for-69) with seven home runs, three doubles, and 18 RBI. The young outfielder is also heading into the All-Star break with a career performance, hitting three HRs and driving in six runs against the Philadelphia Phillies on July 14.
Lawrence Butler: .364/.391/1.091, 5 HR (3 on Sunday), 13 RBI

As a result, Butler is the most added player in Yahoo! leagues on Monday. He is now 13% rostered after his monster performance in Sunday's 18-3 win over the Phillies. However, the 24-year-old outfielder should only be added in 14-plus team leagues right now.
