Matt Vierling is a top fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for Week 12 (2024). Fantasy baseball managers should add Vierling as a waiver wire free agent in all leagues.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Formats
ROSTERED IN: 64% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Detroit Tigers third baseman/outfielder Matt Vierling is enjoying a nice breakout campaign in 2024. The 27-year-old is hitting .282 with seven home runs, eight doubles, and 28 RBI this season. Those numbers at the plate have pushed him atop the Tigers' lineup, where he has batted in the lead-off spot in six of the past seven games.
It's hard to ignore what Vierling has done this season, especially as of late. From May 19 to May 29, the utility specialist went 12-for-29 (.414 average) with four HRs and 13 RBI in an eight-game span. While he hasn't totaled a home run or RBI since May 29, he still has provided fantasy managers with some value.

That makes Vierling a nice add in 10-plus team leagues heading into Week 12 (June 10 to June 16). He has long-term fantasy value while hitting atop Detroit's lineup, so grab him now before your league mates do .

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.

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, […]
