Mid-week fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings for Week 23 (2025). Free-agent hitters and pitchers to add include Colson Montgomery, Kyle Bradish, Ian Seymour, Parker Messick, Jared Triolo, and Emmet Sheehan.
September has arrived, and there are only a few more weeks left in the MLB regular season. It's time to focus on who you could add to make your team instantly better for the final stretch of the year. At RotoBaller HQ, we are back with more fantasy baseball advice and have our updated top 100 hitters and pitchers list for Week 23--September 1 through September 7-- to help fantasy managers stay on top of the waiver wire in leagues that allow daily moves.
There are key performances, prospect promotions, and injuries to watch for this week. Chicago White Sox infielder Colson Montgomery continues to rake and has homered six times over his last 10 games. Baltimore Orioles right-hander Kyle Bradish returned from the injured list in late August and has posted a 3.60 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, and 15 strikeouts over 10 innings (two starts). A key injury to monitor is Boston Red Sox top prospect Roman Anthony, who was placed on the injured list with a left oblique strain.
For anyone unfamiliar, we release all sorts of fantasy baseball waiver wire articles every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. 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.
