Henry Bolte Emerging as a High-End Speed Option on the Waiver Wire
After recording a 1.076 OPS across 177 plate appearances to open the year at Triple-A, Athletics outfielder Henry Bolte earned a promotion to the big leagues in mid-May. The 22-year-old has continued to hit at the MLB level, slashing .313/.385/.396 with one home run, seven RBI, 10 runs scored, and six stolen bases across 109 plate appearances since making his debut. Bolte has struck out in 29.4% of his trips to the plate, so his batting average is likely to fall off to some degree as his .453 batting average on balls in play regresses to the mean. Still, Bolte has emerged as the everyday center fielder for the Athletics and possesses elite speed. Across 114 minor league games in 2025, Bolte swiped 44 bags. For fantasy managers in need of speed, Bolte profiles as a high-upside waiver wire target.
