Josh Jung a Priority Addition in Fantasy Leagues?
Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung has emerged as a high-end waiver wire addition in fantasy baseball as he continues to swing a hot bat. Now in his fifth MLB season, Jung is slashing with a .309/.365/.474 slash line, five home runs, a 7.3% walk rate, a 14.6% strikeout rate, and 138 wRC+. He's posting career-best marks in nearly every offensive category, but his most significant improvement has been the strikeout rate. His 25.2% strikeout rate last year was a career-low, and he's on pace to blow that out of the water with a 14.6% mark so far in 2026. The sample size has been large enough to suggest that he'll be able to maintain his offensive success over a full season. As a result, he's a very intriguing waiver wire target in fantasy baseball. As it stands, Jung is available in 57% of leagues, and he ranks as the #16 third baseman in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball rankings.
