Jung Hoo Lee a Priority Waiver Wire Target Amidst Hot Streak
Across 297 plate appearances in 2026, San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee is hitting .327/.360/.471 with five home runs, 30 RBI, 41 runs scored, and five stolen bases. The 27-year-old does an excellent job of limiting swing-and-miss, as he's struck out in just 9.1% of his trips to the plate this season. Lee's .345 batting average on balls in play this season is well above his career mark of .304, so he may be in line for some batting average regression in the second half of the year. Still, Lee's ability to consistently make contact keeps his floor in the category high. Lee has also started to reach a bit more power in June, posting a .560 slugging percentage with 11 RBI across 89 plate appearances this month. Fantasy managers should not expect anything more than modest production in the power and speed departments from Lee, but he can be relied upon as a batting average and runs asset. In leagues where Lee is available on the waiver wire, he is a worthy target for fantasy managers.
