Ronny Mauricio a Sneaky Power Bat Available on the Waiver Wire
New York Mets infielder Ronny Mauricio is a name to consider on the waiver wire this week as the Mets recently called up their former top prospect when Francisco Lindor (calf) went on the injured list. Mauricio was hitting .293 at Triple-A and was already up to six home runs and five steals this season in just 15 games. The steals aren't something fantasy managers should expect in the majors, but he could be a sneaky source of power while filling in at shortstop. The 6-foot-3 Dominican hit six home runs last season with the Mets in only 61 games, and was the owner of the 10th-hardest hit ball in the majors at 117.3 mph back in 2023, the year he debuted. The switch-hitter is 3-for-6 in his last two games, is eligible at both 2B and 3B in Yahoo! leagues, and should soon gain eligibility at SS.
