Tyler Black is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for Week 6 (2024). Target Tyler Black as a top prospect free-agent add for fantasy baseball.
PROSPECT: Tyler Black, 1B/3B, Milwaukee Brewers
ERIC CROSS' LATEST PROSPECT RANKING: #9
CALL-UP ETA: May
ANALYSIS: After four home runs in the last 10 days, Tyler Black is now up to five in 25 games this season with a trio of steals and a solid .303/.393/.525 slash line. This coming after a season where he posted a .417 OBP, 55 extra-base hits, 18 home runs, and 55 stolen bases. Black has also shifted from third base to first base this season, giving him a much easier path to playing time in Milwaukee.
Tyler Black had 2 HR yesterday and is now up to 5 HR, 3 SB, and a .303/.393/.525 line in 117 PA.
He's also shifted to 1B this season. I'm expecting him up within the next 2-3 weeks.#ThisIsMyCrew pic.twitter.com/yOyOkS2MVm

The Brewers have been starting a combination of Jakes Bauers, Owen Miller, and Rhys Hoskins at first base this season, but could easily slot Hoskins into the DH spot full-time to make room for Black. And while Black probably isn't more than a 15-20 homer bat, he can provide plenty of steals from the first base position with a respectable AVG and impactful OBP.
