Week 17 Waiver Wire Rankings - Fantasy Baseball Pickups Include Luis Gil, Spencer Arrighetti, Noelvi Marte, Colt Keith, Tyler Freeman, Joe Boyle, Andrew Painter

Tyler Freeman - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, MLB Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings for Week 17 of the 2025 MLB season. These are free agent options to add off waivers, and our rankings will help you prioritize.

The second half of the 2025 MLB season began on Friday, and remarkably, it is already 20 days into July. With the MLB Trade Deadline approaching, some big names could be on the move as teams stockpile talent for that playoff push. At RotoBaller HQ, we are back with more fantasy baseball advice with our updated waiver wire ranking list of the top 100 hitters and pitchers for Week 17 of the MLB season -- July 21st - July 27th. Find out where key names such as Luis Gil, Spencer Arrighetti, Noelvi Marte, Colt Keith, Tyler Freeman, Joe Boyle, and Andrew Painter are listed in our updated waiver wire rankings. 

It is essential to stay on top of the player news as we guide you through injuries, prospect call-ups, recent hot streaks, and closer role changes. Astros right-hander Spencer Arrighetti pitched for Double-A Corpus Christ on Saturday and struck out four over three scoreless innings. The 25-year-old had been sidelined since early April with a fractured thumb. Colorado Rockies outfielder Tyler Freeman continues to swing a hot bat in July and is slashing .339/.373/.464 over his last 13 games. Key injury to monitor is Rays second baseman Brandon Lowe, who exited Saturday's game due to a flare-up of plantar fasciitis in his left foot

For those searching for injury replacements or whose teams need a boost, we have you covered with our latest fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings for various league sizes to help you prioritize your waiver wire decisions. Good luck on waivers this week, RotoBallers!
