Week 25 Waiver Wire Rankings - Fantasy Baseball Pickups Include Bubba Chandler, Jose A. Ferrer, Daylen Lile, Jason Alexander, Connelly Early

Jose Ferrer - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Closers and Saves, Bullpen Report

Fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings for Week 25 of the 2025 MLB season. These are free agent options to add off waivers, and our rankings will help you prioritize.

With only two weeks left in the MLB season, it's time to sort through the waiver wire and add players that could help you in that coveted fantasy baseball championship. At RotoBaller HQ, we updated our top 100 hitter and pitcher list for Week 25 of the MLB season -- September 15th - September 21st to help you navigate the waiver wire. Find out where key pickups that can help you down the stretch, such as Bubba Chandler, Andrew Kittredge, Jose A. Ferrer, Daylen Lile, Jason Alexander, and Connelly Early, are listed in our top 100 waiver wire list.

We are approaching the final stretch of the season, and it's time to make the move to cut the disappointing player and either take a chance on a top prospect or add a player on a hit streak. Houston Astros pitcher Jason Alexander has been lights out recently, posting a 2.20 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, and 35 strikeouts over 41 innings. The Red Sox promoted pitcher Connelly Early earlier this week, and he struck out 11 batters over five scoreless innings against the Athletics in his MLB debut. Washington Nationals closer Jose A. Ferrer has racked up five saves in September. 

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. It is also essential to stay on top of the fantasy baseball player news as we guide you through injuries, prospect call-ups, recent hot streaks, and closer role changes. Good luck on waivers this week, RotoBallers!
