Fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings for Week 6 of the 2025 MLB season. These are free agent options to add off waivers, and our rankings will help you prioritize.

The weather is warming up, and Week 6 of the MLB season has officially arrived. At RotoBaller HQ, we are back with more waiver wire advice and return with another edition of our waiver wire rankings. Today, we look at the best waiver wire pickups for Week 6 of the MLB season -- May 5th - May 11th. The list includes the top 100 hitters and pitchers to prioritize for this week. Find out where Kyle Stowers, Hyeseong Kim, Kevin Ginkel, Gunnar Hoglund, and Ranger Suarez are listed in our waiver wire rankings.

It is essential to stay on top of the player news as we guide you through the injuries, prospect call-ups, and closer role changes. More injuries to key players, such as Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Corbin Burnes, who will miss his next start due to right shoulder inflammation. The Dodgers promoted infielder Hyeseong Kim, who made his MLB debut as a defensive replacement against the Braves on Saturday. Miami Marlins outfielder Kyle Stowers continues to rake as he's homered four times in his last three games.

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!
