Week 25 Waiver Wire Rankings: Nolan Jones, Ronny Mauricio, Evan Carter, Jordan Lawlar, J.P. Crawford, Tanner Scott, more

Nolan Jones - fantasy baseball rankings draft sleepers waiver wire pickups

Fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings for Week 25 of the 2023 MLB season. These are free agent options to add off waivers, and our rankings will help you prioritize.

Welcome back RotoBallers to another edition of the fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings for Week 25 -- September 11 through September 17. There are three weeks left in the regular season, and now is time to research and add players off the waiver wire that can help secure a fantasy title.

More top prospects are being called up to the big leagues, and some are producing for fantasy managers immediately. Last Friday, the Texas Rangers promoted top outfield prospect Evan Carter, while the Arizona Diamondbacks called up top infield prospect Jordan Lawlar. He went 1-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in his MLB debut. Top prospects such as Colt Keith, Justyn-Henry Malloy, Robert Gasser, Pete Crow-Armstrong, Matt Mervis, Austin Shenton, and Gavin Stone patiently await the call to the big leagues.

Notable injury notes include Luis Severino (oblique), who has been ruled out for the season after suffering a high-grade oblique strain during his previous start. Shohei Ohtani (oblique), Noelvi Marte (face), Ketel Marte (knee), Christian Yelich (back), Mookie Betts (foot), and Mickey Moniak (back) are considered day-to-day. Reinforcements are coming as Josh Jung (thumb) could return from the injured list by Friday, while Jonathan India and Joey Votto both began rehab assignments. The ball is flying out of the yard as offenses are heating up. We are here to help sort it all out with our latest waiver wire rankings article.

This week's waiver wire rankings feature players such as Nolan Jones, Ronny Mauricio, J.P. Crawford, Evan Carter, Anthony Volpe, Tanner Scott, Jordan Wicks, Tommy Pham, Taj Bradley, and Jordan Lawlar and where they rank, among others. Read more to see where these players rank in the waiver wire rankings for Week 25.

 

Week 25 Waiver Wire Roundup for Fantasy Baseball

Just like any other week, we have put together a full assortment of fantasy baseball waiver wire articles. You can see that full roundup below to help prepare you for Sunday night's waiver wire runs for leagues with weekly transactions.

For those who are not familiar, our team's fantasy baseball waiver wire articles get published on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays each week. First up is our closers and saves waiver wire report by David Marcillo, followed by our two-start pitcher streamers article by Pranav Uppalapati, and then the top hitter streamers by Dawn Tepper, released late each week to give you a head start on the week ahead.

For you premium subscribers, you get our overall waiver wire article, compliments of Nick Mariano. These will give you a solid overview of the waiver wire options. RotoBaller's resident points league guru Nick Gaut brings you his weekly points league pickups for hitters.

In addition to these articles, we also dig deeper for each position with individual waiver wire articles: starting pitcher pickups, outfield pickups, 2B and SS pickups, 1B and 3B pickups, deep fantasy hitter pickups, and players to consider dropping.

 

Who To Pickup for Fantasy Baseball Week 25?

Are you looking for a more direct and structured list of prioritized players to add off the waiver wire? This article is the final piece of the weekly waiver wire pickups series. Its goal is to show you our weekly ranking for the relevant waiver wire pickup options, including how to prioritize them for your league (depending on the league size).

Below, you will find the overall rankings list. Below that, each individual position is in priority order. Hopefully, this helps you win your wire this week!
