Week 27 Waiver Wire Rankings: Michael King, Willi Castro, Evan Carter, Ryan O'Hearn, Junior Caminero, TJ Friedl, more

Willi Castro - fantasy baseball rankings draft sleepers prospects waiver wire pickups

Fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings for Week 27 of the 2023 MLB season. These are free agent options to add off waivers, and our rankings will help you prioritize.

RotoBallers, it's the final edition of Sunday's fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings for Week 27 -- September 25 through October 1. There is only one week left in the season, so let's finish strong and secure those fantasy baseball championships.

The Rays called up top third base prospect Junio Caminero, who made his debut on Saturday. The 20-year-old went 1-for-4 with a walk and a run scored in his big league debut. Top prospects such as Matt Mervis, Justyn-Henry Malloy, Coby Mayo, Kyle Manzardo, Robert Gasser, Austin Shenton, and Colt Keith patiently await the call to the big leagues.

Notable injury notes include Luis Robert Jr. (knee), Ketel Marte (illness), Luis Arraez (ankle), and Randy Arozarena (quadriceps) are considered day-to-day. Miami Marlins ace Sandy Alcantara (elbow, forearm) suffered a UCL sprain and will not pitch again this season. 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 Michael King, Willi Castro, Evan Carter, Ryan O'Hearn, Junior Caminero, Wilmer Flores, Zack Gelof, TJ Friedl, Jo Adell, Sawyer Gipson-Long, Austin Hays, Taj Bradley, Brendan Rodgers and where they rank, among others. Read more to see where these players rank in the waiver wire rankings for Week 26.
