As the MLB Trade Deadline approaches during the 2025 season, managing your fantasy baseball roster requires sharp attention to emerging talent and injury updates. This week’s waiver wire rankings highlight players like Nick Kurtz and Eury Perez, who are must-adds for any competitive team. Kurtz, with a 61% roster percentage, has shown he can produce consistently, while Perez's skills as a starting pitcher make him a valuable asset. Meanwhile, players like Spencer Arrighetti and Tyler Freeman are on hot streaks, making them essential picks for this week’s lineup. Monitor injuries closely, especially with Brandon Lowe's recent plantar fasciitis flare-up, as it could impact lineup decisions.
