Week 25 of 2025 centers on late-season waiver wire boosts for five categories: Runs, Home Runs, RBI, Stolen Bases, and Batting Average. The featured hitters bring multi-positional eligibility and hot streaks to the table, offering powerful sprint-to-points options for fantasy managers chasing a final push. Expect rostership shifts and pinch-ship opportunities as rosters tighten and playoff berths loom, with the emphasis on players delivering steady counting stats plus occasional speed.

Key pickups include Daylen Lile’s extended Nationals run, Bader and Marsh fueling Philadelphia’s late-season surge, Burger’s Rangers power, Sal Stewart and Kody Clemens offering versatility and pop, and Addison Barger’s continued two-way value. Add in Josh Bell, Patrick Bailey, Jose Caballero, Caleb Durbin, Mickey Moniak, and Gabriel Moreno for depth and upside across positions. The guide blends power, speed, and flexibility for those final daily lineups.

Two late slate MLB bets anchor Wednesday: Marlins at Rockies and Phillies at Dodgers, with a distinct tilt toward a steady Weathers on the road and a low scoring duel between Luzardo and Snell. The Marlins aim to grab a lead after five in Coors using Jakob Marsee’s hot plug against righties and a favorable rookie matchup for Weathers. In California, Snell faces Luzardo in a tight, bullpen-friendly contest where unders and outs prop are viable, and the Dodgers’ late threat looms.

The bets lean on a five-inning lead bet for Miami, a run threshold under the five inning mark, and a Marsee over two bases versus Brown. For the Dodgers, a F5 moneyline with under 6.5 runs and Snell outs prop creates a balanced, high-variance yet potentially recurring payout, reflecting a slate stacked with smart, pitcher-friendly angles and key bullpen implications.
