Eric Cross' Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Adds: Hitters, Pitchers for Week 22 (2025) | Fantasy News
Week 22 waiver additions under 40% rostered surface a mix of immediate-IMPACT catchers, multi-position infielders, and useful starters. Basallo anchors the catcher spot with Adley Rutschman out, while Brooks Lee and Brett Baty have surged into prominent roles. Andujar, Bergert, and Schlittler bring steady upside on the mound. Veterans Abreu and Refsnyder provide veteran backfill, with last week’s names Frelick, Marte, Alexander, Simpson, Ortiz, McLean, Waldrep still in the mix as speculative adds.
Which rest-of-season waiver targets provide the best blend of upside and playing time for fantasy squads?How should you construct a playoff push strategy using the current waiver targets?What metrics should you monitor to gauge whether a waiver target is sustaining value through playoff weeks?Which waiver targets offer the best dynasty-like upside for keepers in the long term?
