Dominic Fletcher is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for hitters heading into Week 9 (2023). Target Fletcher as a free agent outfielder on the waiver wire.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 19% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Dominic Fletcher was highlighted here last week, and his ownership has tripled in the time since. His short service in the majors has certainly left an impression. Fletcher is slashing .356/.397/.576 with two home runs, five doubles, and a triple through 17 games played. He's quickly ascended from pedestrian prospect to everyday player.

As a full disclosure, Fletcher's minor-league track record and his early advanced metrics tell us to expect some negative regression. He slugged .559 through 22 games with Triple-A Reno this year, but prior to that, he never demonstrated more than slightly above-average power. That's not to say Fletcher won't be a productive hitter, though it would be a surprise to see him slugging above .500 by the season's end. In any event, the results are encouraging, and rostering Fletcher is worthwhile, even if only to ride out his hot streak.
