Ke'Bryan Hayes is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for hitters heading into Week 20 (2023). Target Hayes as a free agent third baseman on the waiver wire.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 36% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Ke'Bryan Hayes just returned from the injured list on August 1 after missing nearly the entirety of July, so a quick glance at his recent numbers will show they are less than ideal. However, before hitting the IL, the 26-year-old had a standout June, slashing .337/.337/.518 with a trio of homers and 13 RBI. Something Hayes struggles with is walking, though, having drawn just 16 free passes this season.

As the Pirates wait for Hayes to heat up and at least finish up his third year on a high note, even as the club heads for another losing season, they can at least take solace in the fact that he's an elite-level third baseman. Pair his stellar defense at the hot corner with another hot streak at the plate, and you have yourself an All-Star-caliber player, something Pittsburgh has been hoping for since Hayes' debut in 2020, although injuries have held him back from reaching his full potential.
