MacKenzie Gore is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for pitchers heading into Week 2 (2024). Target Gore as a free agent pitcher on the waiver wire.
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 42% of leagues
ANALYSIS: It feels like we have been waiting for Gore to grow into an opportunity at the MLB level, and with health, he's an interesting addition to your staff. Gore makes his first start on Monday against the Pittsburgh Pirates and then gets the Philadelphia Phillies next weekend.

Gore is just 25 and looks to grow this season with health and a full opportunity in Washington. He raised his K% two ticks last year to 25.9%, and cut his walk rate to 9.8%, which is still too high. Gore surrendered 27 home runs in 136 innings in 2023. Our point? Improvement in both the walk and home run rates could lead to a growth year for Gore, and we're willing to take that chance on a talented lefty with a great opportunity. Gore is on the cusp of excellence with his Whiff % and K%. This represents a chance for you to buy in now.
