Michael Griffin's catcher (C) fantasy baseball waiver wire adds. Pickups and catcher sleepers for Week 6 of the 2016 MLB season.

It's hard to believe that this is the sixth week of the baseball season. It seems like I had just started doing this column and I'm already halfway to a dozen of these. Many of the catchers out there also wish that they had more time - it hasn't been a great start for any of them. No one has cracked double-digits in homers and the high water mark for RBIs was 19. Even the big names like Buster Posey have struggled. There's still plenty of time for them to turn it around, but they better hurry since the All-Star Game will be here before you know it.

There's also plenty of time for you to grab some catchers off the fantasy baseball waiver wire who will help you in one or two-catcher leagues. Our cut-off is below 50% ownership in Fleaflicker.

Week 6 Waiver Wire Catchers

Welington Castillo (ARI) 38% - I had to stop and squint at this one. No, I don't need glasses... I was just flabbergasted that comparatively few people wanted to have a catcher with a .314 average and the most RBIs for the position on their roster. It seems like having someone like that on their roster could only do good for them. Perhaps people are searching for "Wellington Castillo" and not finding him. Remember, there's only one 'l' in Welington.

Francisco Cervelli (PIT) 37% - My protest continues. Get Francisco to 40%, folks. Yes, he's fallen off a bit at .296 but it's a long season of ups and downs. He'll be more up than down and a lot of fantasy owners may be feeling a bit foolish when they find him on the wire later on and wonder why they didn't pick him up sooner.

Wilson Ramos (WAS) 29% - This is another puzzler. Why do so few fantasy players want to have a catcher who has a batting average like 1990's Mike Piazza in their lineup? He's hitting .364 with three homers. That would definitely merit a place on my roster. Unless you have a catcher like Buster Posey, you're missing out here. Grab him.

J.T. Realmuto (MIA) 29% - Look, Realmuto's got to be embarrassed enough after that whole "long single" fiasco the other day - finding out that not even a third of fantasy players have him on their roster? That's going to hurt deep in his soul. Though hitting .302 and being tied for fourth in hits among all backstops? That'll soothe him some. Help yourself by making him a No. 2 catcher, at least.

Yan Gomes (CLE) 22% - This is the prime case of the "It's Still Early" way of thinking. It's true - Gomes is hitting a horrible .158 and going 0-7 on Wednesday really didn't help him. There's no denying that. But he's also very much in the thick of the catching pack with 13 RBIs. It can't hurt to have him since he's going to bounce back. When you're hitting .158, you have to bounce back. Benefit from that when it happens. He'll be a No.2 backstop for you, so take the plunge.

Curt Casali (TB) 2% - OK. Wait. Wait. Hear me out. I'm not insane. Yes, his .191 average is below the Mendoza line, but he's got 10 RBIs. That means he, like Gomes, makes every one of his hits count. Wouldn't you love a No. 2 catcher that could give you 70 RBIs or more? You're not going to find someone who can fill out all the lines of a stat sheet with this thin catching ranks. Getting him will help you in one area, which is more than you can say about some of these other pickings.
