Addison Barger is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for Week 13 (2024). Target Addison Barger as a top prospect free-agent add for fantasy baseball.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 16+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 1% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Barger is getting his second opportunity with the Jays this season after being activated on Friday. He was up with the big league club earlier this season, but only for a short stint and appeared in just five games for Toronto.
Barger won't be an everyday starter for Toronto, but he does offer some versatility as he can play in the infield or outfield defensively. He started Saturday's game at third base for the Jays and went 1-for-3 at the dish with his first career RBI.

Barger was hitting .256 at Triple-A Buffalo with 36 runs scored and 34 RBI. He does draw a solid amount of walks and had a .380 OBP. If he can hit consistently, he could find his way into the lineup more often, but right now his glove is more valuable than his bat.
Without regular playing time, managers in all but the very deepest of formats can ignore Barger for now, but keep an eye on him as Toronto could end up going with a full youth movement at some point this season if they fall out of playoff contention.
