Andrew Knizner (C, STL) - Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 0% of leagues

ANALYSIS: St. Louis Cardinals catcher Andrew Knizner has had his best season to date with a slash of .333/.400/.444 at Triple-A after a strong showing to start the season at Double-A. In Springfield, he hit .305/.376/.424 with two homers in 31 games. While the numbers do not show the power upside, contact has always been his highest graded tool and there is no reason for it not to continue moving forward.

With the power jump that comes from any promotion to the majors, perhaps he can walk into 10+ bombs while keeping that average close to .300. If that is the case, all of a sudden he moves to a top fantasy catcher in a weak pool this season. The issue is that with Yadier Molina manning the plate in St. Louis it is hard to find playing time. At the same time, Knizner offers much more upside over fellow prospect Carson Kelly, and if there are injuries, he could be in line for a shot to play.

The other rumor with Knizner is a potential move off the plate, but even then, he should keep the catcher eligibility for the time being. It is wise to stash him in deeper leagues.
