Austin Hays is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for Week 26 of the 2021 MLB season. Consider adding the OF if he's free agent in your leagues.
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 45% of leagues
ANALYSIS: Austin Hays has been a bright spot for the Orioles as they play out the string of their third 100-loss season in four years. Since the calendar flipped to September, the 26-year-old has hit a blistering .289/.349/.645 with seven home runs, 30 R+BI, and a stolen base. He's hit safely in eight straight games, cranking three homers and driving in nine runs in that span.
Along with Cedric Mullins and Anthony Santander, Hays gives the Orioles a solid outfield. Now they just need, uh, pretty much everything else. If you're still reading about fantasy baseball in the final two weeks of the season, odds are your roster is in a much better position, but there's always room for improvement - and Hays remains available in a majority of leagues.
