Week 25 Fantasy Baseball Hitter Streamers
I'll recommend only players who are 40% rostered or lower, and all roster percentages are from Yahoo! Today's group is all 30% rostered or lower. We are bargain bin hunting!
Jesse Winker, OF - NYM (30%)
We are going back to Winker this week. He struggled a bit this week but hit a grand slam on Wednesday against Boston. He's in the lineup daily, which matters a lot, and he shouldn't face any lefties against Toronto in the first series this week.
Jordan Walker, OF - STL (25%)
Walker is a guy that you just have to ignore his season-long stats because he was so bad earlier in the year that he's not likely to ever really improve them now with only a month left.
But he did hit two homers last week and had an impressive 5-5 game against the Yankees in which he swiped a bag, too. He obviously has the tools, he's just still trying to become a consistent MLB player. He's worth a shot for his upside.
Seth Brown, 1B/OF - OAK (23%)
Seth Brown is a guy who has done this kind of thing his whole career - get super hot and then go on a big streak, and then cool off for weeks at a time. So maybe adding him in the middle of a hot streak is asking for trouble, but no one is hitting the ball better than the Oakland lefty right now.

Brown's last two weeks have been incredible. He's hitting .386 with four home runs, 15 RBI and six runs scored. That's been good enough to put him in the top 20 in that span. I'd give him a shot this week, if he starts putting up 0-4 games again you can cut him just as quickly.
Jacob Young, OF - WAS (18%)
It's never that much fun rostering a number nine hitter, but Young is having a decent season and continues to be good enough that Washington wants him in the lineup every day.
He hits for very little power but has done a good job of getting on base this year so that he can use his speed. He's up to 31 steals on the season and is hitting .324 over the last two weeks. If you need steals, there's no one better on the wire to grab than Young.
Victor Robles, OF - SEA (18%)
Robles missed yesterday's game after he got hit on the elbow with a pitch on Friday, but he just has a day-to-day tag and shouldn't miss much time. He's been crushing it lately, hitting .424 over the last two weeks with eight RBI, ten runs scored, and five stolen bases.
Víctor Robles last 348 PA going back to 2023 Opening Day:
.284/.360/.390/.750
116 wRC+
30 Stolen Bases

We saw him be very productive earlier this season, and it looks like he's found his groove once again. He offers across-the-board production when he's feeling it like he is right now.
Brandon Marsh, OF - PHI (17%)
Marsh was on our list last week, and while he didn't leave the yard this week, he did pile up hits with seven hits in six starts going into today. You have to love the RBI potential for him, as he's hitting sixth or seventh most days behind a loaded top half of the order for a red-hot Phillies team.
Spencer Horwitz, 1B/2B - TOR (12%)
I may have dropped Horwitz off the list this week, BUT he just happened to hit two home runs yesterday in a 4-5 day at the plate against the Braves. This guy is very underrated, and I am still baffled by how lightly he's rostered, especially with second-base eligibility.
Dylan Moore, 2B/3B/SS/OF - SEA (10%)
The Mariners utility man is back in the picture after a couple of really solid weeks at the plate and on the basepaths. Moore has been hitting .320 over the last two weeks, scoring six runs and five stolen bases. The big caution here is that he won't start every day, but if you are in daily lineup leagues, you can use him against left-handed pitching with confidence.
Fantasy Baseball Deep League Hitter Streamers to Consider
Some widely available hitters (under 10% rostered) could be worth a look this week.
Ty France, 1B - CIN (10%)
Zach McKinstry, 2B/3B/SS/OF - DET (8%)
Nick Gonzales, 2B/SS - PIT (7%)
Santiago Espinal, 2B/3B/SS - CIN (7%)
Randal Grichuk, OF - ARI (6%)
Mickey Moniak, OF - LAA (6%)
Andrew Benintendi, OF - CHW (5%)
Garrett Mitchell, OF - MIL (4%)
Good luck this week, and choose those streaming options wisely!
