Kyle Bishop profiles Brewers RP Jeremy Jeffress as a waiver wire pickup and add in Week 3 of the 2019 MLB season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues
OWNED IN: 35% of leagues
ANALYSIS: Jeremy Jeffress is expected to be activated from the injured list prior to Monday's game against the Cardinals. While he will likely be eased back into action, the veteran figures to see some save chances once he's up to speed. It's true that Josh Hader has picked up right where he left off last season, but the Brewers would probably prefer to keep using him in the fireman role rather than as their primary closer.
Enter Jeffress, who had a pretty fantastic 2018 in his own right, posting sparkling ratios (1.29 ERA, 0.99 WHIP) and racking up 89 strikeouts in 76.2 innings while saving 15 games. If he's not already rostered in your league - and that's true of nearly two-thirds of the Yahoo landscape - you should strongly consider changing that.
