Mid-Week Waiver Wire Rankings - Fantasy Baseball Pickups: Spencer Horwitz, Spencer Arrighetti, Luke Weaver, Jose Tena, Kumar Rocker

Spencer Horwitz - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, MLB Prospects News

The MLB season is rapidly coming to an end. There are only 11 days left in the regular season, and the time is ticking to add players that could help bolster your team for the championship run. We have worked hard all season preparing you for this moment. It's time to secure those fantasy baseball championships! Good luck, RotoBallers! We are back with another edition of our mid-week waiver rankings for Week 26 -- September 16 through September 22 -- to help you stay on top of the waiver wire, especially in leagues that allow daily moves.

Most top prospects have been called up by now, and there's no time left to stash with just over a week left in the season. Some notable recent performances include Toronto Blue Jays infielder Spencer Horwitz, who is slashing .387/.459/.806 with three home runs, seven RBI, seven runs, and four walks over his last 10 games. Houston Astros right-hander Spencer Arrighetti owns a 2.82 ERA, 1.21 WHIP, and a 57: 15 K: BB over his last 44 2/3 innings in his previous eight starts.

This edition features Spencer Horwitz, Spencer Arrighetti, Kerry Carpenter, Kumar Rocker, Hunter Goodman, Victor Robles, Jose Tena, Michael Kopech, and Luke Weaver. We're here, as always, to help you stay on top of the latest waiver-wire options, especially in leagues that allow for daily moves. Prospects who are making impacts continue to be called up, so you'll need to be informed. Stay on top of our weekly waiver wire rankings and turn on MLB news alerts to stay ahead of the curve. Once you're done here, check out our fantasy baseball prospects articles for the latest names to stash and pick up.

Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups List

For anyone unfamiliar, we release all sorts of fantasy baseball waiver wire articles every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. As part of that, Nick Mariano releases our waiver wire rankings list on Sundays to help you prioritize which players to target as free-agent adds off waivers.

In addition, we are also putting out a second waiver wire rankings list mid-week. Since many fantasy baseball leagues have daily waiver-wire moves or multiple waiver-wire runs per week for adding players, this mid-week rankings list should help you keep track of players emerging in the middle of the week before we reach Sunday.

This article will guide you through our weekly ranking of the relevant waiver-wire pickup options, including how to prioritize them for your league (depending on the league size). The roster percentage is from Yahoo! leagues.
