H2H Category Streamers - Week 25 Waiver Wire Pickups

Adalberto Mondesi Off Thursday

Kansas City Royals shortstop Adalberto Mondesi gets the day off on Thursday. It's his first time on the bench since returning from a shoulder injury on September 1 and there is no apparent setback, just a routine day. In his place is Nicky Lopez batting ninth, who can easily be ignored in DFS. In fact, […]

Ian Kennedy Nails Down 28th Save

Kansas City Royals closer Ian Kennedy has certainly found his new calling. Kennedy tossed a clean inning against the White Sox on Wednesday to lock down his 28th save of the season, and that gives him six saves and a win in his last seven appearances. Kennedy has only allowed more than one earned run […]

Ryan O'Hearn Heats Up

Kansas City Royals first baseman Ryan O'Hearn launched his second home run in two days on Wednesday against Chicago, and that now gives him three homers in his last eight games.

Dini's only hitting .200 so far, but he's got an on-base percentage that is approaching .300 and has had a knack for scoring runs, crossing the plate nine times in his […]
