Top Hitter Streamers and Starts for Fantasy Baseball - Week 25

Gunnar Henderson - Fantasy Baseball Rankings, MLB Prospects, Draft Sleepers

Fantasy baseball hitter streamers and starts for Week 25 Hitters to add from the waiver wire and stream. Justin analyzes the top batter streamers to pick up.

This is it, the final week. We have one more week of fantasy baseball ahead of us. There is no more time for making wrong decisions, they must all be perfect from here on, if you're still playing the game - which I assume you are since I have your attention here.

I quite enjoyed writing this piece over the last several weeks of the season, and who knows - maybe I'll even be with you all year long next year. Let's get into it, we will highlight the best hitter streamers for the season's final week, September 26 through October 2.

As always, check out the rest of our fantasy baseball streamers content after you read this piece! Here we goooooo!

Be sure to check all of our fantasy baseball lineup tools and resources:

 

What Teams Offer The Most Streaming Value?

There are four teams playing seven games from 9/26 to 10/2. They are:

  • Washington Nationals
  • Baltimore Orioles
  • Boston Red Sox
  • Philadelphia Phillies

I'll give you the probable pitcher matchups for all of those teams here.

Nationals

Orioles

Red Sox

Phillies

A pretty tough week for the Nationals there, but some good schedules for the other three teams there.

We have NO GAMES in Coors or Great American Ballpark, by the way, so we're really going to be focused here on Baltimore, Boston, and Philadelphia.

 

This Week's Streamers

Gunnar Henderson, Baltimore Orioles (47% Rostered)

I imagine that there's not much overlap between the leagues that don't roster Henderson and leagues with readers of this website, so this might be a moot point for most readers since you've probably not missed Henderson so far. However, if he is somehow available – go get him now. He's hitting .324/.367/.554 with a 10.3% Brl% and a 20.3% K% in his first 79 plate appearances in the Majors. That is some really impressive stuff, and the schedule couldn't be much better for him and his teammates as we close out the year.

Joey Meneses, Washington Nationals (50% Rostered)

Another guy that is hardly qualifying for this post here, but to me, he's a little bit more likely to be available than Henderson. Again, the Nationals face some tough pitchers next week, but they play every day – and Meneses' pop is for real. He has a 25% K% and an 11% Brl% over the last two weeks, and a solid .563 SLG for the year. He can power a couple out of the park next year, but you shouldn't expect a great batting average.

Ramon Urias, Baltimore Orioles (20% Rostered)

The .240/.295/.396 line is far from great, but Urias has hit 15 homers with a solid 22% K% this year. He has shown some upside, and the Orioles have some really, really attractive matchups next week.

Enrique Hernandez, Boston Red Sox (50% Rostered)

This is another guy that is less likely to be available in your league, but Hernandez is back and racking up some counting stats. He has hit a decent .253 with two homers over his last 100 plate appearances and has been in the Red Sox lineup most days. The position eligibility is nice as always, and there should be plenty of runs and RBI to go around for Boston next week.

Garrett Cooper, Miami Marlins (12% Rostered)

When Cooper is healthy, he is great at the dish. He has a .279/.333/.508 slash line over the last three weeks after returning from some injuries. He's hit just two homers, but it's buoyed by a 15% Brl% and a low 21% K%. He's always been a good on-base guy, so that's a boost if you're in that kind of league.

Carlos Santana, Seattle Mariners (5% Rostered)

We have to get away from those targeted seven-game teams because we have just run out of names that play every day and are below 50% rostered. Slamtana is back, at least temporarily, with a .762 SLG over his last 44 plate appearances. He has a 23% Brl% during that time and is walking less than ever (4.5%), which is actually a good thing for our purposes with him. The M's are in the playoff picture, so they should be starting their best players all week long – and that's good for Santana.

Rodolfo Castro, Pittsburgh Pirates (8% Rostered)

This kid has hit .268/.320/.556 since August 1, while hitting 10 homers and stealing three bags. Given the nature of the players around him, he has scored just 16 runs and driven in 20, which are pretty astounding numbers given the 10 homers – but Rodolfo can get you some pop and some steals next week even in the six-game week.

Nick Gordon, Minnesota Twins (21% Rostered)

Gordon has slugged .583 over the last two weeks and for the year his .280/.322/.449 slash line is better than you'd expect from someone this low-owned. His 10.3% Brl% is strong, and the 24% K% is solid enough. He can steal some bags, and the .334 xwOBA is evidence that he truly is hitting the ball well this year. Add Gordon with confidence.

 

And that will do it. It's been a great year for me to write for all of you, and I'm really appreciative of the readership and the feedback. We will see you next year, RotoBallers!
