Welcome back RotoBallers to our fantasy baseball waiver wire rankings for Week 13 -- June 19 through June 25. The MLB All-Star break is a few weeks away, and now is the time to start searching the waiver wire for players who can instantly help your fantasy teams as we move closer to the second half of the season. More top prospects are being called up to the big leagues, and some are producing for fantasy managers immediately. Bo Naylor, Emmet Sheehan, Luis Matos, and Samad Taylor were recently promoted. Jordan Westburg, Christian Encarnacion-Strand, Colton Cowser, Sal Frelick, Ronny Mauricio, Dominic Fletcher, and David Hamilton continue to rake in the minors. At the same time, Gavin Williams and Ben Brown have pitched well and are patiently waiting for a promotion to the majors.
Fantasy managers might have some injured stars return soon, such as New York Yankees left-hander Carlos Rodon (elbow, back), who was cleared for a rehab assignment and is set to start Tuesday with Double-A Somerset. In contrast, Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Julio Urias (hamstring), Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Brandon Woodruff (shoulder), and Detroit Tigers southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez (finger) recently threw bullpen sessions. Notable injury notes include Sean Murphy (hamstring), Tim Anderson (shoulder), Chris Taylor (knee), and Anthony Rendon (wrist) being considered day-to-day. Triston McKenzie (elbow), Wilmer Flores (foot), Edward Cabrera (shoulder), Jean Segura (hamstring), and Patrick Wisdom (wrist) were all placed on the injured list. The ball is flying out of the yard as offenses are heating up. We are here to help sort it all out with our latest waiver wire rankings article.
This week's waiver wire rankings feature players such as Emmet Sheehan, Gavin Williams, Samad Taylor, Luis Matos, Bo Naylor, Andrew Abbott, Kendall Graveman, Jordan Hicks, Nick Pratto, Adbert Alzolay, Jesus Sanchez, Bryan Woo, Christian Encarnacion-Strand, James Paxton, Luke Raley, Royce Lewis, Joey Wiemer, and where they rank, among others.
