Zack Gelof is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for hitters heading into Week 20 (2023). Target Gelof as a free agent second baseman on the waiver wire.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Zack Gelof was called up on July 14 and immediately began mashing to begin his Major League career. In his first 17 Big League games, Gelof has five homers, five steals, and 20 runs-plus RBI while slugging a whopping .561. The 23-year-old is the third-ranked prospect in the Oakland farm system, and he's injected some life into the listless Athletics offense.

Better yet, Gelof's batted-ball metrics are outstanding early on in his career. He's making hard contact at a 48.8 percent rate, and his 91.9 average exit velocity would rank among the league leaders if he had enough at-bats to qualify. After tearing up Triple-A and getting off to such a hot start in the Majors, the only explanation for a highly-ranked prospect being this available in fantasy is... I got nothing. Just pick up Gelof.
