Waiver Wire

  • Jun 5, 2026·Issue #048·38% owned

    Called up to fill Munetaka Murakami's roster spot and immediately handed the everyday DH/INF role. In 238 Triple-A plate appearances he posted 19 HR, 8 SB, a 33:49 BB:K ratio, and 113.6 mph max exit velocity. The role is secure and the tools are legitimate. Priority add in 10-team leagues and up.

    Called up May 30 to replace Munetaka Murakami and handed an everyday starting role. The second-best OPS among all minor leaguers with 200+ PA this season — .308/.414/.646 with 18 HR across 54 games at Charlotte. He's 22 years old, plays SS, and faces weak rotation pitching daily on a rebuilding White Sox squad. At 5% owned, he should be an immediate add in every league down to 10 teams.

    The 23-year-old (No. 58 overall prospect per MLB Pipeline) was promoted to replace Murakami and is stepping directly into an everyday lineup spot on a team with genuine postseason aspirations. Do not overthink this — add him everywhere before Tuesday's wire clears.

Stash of the Week

    The White Sox called him up May 30 to replace Munetaka Murakami (hamstring, 4-6 weeks), and he immediately stepped into an everyday starting role. Gonzalez posted an .308/.414/.646 slash with 18 HR across 54 Triple-A games — the second-best OPS among all minor leaguers with 200+ plate appearances this season. He's 22, plays a premium defensive position (SS), and won't need to fight for at-bats. With Murakami's injury now confirmed as a Grade 2 strain with a PRP injection, there's no rush to bring him back. Add Gonzalez everywhere, including 10-team leagues.
