Jake Mangum

Consistent leadoff presence for Pittsburgh delivering real counting stats. No power ceiling to speak of, but the contact skills and speed are reliable. Particularly valuable in OBP and steals-heavy formats.

Locked into the Pirates leadoff spot with Konnor Griffin shelved until early September. He won't hurt your average and will keep running. Meaningful in 14+ team formats, especially if steals are tight.

Mangum is filling in for the injured Oneil Cruz and making the most of it — .347 average with seven stolen bases over his last 26 contests. This is a pure AVG/speed contributor with no significant power, but if your team is bleeding stolen bases, he is the cleanest pickup on the wire right now at only 14% owned.
