Fantasy baseball sleepers and call ups

by Steve

Entering month three of the fantasy baseball season can make or break your squad. June is ripe for pwning the waiver wire and scooping up some talent. Here is a list of players (if still available) to take a flyer on.

Andrew McCutchen OF
You trade your best player, you might as well call up your next best player. A MCC has been a revelation since being called up last Thursday. Dude is raking, has speed, some power, and can drive in runs. GIVE HIM ToDAY

Matt Wieters Catcher
I assume he is gone in any league at this point but if you have been a sleep for the past two months get him ASAP. He has come out of the gate extremely slow but is too good to stay cold for long.

Sean West Pitcher
23 three year old potential stud for the Marlins. Earned his first career win in the bigs spinning a gem against the Giants on 6/8. In four starts his ERA is 2.22 and WHIP is .95. Should be available in most leagues.

Fernando Martinez OF
With Jose Reyes out for a while and the rest of the Mets farm team basically barren, F-Mart could stick longer than originally anticipated. He has speed and some power but may not be ready for the big leagues just yet.

Rick Porcello P
Super young RP, RP, has had two straight mundane starts for the Tigers but previously won his last five starts. His ERA is sub four and might be a solid spot starter if the league hasn't already figured him out.

Tommy Hanson
Long touted righty for the Braves was called up last week and is yet to make his MLB debut. He will be worth taking a gander at.

Luke Scott DH
Thirty year old journeyman has found his stroke for the O's. Since coming off the DL two weeks ago he has sustained an ability to hit in the majors and has blasted 7 dongs. Dude has power.

Nolan Reimold RF
Another young O's player (third already on this list) has hit decent since getting called up in mid may. .280 6hr 14 rbi. He could be a real asset if he gets his OBP up and continues his power trend that has been touted his entire young career.

Gordon Beckham SS
White sox potential stud just called up. He scorched his way through the farm system playing 7 games in AAA hitting .464 w/ an 1.127 OPS. (no sweatpants allowed)

Daniel Schlereth Closer
Alright, he got whacked around his first two outtings but if you're desperate for a closer w/ potential check 'em out. Yes he's Mark's kid.

Mark Adams Relief Pitcher
recently called up for the Padres. At leastPetco is a tough place to get hits in.

Jamie Burke Catcher
Seattle
