Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups Week 7 featuring Jackson Holliday and Tony Gonsolin

With yet another exciting week in the rearview, the fantasy baseball waiver wire is loaded with a number of intriguing players who could make an impact in both the short and long term. There are a number of different ways that managers can gain an edge over their opponents; however, finding the right player on the waiver wire at the right time is one of the most effective.

Heading into Week 7, the fantasy baseball waiver wire has no shortage of players who have been tearing it up at the plate and on the mound. There is no guarantee that any of these players will be viable options for the entire season; however, they are certainly worth adding in fantasy leagues right now.

Here's a closer look at some of the most interesting names widely avaiable on the fantasy baseball waiver wire

#1 - Jackson Holliday

Jackson Holliday is only in his second MLB season; however, he might be a name that some fantasy managers are already getting tired of. Still, the Baltimore Orioles infielder has been heating up at the plate lately, smashing a pair of homers Sunday against the Kansas City Royals.

Holliday has been inconsistent throughout his career, but do you really want to miss out on the breakout?

#2 - Kyle Stowers

Miami Marlins outfielder Kyle Stowers has been tearing the cover off the ball lately. The 27-year-old has clobbered four home runs in his last five games, bringing his season totals to a .310 batting average with six home runs, 25 RBIs and a pair of stolen bases.

Stowers could be the perfect target on fantasy baseball waiver wires, especially for managers needing to replace injured stars like Yordan Alvarez.

#3 - Tony Gonsolin

The LA Dodgers are arguably the best team in Major League Baseball; however, they’ve had to overcome their fair share of injuries early this season. While the team is without Tyler Glasnow and Blake Snell, veteran Tony Gonsolin has returned from a lengthy absence, impressing in his first outing.

Gonsolin is one of the top pitching names to add off the fantasy baseball waiver wire.

#4 - Lucas Giolito

Another veteran who recently returned from injury is Lucas Giolito. While Giolito might not have the overall upside of Gonsolin, he racked up seven strikeouts in his season debut.

The Boston Red Sox have needed more pitching depth, and Giolito’s return might not only help the club but also fantasy managers willing to gamble on the veteran.
