It's Time to Add Hunter Goodman and Heliot Ramos off the Waiver Wire in All Fantasy Baseball Leagues

It's time for another round of fantasy baseball waiver wire stories.

After a combined hitter and pitcher story yesterday, let's split them up today. We'll cover hitters here, and pitchers later on.

Check out the top fantasy baseball waiver wire options everyday on FantasySP. 

Should You Add Hunter Goodman?

Goodman is up 3.38% today, bringing his overall mark to 66.67%. Goodman continues to deliver at the plate, so it makes sense to see his own percentage keep rising.

Goodman has now played in 39 games, and he has 157 plate appearances so far. He's got a .294 batting average and .350 on-base percentage. Goodman has nine doubles, six homers and a triple among his 42 total knocks, along with 24 RBIs, 22 runs scored, 10 walks and 34 strikeouts

Goodman is the No. 5 overall fantasy catcher to this point in the season. You might think Goodman's own percentage is high, but looking at his overall standing actually probably says he's undervalued, and not owned in enough leagues.

He's been hot of late too, with five hits over his past two games - he's also on a five-game hitting streak. Over that streak, Goodman has 10 total knocks, including four doubles, a triple and a homer. The catcher also has six RBIs and runs scored, no walks and just three strikeouts in that span.

Goodman should already be rostered in all deeper redraft leagues, and he's likely to remain a season-long asset in those leagues. At worst, he's a good backup option because he plays a lot and hits in a friendly home ballpark.

I think Goodman is worth an add in standard redraft leagues too. He's performing as a daily starter in all formats, and at a fantasy position that's tough to find consistent production in, Goodman is worth an add in all leagues really.

Add him and utilize him until he cools off at the plate at the very least.

Should You Add Jake Burger?

Burger was added back in 2.02% of leagues. He's at 37.88% overall now.

He was optioned to the minor leagues at the beginning of May, but he was just called back up on Monday. Burger had a single and strikeout across his three at-bats in his first game back in the big leagues.

Burger's season-long numbers were not good - which is why he was sent down, of course. In 31 games and 111 plate appearances total, he has a .194 average and .234 OBP. Burger has five doubles and three homers among his 20 total knocks, along with 12 RBIs, 13 runs scored, three walks and 33 strikeouts.

He batted seventh and started at first base in his return to the big leagues. Burger should have third base eligibility from last season, so that makes him a touch more valuable for fantasy purposes.

Burger has been a solid fantasy asset in the past. He is a career .246 hitter with a .300 OBP. His fantasy value comes from his power and run production. Burger has 75 homers, 197 RBIs and 177 runs scored over 375 career games.

There's reason to expect Burger to bounce back from his early-season struggles moving forward. His demotion to the minor leagues was a wake-up call, and hopefully he gets going at the plate now.

Now that he's back in the big leagues, Burger is a solid deep-league redraft asset. He's more of a stash option than someone to add and play immediately, unless you are desperate for help at a corner infield spot.

Burger is worth keeping tabs on in standard leagues too. He's delivered in the past and could get back to that level of play at some point. If he starts heating up, his own percentage should rise pretty quickly, so be ready to pounce.

Should You Add Gavin Sheets?

Sheets has pretty quietly had a really nice fantasy season. He's up to 23.99% rostered after a 2.53% increase today.

Sheets has a .302 average and .354 OBP across 37 games and 127 plate appearances. He has seven doubles and five home runs among his 35 total knocks. Sheets also has posted 21 RBIs, a stolen base, 15 runs scored, nine walks and 32 strikeouts.

He's been hot of late too, with eight hits over an ongoing four-game hitting streak. Sheets has three doubles and a homer among those hits. He also has seven RBIs, three runs scored, no walks and just three strikeouts.

Sheets has played first base and left field at times this season, but is most often serving as the Padres' designated hitter. It's a great lineup to be a part of for a fantasy hitter, and although he's hitting sixth or seventh most days, Sheets is in a great spot to be a fantasy asset.

Being a left-handed hitter, many expected Sheets to only start against righties. He's made starts against lefties too of late, so his fantasy outlook is looking really strong.

I'm not sure why Sheets is only owned in as many leagues as he is. He has great season-long numbers, is part of a great lineup and is hot of late. He deserves to be rostered in a lot more leagues, even if it's only temporarily.

I'd say Sheets is close to being a must-add in deeper redraft leagues. He should remain a pretty solid asset in those leagues all season, especially if he hangs on to his everyday role.

Sheets should really be garnering some standard league attention right now, but that could come in short order if fantasy owners start to dive into Sheets' numbers and value. Keep an eye on him in those leagues if you aren't ready to add him quite yet.

Should You Add Heliot Ramos?

Ramos has been red hot at the plate over the past several games, and it's made his season-long numbers really strong all of a sudden. He's up 2.52% and he's now owned in 73.23% of leagues overall.

Ramos has eight hits over his past three games, and has racked up 13 knocks over his past six contests and 25 plate appearances. He has two homers and three doubles among those hits, along with seven RBIs, two walks, four runs scored and just one strikeout.

For the full season, Ramos has a .290 average and .356 OBP across 41 games and 174 plate appearances. He has 10 doubles and seven homers among his 45 total knocks. Ramos has added 19 RBIs, three stolen bases, 13 walks, 28 runs scored and 40 strikeouts.

He's played left field this season, but could also be eligible in center or right field from past years (if your league distinguishes between the outfield spots). Most importantly, Ramos is in the Giants' lineup daily - he usually hits fifth or sixth, but was bumped up to third last night.

If Ramos sticks in that No. 3 batting spot, his fantasy outlook is going to go up. He's already red hot at the plate, and he's maybe worth streaming in all leagues given where he batted in the order on Monday. 

Ramos already should be rostered in all deeper redraft leagues. I think he's more than worthy of a roster spot and starts in standard redraft leagues though. I know the fantasy outfield position is stocked full of options, but he's a top-50 hitter overall on the season, which is more than deserving of a standard league spot.

Add Ramos now and take advantage of him while he's scorching hot at the plate. He had a .269 average and .322 OBP across 121 games and 518 plate appearances last year (his first full year in the big leagues), so there's a chance he repeats those marks, or improves upon them and sticks around his season-long marks.
