Weekly Fantasy Baseball Projections: Top Waiver Targets & Streamers
Identifying some short-term adds and streaming options based on weekly projections and matchups.
A new week is here, so it's time to go over some weekly fantasy baseball projections and help you identify some waiver wire/streaming options.
We have several players to get to, so let's dive right in!
Weekly fantasy baseball projections can be found on FantasySP all season! Daily projections are also available!
Hitters
Carlos Correa - Houston Astros
Correa is owned in about 76% of fantasy baseball leagues right now. He is projected for a big week at the plate, and has seven games he could play in.
He's played in 13 games and logged 57 plate appearances on the season. Correa has a .294 average and .368 on-base percentage, plus nine RBIs, 12 runs scored, a stolen base, six walks and seven strikeouts. Correa has three doubles and a home run among his 15 knocks.
Correa is off to a great start in 2026, and seems a bit underowned to me. He's eligible at shortstop and third base, so he can help in those spots, or as an additional infield or utility guy. He did miss a couple games, which has his own percentage a little lower than it should be.
Take advantage of Correa while his bat is hot, and get him on your roster/in your lineup for the time being. He's worth utilizing in all league types, at least until he cools off significantly.
Angel Martinez - Cleveland Guardians
Martinez has seven games as well this week. He is only owned in 25% of leagues right now though.
Martinez has a .310 average and .383 OBP over 14 games and 48 plate appearances. He has three doubles and a home run among his 13 knocks, plus six RBIs, seven runs scored, four stolen bases, three walks and six strikeouts.
The primary outfielder could also be eligible at second base, which would be a nice boost to his fantasy value. See if he's available to slot in at 2B, and give him an add if you need help there, or in your outfield.
He might be a better deep-league asset in the long run, but for a short stretch, Martinez could be worth streaming in standard leagues. Utilize him until his production slows.
Cam Smith - Houston Astros
Of course, Smith has seven games as well that he could play in this week. He is rostered in 74% of leagues.
Smith has produced a .286 average and .375 OBP over 16 contests and 64 plate appearances. He has four doubles and three homers among his 16 total knocks, plus eight RBIs, 10 runs scored, three stolen bases, seven walks and 16 strikeouts.
The high strikeout total is really the only number I don't like amongst all those stats. The outfielder is hurt by having so many other fantasy outfielders around, but he's producing enough to own/utilize in more leagues.
He needs to be owned/utilized in deeper leagues, and I also think he deserves to be picked up and used in most standard leagues. Look over your options in the outfield and see if Smith might be worth adding over someone else.
Josh Bell - Minnesota Twins
Bell sits at just 44% rostered at this time. He has six games he could play in this week.
He has delivered a .275 average and .387 OBP over 16 games and 63 plate appearances in the early going. Bell has four doubles and three homers to his name, plus 12 RBIs, 14 runs scored, 10 walks and 17 strikeouts.
Again, the strikeouts are the only noticeable negative in Bell's numbers so far. His fantasy outlook is hindered a bit by him being a first baseman, another loaded fantasy spot.
He's still worth adding/utilizing in more leagues right now. At least stream him until his bat cools off a bit.
Luis Garcia Jr. - Washington Nationals
Garcia and the Nationals are scheduled to play seven contests this week. He is rostered in 49% of fantasy leagues.
Garcia has a .271 average and .286 OBP over 14 contests and 49 plate appearances. He has three doubles, a triple and a homer amongst his 13 total hits, plus eight RBIs, seven runs scored, a walk and five strikeouts.
There's a lot to like in those numbers, but pay close attention to the games played and plate appearances. While he's playing enough for deep-league usage, him not starting or playing full games holds him back from full usage in standard leagues.
I really only like utilizing him in deeper leagues, but him being eligible at first or second base means that he's got more value, and could sneak into standard leagues. I think he's just a short-term option in those leagues though.
Mauricio Dubon - Atlanta Braves
Dubon is owned in 70% of leagues at this moment. He could play up to six games as well.
Dubon is another versatile defender, and could be eligible to play at any infield (minus catcher) or outfield position. See where he's available - the more, the better.
He has a .351 average and .373 OBP over 15 games and 59 plate appearances, which is really why he's a good fantasy asset. Dubon has six doubles and two homers among his 20 knocks, plus 11 RBIs, 10 runs scored, two walks and nine strikeouts.
Dubon won't stick as this kind of fantasy asset all season, so add and stream him until his numbers drop. He's worth utilizing in all deeper leagues, and some more standard leagues for the time being.
Pitchers
Jeffrey Springs - Athletics
Springs is scheduled to make two starts this week, and is rostered in 54% of leagues. He's set to make starts against the Rangers and White Sox, which are pretty solid matchups, but it's what he's done this season that is enticing to fantasy owners.
He's made three starts this season, and hasn't allowed more than two runs in any outing. Springs is 2-0 with a 1.47 earned run average over 18 1/3 innings. He's allowed three runs on eight hits and six walks, while striking out 15 batters.
Those are stellar numbers, and show that he might be in store for a bounceback season, after a rough go of things in 2025. Springs is worth adding and holding until his numbers fall way off - there's a chance he's holdable the rest of the season.
Mitch Keller - Pittsburgh Pirates
Keller sits at 63% rostered at the moment as he goes into a two-start week. He has starts lined up against the Nationals and Rays - again, those are good matchups on paper.
Keller has also made three starts this season. He's 1-0 with a 1.00 ERA over 18 innings. He's allowed two runs on 12 hits and five walks, while striking out 11 batters.
There's good numbers in there, but also some things holding him back a bit. That makes him a good streaming option, and maybe worth holding until he starts allowing some more runs.
Grant Holmes - Atlanta Braves
Holmes is owned in 41% of leagues at the start of this week. He has two starts scheduled for the week - against the Marlins and Phillies. The Miami start is an enticing one, but Philadelphia is not a team I like targeting often.
He's 1-1 across three starts, but with a solid 2.55 ERA. Holmes has allowed five runs over 17 2/3 innings. He's given up 11 hits and eight walks, while striking out 14 batters.
Holmes is worth some more fantasy ownership/usage, especially if he keeps that low ERA going. He's at least worth streaming against the Marlins, and could be worth trying against the Phillies if he delivers first against Miami.
Joey Cantillo - Cleveland Guardians
Cantillo has starts scheduled against the Cardinals and Orioles this week. I like that set of probable matchups. He's owned in 48% of leagues.
Cantillo is 1-0 across his first three starts, which have covered 14 2/3 innings. He's allowed five runs (four earned) on 11 hits and seven walks, while striking out 20 batters.
He had some success last year splitting time as a reliever and starter, and he's off to a strong start in 2026. Cantillo is worth adding in some leagues, and streaming when he has good matchups, like he does this week.
