Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire: The red-hot Brewers are ripe for both offense and steals this weekend
With less than a week to go until the MLB trade deadline, many mid-level clubs will be doing everything in their power to move up the standings this weekend. Fantasy baseball managers who need offense this weekend would be wise to grab multiple players from the Orioles and Brewers. On the pitching side, Ryne Nelson and Dean Kremer are the players to add, although there are several other hurlers listed at the bottom of this article who could make useful contributions. Matchups to Target Orioles vs. Rockies After improving during June, Baltimore's offense ranks 29th in runs scored this month. They could get back on track this weekend, when they face a Rockies pitching staff with a 5.50 ERA. Ramón Laureano (16%) has been one of the hottest hitters in baseball, making him a must-add player in any league for this series. Ryan O'Hearn (29%) and Cedric Mullins (51%) are also solid options. Brewers vs. Marlins The red-hot Brewers could start off their weekend series on a high note when they face Cal Quantrill (5.24 ERA) on Friday and Jansen Junk (6.3 K/9 rate) on Saturday. Their Sunday matchup with Eury Pérez is challenging but not intimidating. Isaac Collins (4%) remains widely available despite becoming a five-category contributor, making him the player to target. Managers can also consider Caleb Durbin (22%), Andrew Vaughn (9%) and Joey Ortiz (6%). Phillies @ Yankees The Phillies could feast on Will Warren and Marcus Stroman on Friday and Saturday before engaging in a tougher matchup with Carlos Rodón on Sunday. The key members of this lineup are widely rostered, but Otto Kemp (2%) is someone to consider while he fills in for Alec Bohm at third base. Brandon Marsh (3%) could also have success against righties in the initial two games. Mariners @ Angels Although Seattle's run total may be good rather than great, they should have plenty of baserunners against José Soriano (1.43 WHIP), Tyler Anderson (1.41 WHIP), Kyle Hendricks (1.29 WHIP) and a bullpen with a 1.48 WHIP. Jorge Polanco (31%) has recently broken out of a slump, and rookie Cole Young (2%) has fared well in July. J.P. Crawford (21%) has a low ceiling but is typically effective out of the leadoff spot. Rangers vs. Braves Atlanta is running out of starting pitchers, which leaves the hot-hitting Rangers to face Joey Wentz (5.71 ERA) on Friday and Bryce Elder (5.63 ERA) on Sunday. Josh Smith (35%) could score a few runs out of the leadoff spot, and Josh Jung (27%) may be ready to turn around a forgettable season after recently being recalled from the Minors. Matchups to Avoid Athletics @ Astros The Athletics could struggle on Friday and Sunday, when they face Hunter Brown and Framber Valdez. Nick Kurtz, Brent Rooker and Tyler Soderstrom are the three lineup members who should stay active everywhere. [Smarter waivers, better trades, optimized lineups — Yahoo Fantasy Plus unlocks it all] Angels vs. Mariners The Angels will face the toughest part of the Mariners elite rotation when they draw Bryan Woo, George Kirby and Logan Gilbert this weekend. Zach Neto and Mike Trout are the two must-start Angels, and Taylor Ward will remain active in some leagues. Seeking Saves Kevin Ginkel, D-backs (10% Rostered) Cubs closer Danny Palencia (53%) is the saves source to add in shallow leagues, but he has been mentioned often enough in this space. Instead, I'll go with Ginkel, who is working the ninth inning in a depleted Arizona bullpen. Ginkel has logged a 2.31 ERA since June 20, and he could get multiple save chances when the D-backs face the 42-61 Pirates. Seeking Steals Isaac Collins, OF, Brewers (4% Rostered) Collins has been a revelation for the red-hot Brewers, hitting .299 with an .873 OPS since June 1. He has also flashed speed by swiping 11 bases in 217 at-bats this year. The outfielder could add to his swipes total when he faces a Marlins team that has allowed 14 more steals than any other club. Caleb Durbin (22%) is another good candidate to swipe a base. Streaming starters In order, here are the best streamers for the weekend, with their start date and Yahoo! roster rate in brackets. Ryne Nelson @ PIT (Friday, 42%) Dean Kremer vs. COL (Friday, 33%) José Soriano vs. SEA (Friday, 37%) Cade Horton @ CWS (Saturday, 14%) Jacob Lopez @ HOU (Saturday, 19%) Jose Quintana vs. MIA (Saturday, 21%) Tomoyuki Sugano vs. COL (Sunday, 12%) Zebby Matthews vs. WSH (Saturday, 17%) Jeffrey Springs @ HOU (Friday, 35%)

Orioles vs. Guardians predictions: MLB Thursday picks, odds, best bets
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. The Guardians will host the Orioles in Cleveland in the first tilt of a five-game slate Thursday. The O's will send veteran right-hander Charlie Morton, who has an ugly 5.58 ERA on the season, to the mound. Despite what his season-long stats say, Morton has been strong of late. Through his first five starts, Morton posted a 10.89 ERA, giving up at least four earned runs and never going more than five innings. Orioles brass took the 41-year-old out of the rotation after it appeared his big-league career could be coming to a quick close. But since going back into a starter role in late May, Morton has been better than solid. In nine starts since May 26, Morton has a 3.78 ERA while striking out 9.82 batters per nine innings and allowing less than a home run per nine innings (0.76). Charlie Morton #50 of the Baltimore Orioles pitches in the fourth inning during a game against the Tampa Bay Rays at George M. Steinbrenner Field on July 18, 2025 in Tampa, Florida. Getty Images Morton has pitched well enough to make him one of the most coveted starting pitchers on a thin trade market as Baltimore struggles to get back in the American League playoff race. Baltimore (44-57) enters Thursday 9 1/2 games out of the third and final wild card spot. He'll face a scuffling Guardians lineup, setting up a good opportunity for Morton to boost his trade value. Cleveland's .670 OPS is the third-lowest in baseball this season, ahead of only the lowly Chicago White Sox and Pittsburgh Pirates. Learn all you need to know about MLB Betting While they're lineup is light-hitting as a whole, the Guardians are above-average at avoiding strikeouts. Instead of punchouts, I'm targeting Morton to pitch deep enough in this game to hit the Over on his outs prop.

Orioles All-Star Tagged As Best First Baseman On Market By MLB Insider
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. The Baltimore Orioles have fallen off from their playoff-clinching performance of last season, and now they are focusing on trading expiring contracts to retool for a run at October next year. But as the Orioles' season crumbles below them, first baseman Ryan O'Hearn has put together an All-Star campaign, resurging his career and, according to Mark Feinsand, is the best first baseman on the trade market. ATLANTA, GA - JULY 15: Ryan O'Hearn #32 of the Baltimore Orioles bats during the MLB All-Star Game at Truist Park on July 15, 2025 in Atlanta, Georgia. ATLANTA, GA - JULY 15: Ryan O'Hearn #32 of the Baltimore Orioles bats during the MLB All-Star Game at Truist Park on July 15, 2025 in Atlanta, Georgia. Photo by Matthew Grimes Jr./O'Hearn, who is a free agent at the end of the season, revitalized his career in Baltimore after a disastrous tenure with the Kansas City Royals. He is now expected to be one of the top options on the trade block next week. O'Hearn entered Wednesday with 12 home runs and a .280 batting average and a .828 OPS. The market is thin in run-producing bats, and O'Hearn not only fills that need but is versatile enough to play the corner outfield spots as well. O'Hearn comes with a low risk due to his impending free agency, potentially causing his price to drop a slight amount. The Orioles are going to trade him away with the focus on building up their roster, and teams should be waiting on the phone lines to grab O'Hearn for the final two months. With the market heating up, the Orioles will be very active with all of their expiring contracts, but the most value is coming from making a deal to send O'Hearn to a contender. O'Hearn will be sought after and could very easily be the first domino to fall in the left-handed hitting market. More MLB: Royals Reportedly Willing To Trade, Looking To Compete Next Year
