Welcome to another episode of the FantasyPros Baseball Podcast. The show is hosted by our own Bobby Sylvester (@bobbyfantasypros). He’ll be interviewing featured experts and team correspondents who will provide insight throughout the baseball season.

As the league plays one more week of baseball before the All-Star Break, it’s time look at the waiver wire again to see who’s out there that could give your team a second-half boost. Joining us to do so is Pierre Camus of RotoBaller. Three prospects got promoted and all of them are worth adding right away if available (0:54). Are there any more prospects worth stashing right this moment (9:47)? We go through hitters worth picking up first starting with the more highly owned guys (20:20). Justin Smoak is worth adding if he’s out there (23:21) and Alex Verdugo should have a much higher ownership percentage (30:28). Caleb Smith will make his return soon and if he was dropped, he’s an immediate add (36:34). And as we begin looking to the future, we’re making our playoff predictions including our World Series pick (56:01).
