Quick hits looking at potential players to target on the week 16 waiver wire.

This one truly will be “quick hits” because I’m hustling to get this out.

Pitchers

Duh

• Spencer Schwellenbach: Leads all sub-50% owned pitchers over the last month with a 52.1% Strike% and an impressive 18.3% K-BB%. The fantastic outing hasn’t come yet, but all of the signs are there.

• DJ Herz: Sports a 29% K-BB% over his last five starts (34% K%, 5% BB%). It hasn’t been consistent production, with a few big outings boosting his numbers, but overall, this is a very pretty picture.

• Yusei Kikuchi: He has gone out there and disappointed in four straight outings (vs. BOS/CLE/NYY/HOU), but it’s still a 19% K-BB% on the year and a very solid resume over the last few years. There will be better matchups ahead.
