Ezequiel Duran is posting a .467 wOBA with a 54.1% hard-hit rate over the past week, and he's sitting at just 9% ownership — that's the biggest disconnect on the wire right now. If you need a bat with multi-position eligibility (1B/2B/3B/SS/OF), this is your Friday morning move. Here's everything that matters from the last 24 hours of waiver signals.

Today's Top Adds

Max Meyer (SP, MIA) — 57% owned (+35% 7d)

Meyer is the hottest arm on the wire and it's not particularly close. A 1.85 FIP over his recent stretch tells you the results are real, not lucky — and a 27.3% K rate over the last seven days is ticking up from an already-strong 25.8% over 30 days. He logged 12.0 IP in the past week with a 1.50 ERA and 9 K/9. Ownership has already surged 35 points in a week, so this is less "hidden gem" and more "last call." If he's somehow still available in your league, you're late. Go now.

Ezequiel Duran (1B,2B,3B,SS,OF, TEX) — 9% owned (+8% 7d)

Duran's seven-day line is absurd: .350 AVG, a homer, and that .467 wOBA backed by a 54.1% hard-hit rate. The process checks out too — his strikeout rate has dropped from 17.1% over 30 days to 14.8% over the last week, while his walk rate has climbed from 14.5% to 18.5%. That's a hitter making better swing decisions in real time. The 84.6 mph exit velocity is the one flag worth monitoring, but the plate discipline improvements and multi-position eligibility make him a priority add at 9% ownership. He logged 27 PA in the past week, so the playing time is there.

Spencer Steer (1B,OF, CIN) — 16% owned (+4% 7d)

Steer is doing the quiet things that sustain production: 55.0% hard-hit rate, 92.2 mph average exit velocity, strikeout rate down to 17.9% from 20.2% over 30 days, walk rate ticking up to 10.7%. His .365 wOBA and .320 AVG with a homer over 28 PA last week won't make headlines, but this is a hitter squaring the ball up with discipline and getting everyday at-bats. At 16% owned, he's still available in most leagues and offers solid 1B/OF flexibility.

Watch List

Brady House (3B, WSH) — 4% owned

The most intriguing signal on today's board. House's strikeout rate has cratered from 29.3% over 30 days to 11.8% over the last seven, and his wOBA has spiked from .259 to .427 in the same window. A .333 AVG with a homer and an 11.8% walk rate suggest a possible approach change. This is still early — keep watching, but if the K-rate holds below 15% through another week, he moves to "add now" territory.

Zack Gelof (2B,OF, ATH) — 2% owned

Gelof posted a .523 wOBA with two homers and a 77.8% hard-hit rate at 96.7 mph average exit velocity over the past week. That's elite-level batted ball data. His walk rate doubled from 5.3% to 10.5%. The concern is a .353 AVG that may be BABIP-inflated, but you can't argue with that exit velocity. At 2% owned, he's free — and if the power is real, this number won't stay here.

Joey Bart (C, PIT) — 0% owned

Bart's strikeout rate has plummeted from 35.6% over 30 days to 22.2% in the last week, and his wOBA has jumped from .285 to .418. A 75.0% hard-hit rate with 93.7 mph exit velocity is legitimately good. He's essentially unowned, and catcher is a wasteland — if you're streaming the position, he's worth a look now.

Jake McCarthy (OF, COL) — 1% owned

A .545 wOBA with two homers, a 13.3% K rate, a 13.3% walk rate, and 91.2 mph exit velocity. Playing in Colorado helps, but the discipline numbers — K rate down from 15.1%, walks up from 11.3% — are real regardless of park. Early signal, but this profile can produce in standard leagues if the playing time holds.

Miguel Andujar (3B,OF, SD) — 5% owned (+3% 7d)

Andujar is getting consistent at-bats (28 PA) and hitting .286 with a homer and 91.2 mph exit velocity. The 46.3% hard-hit rate is fine, not special. He's a steady floor play if you need a corner bat, but the upside ceiling is lower than the other names on this list.

Miguel Amaya (C, CHC) — 1% owned

The batting average is ugly (.143), but the underlying data says something different: 97.2 mph exit velocity, 75.0% hard-hit rate, and a walk rate that's ballooned to 25.0% over the past week. Amaya is making elite contact when he connects and drawing tons of free passes. If you play in an OBP league, he's interesting right now.

Bo Naylor (C, CLE) — 1% owned

Naylor's wOBA has surged from .200 over 30 days to .335 over the last week, with a homer, a .250 AVG, 94.5 mph exit velocity, and a 64.6% hard-hit rate. His K rate is down from 22.8% to 17.6%. The 30-day numbers were dismal, so this could simply be regression to a reasonable mean — but at the catcher position, "reasonable" plays.

Stream of the Day

No streaming-specific signals were detected today. With no pitching matchup data triggering our models, this section sits empty — check back tomorrow for weekend streaming options. If you're hunting for a spot start, Max Meyer's workload (12.0 IP in 7 days) suggests he could be in line for a turn through the weekend, and at this point, he's more of a roster hold than a stream anyway.

Ownership Movers

  • Max Meyer (57%, +35% 7d): The biggest mover on the board, and completely justified. A 1.85 FIP and rising K rate validate the rush. He may be a top-50 arm by month's end if this continues.
  • Ezequiel Duran (9%, +8% 7d): Ownership nearly doubled in a week. A .467 wOBA and improved plate discipline say this add wave has legs. The ownership is still criminally low.
  • Spencer Steer (16%, +4% 7d): A slower burn, but the 92.2 mph exit velocity and 55.0% hard-hit rate are sustaining metrics, not flash. The rise should continue.
  • Miguel Andujar (5%, +3% 7d): Modest ownership uptick matches modest production. He's a fine add in deeper formats but doesn't have the upside data that Duran or Gelof are showing.
  • Zack Gelof (2%, stable): Somehow not moving despite a .523 wOBA and 96.7 mph exit velocity. This is the definition of a market inefficiency. By next Friday, this number should look very different.

Quick Hits

  • Best exit velocity on the wire: Miguel Amaya at 97.2 mph, edging out Zack Gelof at 96.7 mph. Both are under 2% owned. The catcher position continues to hide value.
  • Biggest K-rate drop: Brady House went from 29.3% over 30 days to 11.8% over the last week — a 17.5 percentage point swing. That's either a mechanical adjustment or the smallest of small samples doing its thing. Either way, it demands attention.
  • Discipline king: Ezequiel Duran's 18.5% walk rate over the past week is the highest among all flagged hitters. A guy walking nearly one in five plate appearances while hitting .350 is not something you see sitting on waivers in May.
  • Catcher depth alert: Three catchers — Joey Bart, Miguel Amaya, and Bo Naylor — all showed rising signals today, all at 1% ownership or below. If your catcher slot is a black hole, this is the week to go shopping.
  • Hard-hit outlier: Gelof's 77.8% hard-hit rate is absurd even in a seven-day window. For context, Bart and Amaya also sit at 75.0%. These are the batted-ball profiles that translate to sustained power, not just hot-streak noise.
