Jake McCarthy is the top add of the morning — his .459 wOBA over the past seven days represents a 101-point jump from his 30-day mark, and at 17% ownership, the window is closing fast after an 11-point surge in the last week alone.

Today's Top Adds

Jake McCarthy (OF, COL) — 17% Rostered

McCarthy has been scorching over the past week: a .360 AVG with 2 home runs, a .459 wOBA, and 91.5 mph average exit velocity across 29 plate appearances. The process looks real — his walk rate has ballooned from 4.2% over 30 days to 10.3% over the last seven, suggesting a more disciplined approach rather than just BABIP luck. His 55.6% hard-hit rate supports the surge. Ownership has already climbed 11 points in the past week, and Coors Field isn't going anywhere. If he's still on your wire, he shouldn't be by the time lineups lock today.

Watch List

Sean Burke (SP/RP, CWS) — 30% Rostered

Burke is the biggest ownership mover of the cycle, jumping 14 points in seven days. The strikeout rate is ticking up — 28.6% over the last week versus 24.6% over 30 days — and a 1.97 FIP supports real quality. He's already at 30% rostered, so in competitive leagues he may already be spoken for. In shallower formats, he's approaching must-add territory if the next start confirms the trend.

Cam Smith (OF, HOU) — 14% Rostered

Smith quietly posted a .416 wOBA over the past seven days with a 94.3 mph average exit velocity — the hardest contact among today's hitter signals. His strikeout rate dropped sharply from 23.6% to 16.0% while his walk rate edged up to 12.0%. A .318 AVG and 1 HR across 25 PA in the Houston lineup make him a compelling stash. Still only 14% rostered with minimal ownership movement, so there's time.

Grant Taylor (SP/RP, CWS) — 13% Rostered

A 47.1% K-rate over the past week with a -0.10 FIP is absurd, even in a small sample of 5.0 innings. Taylor is missing bats at an elite clip, up from an already-impressive 40.4% over 30 days. Early signal only, but the swing-and-miss stuff is undeniable.

Nick Gonzales (2B/3B/SS, PIT) — 15% Rostered

Gonzales is the most eye-popping stat line in the entire report: a .532 wOBA, .455 AVG, 2 HR, 83.3% hard-hit rate, and a strikeout rate that was cut nearly in half (8.3% vs. 14.6% over 30 days) across 24 plate appearances. The multi-position eligibility adds roster flexibility. The 92.9 mph exit velocity is solid but not elite — watch whether the hard-hit rate sustains before moving him from watch to add.

Dylan Lee (RP, ATL) — 18% Rostered

Lee has been untouchable over the past week: a 0.00 ERA with a 15 K/9 and a 0.77 FIP. His K-rate surged from 32.6% to 45.5%. If Atlanta gives him high-leverage work consistently, he's a league-winner in waiting at 18% ownership.

Mason Fluharty (RP, TOR) — 1% Rostered

Nearly invisible on the radar at 1% ownership, Fluharty posted a 0.00 ERA, 12 K/9, and a 0.43 FIP over the past week with a 40.0% strikeout rate. Extremely early, but the ratios are pristine. Deep-league stash only for now.

Colin Holderman (RP, CLE) — 2% Rostered

Holderman's 4.86 ERA over the past week looks ugly at first glance, but the 1.21 FIP and 35.7% K-rate (12.16 K/9) suggest he was burned by sequencing, not poor stuff. Worth monitoring in Cleveland's bullpen hierarchy.

Rhys Hoskins (1B, CLE) — 1% Rostered

Hoskins has been almost universally dropped, sitting at just 1% ownership. But over the past seven days, he's posted a .505 wOBA, .364 AVG, 1 HR, and a blistering 97.7 mph average exit velocity — the highest among all hitters in today's report. His strikeout rate dropped from 23.9% to 14.3% while maintaining a 21.4% walk rate. The contact quality is real. If you need a first baseman in deeper formats, this is a free roll.

Alex Lange (RP, KC) — 0% Rostered

Lange is essentially unowned but just posted a 0.00 ERA, 16.67 K/9, and a 0.51 FIP. His K-rate skyrocketed from 19.1% over 30 days to 45.5% over the past week. That's a massive spike — either something mechanical clicked or this is noise. Either way, at 0% ownership, the cost to find out is nothing.

Stream of the Day

No streaming-specific signals were detected today. With no matchup-based triggers in the data, the best pseudo-streaming play is Grant Taylor — a 47.1% K-rate and a -0.10 FIP over the past week from a 13%-rostered arm gives you elite upside if he gets a spot start or bulk outing. Check his next scheduled appearance and deploy accordingly. Otherwise, check back tomorrow for targeted streaming recommendations.

Ownership Movers

  • Sean Burke (30%, +14% 7d) — The biggest riser this cycle, and the underlying data backs it completely. A 1.97 FIP and rising K-rate justify the stampede. If you're late, you may already be too late in 12-team leagues.
  • Jake McCarthy (17%, +11% 7d) — Eleven points of ownership gain in a week for a Coors-based outfielder with a .459 wOBA and improved plate discipline. This is rational market behavior — get ahead of it.
  • Cam Smith (14%, +2% 7d) — Modest ownership growth doesn't yet match the stat surge. A .416 wOBA and 94.3 mph exit velocity suggest the market is sleeping on this one.
  • Grant Taylor (13%, +1% 7d) — Barely moving on the ownership front despite nearly a 50% K-rate. The market hasn't caught on yet, which is your advantage.
  • Nick Gonzales (15%, +1% 7d) — A .532 wOBA and 83.3% hard-hit rate with essentially flat ownership means this is still a buy-low window. Multi-position eligibility sweetens the deal.

Quick Hits

  • Rhys Hoskins' 97.7 mph average exit velocity leads all hitters in today's signals — he's hitting the ball harder than anyone on this list despite being rostered in just 1% of leagues. The bat speed is clearly still there.
  • Alex Lange's K-rate jumped from 19.1% to 45.5% in one week — a 26.4-percentage-point swing that's the largest single change in today's data. Even accounting for small sample size, that's a dramatic mechanical or approach shift worth tracking.
  • Nick Gonzales' 83.3% hard-hit rate is borderline absurd and nearly 30 points above the next-best hitter signal today (Jake McCarthy at 55.6%). Regression is coming, but some of this quality of contact may stick.
  • Two White Sox arms — Sean Burke and Grant Taylor — both show up with rising K-rates and sub-2.00 FIPs. Chicago's pitching development pipeline is quietly producing fantasy-relevant arms.
  • Three relievers posted 0.00 ERAs this week with K/9 rates above 12: Dylan Lee (15 K/9), Alex Lange (16.67 K/9), and Mason Fluharty (12 K/9). If any of them are in line for save opportunities, they're immediate adds, not watches.
