Daily Waiver Report — Saturday, June 27, 2026
Denzer Guzman is posting a .512 wOBA over the past seven days with a 92.2 mph average exit velocity, 66.7% hard-hit rate, and a walk rate that's doubled from 8.3% to 17.6% — and he's still sitting at just 4% ownership. If you need a middle infielder with upside, this is the line you act on before the rest of your league wakes up to it.
Today's Top Adds
No players triggered an Add Now signal in the past 24 hours. Every name on today's board falls into the Watch List tier — meaning the data is compelling but the sample or ownership trajectory hasn't crossed the threshold for a full endorsement yet. That said, several of these players are one good weekend away from moving up. Read the Watch List closely.
Watch List
Denzer Guzman (3B/SS, LAA) — 4% Owned
The headline number is that .512 wOBA over five games, up from .346 on the 30-day window. He's hitting .357 with two homers, walking at a 17.6% clip (more than double his 8.3% 30-day rate), and his strikeout rate has ticked down to 17.6% from 18.3%. The 66.7% hard-hit rate and 92.2 mph exit velocity confirm this isn't hollow contact. Ownership climbed 3% in seven days. The dual eligibility at third and short adds roster flexibility. Monitor through the weekend — another productive series and this becomes an Add Now.
Trevor Larnach (OF, MIN) — 6% Owned
Larnach is slashing .429 with a .470 wOBA over the past week, and the plate discipline jump is the real story: his strikeout rate plummeted from 17.3% on the month to 6.2% over the last seven days. The 43.3% hard-hit rate is modest and the 86.8 mph exit velocity doesn't scream power, so temper home run expectations. But this kind of contact-and-patience combination produces batting average value in deeper leagues. Ownership is up 3% and trending in the right direction.
Anthony Volpe (SS, NYY) — 7% Owned
Volpe's 100.5 mph average exit velocity over the past seven days jumps off the page. Pair that with a 75.0% hard-hit rate and a .369 wOBA (up from .324 on the month), and the quality-of-contact indicators are screaming. He's hitting .353 with a 10.5% walk rate. At 7% ownership, there's still a window, but it's closing — he gained 2% this week. The exit velo alone makes him worth a speculative add in leagues where shortstop is thin.
Tyler Stephenson (C, CIN) — 5% Owned
A catcher with a 0.0% strikeout rate over a seven-day window gets your attention. Stephenson posted a .422 wOBA and .364 average with a homer, backed by a 63.9% hard-hit rate and 91.8 mph exit velocity. The 30-day strikeout rate of 23.0% tells you this discipline level won't sustain, but the underlying contact quality is real. Catcher is a wasteland — if you're streaming the position, Stephenson deserves a look while the hot streak lasts.
Tristan Peters (OF, CWS) — 2% Owned
Peters has been quietly excellent: .385 average, .476 wOBA, one homer, a 6.2% strikeout rate (down from 12.0%), and a 12.5% walk rate (up from 6.7%). The 90.5 mph exit velocity and 45.0% hard-hit rate are acceptable, not elite. Still at 2% ownership, so there's no urgency — but the plate discipline trend across five games is worth tracking into next week.
Coby Mayo (1B/3B, BAL) — 2% Owned
The batting average (.167) is ugly, but dig underneath. Mayo's strikeout rate dropped from a brutal 38.4% to 30.0%, his walk rate jumped from 4.1% to 10.0%, and he's logged 20 plate appearances in the past seven days — consistent playing time that matters for a young player. The 91.5 mph exit velocity and one homer show the power tool is there. This is a pure stash in dynasty and deeper mixed formats. The approach improvements need to hold for another week before he becomes actionable.
Kahlil Watson (OF, CLE) — 1% Owned
Watson's strikeout rate is still an alarming 40.0%, even though it's down from 47.6% on the month. What catches the eye is the 95.3 mph exit velocity and 58.3% hard-hit rate — the raw power is unmistakable. His wOBA jumped from .238 to .333 over seven days. This is a deep-league flier only — the swing-and-miss is too aggressive for shallower formats, but the physical tools are tantalizing if the K-rate continues to trend down.
Brad Lord (SP/RP, WSH) — 4% Owned
Lord posted a 37.5% strikeout rate over the past seven days, up from 26.8% on the month, across 6.3 innings pitched. That's an elite punchout rate. The dual SP/RP eligibility adds versatility. Keep him on your radar — one more dominant outing and he enters streaming territory with a path to a longer-term hold.
Jacob Gonzalez (1B/2B/SS, CWS) — 2% Owned
Three-position eligibility is the hook. Gonzalez's strikeout rate cratered from 26.2% to 8.3% over seven days while his wOBA climbed from .293 to .401. He hit .273 with a homer. The 89 mph exit velocity and 41.7% hard-hit rate suggest the power may be more gap-to-gap than over-the-fence. Deep league watch only.
Dominic Canzone (OF, SEA) — 19% Owned
Canzone is the outlier on this list — his ownership is actually dropping, down 10% on the week to 19%, even as his underlying data remains strong. The 101.3 mph exit velocity and 66.7% hard-hit rate are the best on today's entire board. His wOBA sits at .422. The .167 batting average is suppressing his perceived value, but a 25.0% walk rate shows he's getting on base through patience. Managers cutting Canzone based on average alone are making a mistake — the batted ball data says a correction is coming. If he's been dropped in your league, he's a buy-low candidate.
Stream of the Day
No streaming-specific signals triggered today. Brad Lord is the closest candidate with his 37.5% strikeout rate, but without a confirmed start or matchup data, he doesn't meet the threshold for a full streaming recommendation. Check back tomorrow.
Ownership Movers
- Denzer Guzman (4%, +3%): Justified. The .512 wOBA and improved walk rate are backed by exit velocity and hard-hit data. This train has room to run.
- Trevor Larnach (6%, +3%): Cautiously justified. The strikeout rate drop is dramatic, but the modest exit velocity (86.8 mph) limits the ceiling. Batting average play, not a power play.
- Anthony Volpe (7%, +2%): Strongly justified. A 100.5 mph exit velocity with a 75.0% hard-hit rate is the kind of quality-of-contact spike that predicts real production, not noise.
- Coby Mayo (2%, +0%): Not yet moving, and that's fair. The .167 average is hard to stomach even with the approach improvements. Let the numbers catch up.
- Tyler Stephenson (5%, +0%): Surprisingly flat given the week he's having. The 0.0% K-rate won't hold, but the hard-hit metrics suggest this isn't pure luck. Ownership should tick up.
Quick Hits
- Dominic Canzone's 101.3 mph exit velocity is the highest among all 10 players flagged today, yet his ownership is the only one actively declining. The market is wrong here.
- Kahlil Watson's strikeout rate dropped nearly 8 percentage points week-over-week (47.6% to 40.0%). Still unplayable in most formats, but that's a meaningful swing for a 1%-owned prospect worth monitoring.
- Tyler Stephenson didn't strike out once across his past seven-day sample (0.0% K-rate). Among catchers on today's board, his .422 wOBA and 63.9% hard-hit rate make him the best positional value play.
- Tristan Peters quietly owns the highest wOBA (.476) among all outfielders in today's report, edging out Trevor Larnach's .470. At 2% ownership, he's the deeper sleeper of the two.
- Anthony Volpe's 75.0% hard-hit rate leads all hitters flagged today. Combined with the triple-digit exit velocity, his power may be unlocking — zero homers in the sample, which means the results haven't caught up to the contact quality yet.
