Alec Bohm is mashing at a .445 wOBA over the past week with a 94.4 mph average exit velocity, and somehow 60% of fantasy leagues are still letting him sit on the wire. That's the headline this Sunday morning. Below, the full breakdown of 10 rising signals our system flagged in the last 24 hours — one urgent add, a deep watch list, and a ghost at 0% ownership who might be the most interesting hitter in baseball right now.
Today's Top Adds
Alec Bohm (1B/3B, PHI) — Add Now
Bohm's seven-day slash is absurd: .304 AVG, 2 HR, .445 wOBA against a .357 mark over the previous 30 days. The process backs up the results — his hard-hit rate sits at 44.4% with a 94.4 mph exit velocity, while his strikeout rate has ticked down to 15.4% and his walk rate has climbed to 7.7% (up from 6.2% over 30 days). This is a full 26-plate-appearance sample across five games, not a single-game blip. At 40% ownership and actually cooling in roster trends despite elite production, there's a clear disconnect between what Bohm is doing and how many managers are paying attention. The multi-position eligibility (1B/3B) adds lineup flexibility. This is a priority claim before Sunday lineups lock.
Watch List
Sung-Mun Song (2B/3B, SD) — Watch
This is the one that should make you sit up. Song is at 0% ownership — functionally invisible — while posting an 87.5% hard-hit rate and a 99.7 mph average exit velocity over the past week. His .458 wOBA dwarfs his 30-day .340 mark, and a 16.7% walk rate (up from 9.5%) suggests improving plate discipline, not just luck. The .300 AVG with 1 HR in a small five-game window is enticing but early. If he gets another week of consistent at-bats, he becomes an add, not a watch.
Josh Lowe (OF, LAA) — Watch
Lowe's .496 wOBA over the past seven days is the highest on this entire report. He's hitting .353 with 2 HR and a 95.2 mph exit velocity at a 50.0% hard-hit rate. Still just 2% owned. The 30-day wOBA was already elite at .482, so this isn't a sudden spike — it's a sustained heater that the ownership market hasn't caught up to. Monitor his playing time; if the at-bats stay consistent, this is a free power bat.
Tyler Stephenson (C, CIN) — Watch
Catcher is a wasteland, which makes Stephenson's week all the more notable: .357 AVG, .429 wOBA, 95.6 mph exit velocity, and an 83.3% hard-hit rate. His strikeout rate cratered from 20.0% over 30 days to 12.5%, while his walk rate nearly doubled to 12.5%. At 5% ownership, he's essentially free. The zero home runs are the only thing keeping him off the "Add Now" tier — the contact quality says the power is coming.
Tanner Scott (RP, LAD) — Watch
Scott posted a 0.00 ERA and 16.67 K/9 over the past week with a filthy -0.60 FIP. His strikeout rate jumped from 41.9% over 30 days to 50.0% in the last seven. At 53% ownership he's not a waiver play in most formats, but if he's somehow available in yours, the underlying data screams "don't wait." The Dodgers' bullpen hierarchy gives him high-leverage opportunities, and this K-rate surge is backed by elite swing-and-miss stuff.
Caleb Kilian (RP, SF) — Watch
The surface ERA of 6.00 is ugly, but underneath it sits a -0.23 FIP and a 38.5% strikeout rate (15 K/9). That's a massive ERA-FIP divergence suggesting bad luck on balls in play, not bad pitching. Ownership has already spiked 4% to 12% — the sharpest seven-day ownership jump among pitchers on today's board. If the ERA corrects toward the FIP over the next start or two, this window closes fast.
Heliot Ramos (OF, SF) — Watch
Ramos is squaring balls up at a 69.4% hard-hit rate with a 93.4 mph exit velocity, producing a .385 wOBA and .261 AVG with 2 HR. Ownership jumped 4% to 39%, making him the fastest-rising position player by roster percentage. The power-speed combination is tantalizing, but the batting average keeps this in watch territory rather than must-add.
Andrew Vaughn (1B, MIL) — Watch
Vaughn's 75.0% hard-hit rate and 96.8 mph exit velocity over the past week are elite contact-quality numbers. The .411 wOBA and .286 AVG are solid, though the zero home runs suggest he's been lining balls into gaps rather than over fences. At 26% ownership, he's a hold-and-monitor in most formats.
Rico Garcia (RP, BAL) — Watch
Garcia put up a 0.00 ERA and 8.18 K/9 over the past week with a solid 2.19 FIP. The strikeout rate is steady rather than spiking (23.1% vs 22.7% over 30 days), which means this is more about command and contact management than a sudden stuff upgrade. Useful in deeper leagues chasing ratios.
Eduard Bazardo (RP, SEA) — Watch
Bazardo's 30.0% K-rate (up from 26.3% over 30 days) and 1.60 FIP are intriguing, but the 4.50 ERA and 11% ownership suggest he's still a speculative add at best. The 13.5 K/9 flashes upside in holds leagues.
Stream of the Day
No streaming-specific signals fired today — no two-start pitchers or favorable matchup pairings hit our thresholds. If you need a ratios play from the bullpen, Rico Garcia's 0.00 ERA and 2.19 FIP over the past week make him the safest short-term option among available relievers. Check back tomorrow for Monday/Tuesday streaming starters.
Ownership Movers
- Caleb Kilian (12%, +4%): Justified. The -0.23 FIP and 38.5% K-rate are real. The ERA will scare off casual managers, which is exactly why the smart ones are adding now.
- Heliot Ramos (39%, +4%): Justified. A 69.4% hard-hit rate and 2 HR in a week is the kind of profile that drives adds. The underlying quality supports the movement.
- Tanner Scott (53%, +2%): Should be higher. A 50.0% strikeout rate and -0.60 FIP from a Dodgers reliever at 53% ownership is a market inefficiency, not a trend to watch.
- Rico Garcia (24%, +1%): Fair. The production is steady but unspectacular. Ratio-league asset, not a must-roster.
- Tyler Stephenson (5%, +1%): Undervalued. An 83.3% hard-hit rate and .429 wOBA at the catcher position at 5% ownership is one of the bigger mismatches on the board today.
Quick Hits
- Sung-Mun Song's 99.7 mph exit velocity is the highest average EV on today's entire report — and he's rostered in literally zero percent of leagues. The 87.5% hard-hit rate at that velocity isn't a fluke profile; it's a hitter squaring premium fastballs.
- Josh Lowe's .496 wOBA is up from an already-elite .482 over 30 days. That kind of sustained production at 2% ownership is the definition of hidden value. The Angels outfield is a playing-time maze, but the bat is undeniable when he's in the lineup.
- The catcher position is begging you to notice Tyler Stephenson. His 95.6 mph exit velocity would be impressive for any position — at catcher, it's a difference-maker. The strikeout rate dropping from 20.0% to 12.5% over the past week suggests a mechanical or approach adjustment, not randomness.
- Caleb Kilian's ERA-FIP split (6.00 ERA vs. -0.23 FIP) is one of the widest gaps you'll see in a seven-day window. That kind of divergence almost always corrects toward the FIP. If you can tolerate a week of ugly ratios in your transaction history, the upside is significant.
- Alec Bohm's ownership dropping 2% while he posted a .445 wOBA is the kind of market irrationality that wins waiver-wire leagues. Managers are selling; the data says buy.
