“Rising Stars on the Waiver Wire: Could Tyler Soderstrom and Jack Leiter Be Your Secret Weapons This Season?”
Victor Scott II – OF, STL: 30% rostered
(SPEED UPSIDE, BATTING AVERAGE POTENTIAL)
Last year, we were all going gaga over Scott because of his game-changing speed, but this year we seem to have forgotten about him despite him having a great spring training. That’s the unfortunate power of one bad sample of MLB data. No, Scott is not going to hit many home runs or help you much in counting stats given that he hits at the bottom of the Cardinals’ order, but the speed upside remains, and he’s stolen two bases so far through two games. If he can just hit .250 or higher, then he’s not going to hurt you in your batting average category, and he’s going to carry you in stolen bases.
