CBS Sports analyst identifies waiver wire targets for Fantasy Baseball Week 10
Top candidates include Spencer Steer and Casey Schmitt as managers seek injury replacements and hot-hand plays for the upcoming scoring period.
CBS Sports fantasy analyst Scott White has published a preview for Fantasy Baseball Week 10, identifying ten "sleeper hitters" available in less than 80 per cent of CBS Sports leagues. The article highlights Spencer Steer and Casey Schmitt as top sleeper candidates, positioning them as potential waiver wire targets for injury replacements or "hot-hand" plays.
The preview outlines matchup schedules for the top five hitters from both the American and National Leagues for the upcoming scoring period. The content is part of a recurring weekly fantasy baseball preview series, with CBS Sports maintaining regular coverage of major sports including MLB, NFL, NBA, and NHL.
The specific sleeper hitters listed for the American League include the Athletics, Braves, Cardinals, Diamondbacks, and Red Sox. Their respective matchups feature the Athletics facing the Mariners and Yankees, the Braves playing at the Red Sox and Reds, the Cardinals at the Brewers and against the Cubs, the Diamondbacks at the Giants and Mariners, and the Red Sox against the Braves and at the Guardians.
The specific sleeper hitters listed for the National League include the Cubs, Brewers, Rangers, Twins, and Yankees. The Cubs play at the Pirates and Cardinals, the Brewers against the Cardinals and at the Astros, the Rangers against the Astros and Royals, the Twins at the White Sox and Pirates, and the Yankees at the Royals and Athletics.
The term "sleeper" in this context refers to players who are not must-starts but offer value off the waiver wire, typically due to low ownership percentages. The ownership statistic is specific to CBS Sports leagues and may not reflect broader fantasy baseball platforms, according to the publication.
The source text lists teams and opponents but does not explicitly confirm the specific dates or finalised fixture list for Week 10, only the matchups. The article was authored by Scott White and published via CBS Sports on 22 May 2026.
This follows recent activity from CBS Sports, which published its "HQ PM Newsletter" on 14 May 2026 featuring live scoring, news, and statistics for major sports. The publication highlighted significant NHL playoff matchups and provided betting insights for MLB games during that period.
