Johnny Venizia highlighted Thomas Saggese as this week’s top waiver add. Newly promoted, Saggese is slashing .471 with one homer through his first seven MLB games after belting 46 long balls across his last two minor‑league seasons. The 22‑year‑old carries eligibility at second, short, and third, giving managers in‑season flexibility. Venizia warned the rookie will strike out but expects a serviceable average, everyday role in an offense performing better than expected, and a realistic path to 20 homers and solid RBI totals. With only 1 percent rostership, he urged viewers in need of middle‑infield pop or lineup depth to strike now before Saggese becomes a universal pickup.
