In MLB action this weekend, pitcher Tarik Skubal has emerged as a top starter in Fantasy leagues. Injuries struck key players, Shea Langeliers, who is likely done for the season due to a torn meniscus. Juan Soto suffered a Grade 2 calf strain, sidelining him for a month or more, while Cody Bellinger is also expected to miss time with a hamstring injury requiring an MRI. These developments have shifted team dynamics, particularly in the outfield. This week's waiver wire options include Francisco Alvarez and Endy Rodriguez as potential replacements for Langeliers, with further analysis available in CBSSports.com's coverage.
