Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Week 8: Top options to consider at each position in standard and deeper leagues

The 2022 MLB season has seen a steady stream of top prospects promoted to the bigs, and the latest comes in the form of Cardinals second baseman Nolan Gorman, who leads Triple-A with 15 home runs, and he's put together a .308/.367/.677 line in 147 plate appearances. He still strikes out a ton, so there's no guarantee he'll shine in his first exposure to major-league pitching, but the upside makes him a must-add in leagues where he's still available. Also note that Adley Rutschman is still available in 17 percent of CBS leagues, and his promotion seems imminent, so make sure you check to see if you're able to scoop him up now.

Before you determine which players you should target on the Fantasy baseball waiver wire ahead of Week 8, you NEED to see what R.J. White has to say.

If you're a regular subscriber to SportsLine, you probably know White from dominating NFL picks for years, but did you know he actually got his start in sports media as a fantasy baseball analyst? He even finished No. 1 among all experts for his draft rankings the first year FantasyPros tracked MLB expert accuracy on their site. White has continued to excel at season-long and dynasty Fantasy baseball formats, and this year he's sharing his Fantasy baseball expertise with SportsLine subscribers.

Now, he's revealed the best widely available free agents ahead of Week 8. One player to target on the Week 8 waiver wire: Mariners outfielder Kyle Lewis. "Lewis has yet to make his season debut after undergoing meniscus surgery last June, but that day should be fast approaching. He's nearly at the end of his maximum rehab window, and he's been locked in while rehabbing with Triple-A Tacoma, hitting .324/.410/.647 with three homers in 39 plate appearances," White says.

White is also all-in on a barely rostered reliever with MASSIVE upside! You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before making any Week 8 waiver wire claims.
