Jeff McNeil Re-Emerging as a Viable Waiver-Wire Target

Across 487 plate appearances in 2026, Athletics second baseman/outfielder Jeff McNeil is hitting .268/.315/.371 with eight home runs, 54 RBI, 49 runs scored, and eight stolen bases. The 34-year-old does not profile as a power source, as he's logged a tiny 1.8% barrel rate this year. However, McNeil has struck out in just 11.3% of his plate appearances. The veteran lefty has been a high-end source of batting average in the second half of the season, hitting .333 across 190 plate appearances since the All-Star break. He's also moved into a prominent spot in the banged-up A's lineup, batting second in each of his last 11 games played. Heading into the final stretch of the regular season, McNeil profiles as an under-the-radar source of batting average and run production for fantasy managers to target on the waiver wire.

Jeff McNeil an Everyday Option with Positional Versatility

Athletics infielder Jeff McNeil has delivered an uptick in production lately, making him an intriguing player to target on the waiver wire in deeper fantasy baseball leagues. Since the start of August, he's 38-for-112 (.339) with four homers, seven doubles, 19 RBI, four walks, 12 strikeouts, and five steals. Those numbers are substantially better than his season-long statistics, although his "back of the baseball card" numbers aren't necessarily concerning. This year, he owns a .271/.321/.378 slash line with eight homers, eight steals, 52 RBI, a 6.0% walk rate, an 11.3% strikeout rate, and 89 wRC+. Since the start of August, his slash line and home run total have increased while his strikeout rate has remained relatively constant. Because of his recent improvements at the plate, McNeil is an intriguing fantasy baseball waiver wire target in deeper leagues. He has played mostly first base and second base for the A's, but he also has fantasy eligibility in all three outfield spots. The 34-year-old is currently available to be picked up in 80% of leagues.

Jeff McNeil Gets Traded to the Athletics

New York Mets infielder/outfielder Jeff McNeil was traded to the Athletics on Monday, according to ESPN's Jeff Passan. In exchange, the Mets will receive right-hander Yordan Rodriguez from the A's. The assumption is that McNeil will take over the starting second base job to begin the 2026 season. Last season, McNeil slashed .243/.335/.411 with 12 home runs and 54 RBI in 122 games with the Mets. His numbers have fallen over the last few seasons, but McNeil is still a decent contributor. McNeil finished with a 2.0 WAR last season, so the A's will take that in exchange for a 17-year-old pitcher. The hope is that the move to a smaller stadium with the A's should boost his offensive numbers. The 33-year-old did undergo thoracic outlet surgery in November, but he's expected to be ready for spring training.

Mets Fielding Trade Offers for Jeff McNeil

The New York Mets are fielding trade inquiries on second baseman Jeff McNeil, according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post. McNeil has just one year left on an overpriced contract, and there is interest from teams around the league after he showed new versatility in 2025. The 33-year-old former batting champion underwent a minor procedure for thoracic outlet syndrome shortly after the season ended, but he's expected to be ready to go for spring training. McNeil is a contact-oriented second baseman who also showed in 2025 that he can fill in if needed in the outfield, which will help his trade value. The two-time All-Star holds more real-life value than fantasy value, coming off his eighth season in the big leagues in which he hit .243 (97-for-399) with 12 home runs, 54 RBI, 42 runs, and three steals in 122 games.

Jeff McNeil has Procedure for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

New York Mets second baseman Jeff McNeil (shoulder) underwent a minor procedure for thoracic outlet syndrome shortly after the season ended, according to his agent, Garrett Parcell. McNeil already has good range of motion after the surgery and is expected to be a full participant in spring training in 2026. Parcell noted that McNeil's injury affected his swing late in the season, one in which he finished with a .243/.335/.411 slash line, .746 OPS, 12 home runs, 54 RBI, 42 runs scored, and three steals in 122 games played. The 33-year-old former batting champion had a rough .514 OPS in the final month of the season, but he could bounce back next year with better health. Even though McNeil could be New York's starting second baseman on Opening Day, he doesn't offer much in the way of fantasy upside at his age unless he suddenly becomes a .300 hitter again, which is unlikely.

Jeff McNeil Back in Lineup on Saturday

New York Mets second baseman/outfielder Jeff McNeil (shoulder) is returning to the lineup on Saturday in a meeting with the Atlanta Braves. He'll hit fifth against right-hander Cal Quantrill after missing two straight games with soreness in his right shoulder. McNeil has hit a respectable .294/.342/.426 with one home run, eight RBI, and a 9:5 K:BB in 18 games this month. He owns an overall slash line of .259/.350/.442 with 10 homers, 40 RBI, 33 runs scored, and more walks (38) than strikeouts (36) in 342 plate appearances.

Jeff McNeil Out Again on Friday

New York Mets second baseman/outfielder Jeff McNeil (shoulder) will start on the bench again for Friday's series opener against the division-rival Atlanta Braves at Truist Park. Brett Baty is making another start at the keystone and is hitting out of the six-hole against Braves left-hander Joey Wentz. McNeil is considered day-to-day with soreness in his right shoulder and will miss his second straight game. The 33-year-old former batting champion isn't dealing with anything serious, but when he does return to the starting nine, the Mets could ease him back in the designated hitter spot so that he won't be forced to make throws. McNeil hasn't done much to excite fantasy managers all year, but he has hit a strong .294 (20-for-68) with a homer, six doubles and eight RBI in 18 games in the month of August. Baty has two hits and an RBI in only four career at-bats against Wentz. UPDATE: An MRI exam on McNeil's shoulder came back clean, according to manager Carlos Mendoza. He will be available off the bench on Friday night.

Jeff McNeil Out With Shoulder Soreness

New York Mets infielder/outfielder Jeff McNeil (shoulder) is dealing with right-shoulder soreness, which bothers him mostly when he's throwing, according to MLB.com's Anthony DiComo. It's the reason why McNeil is not in Thursday's starting lineup against the division-rival Washington Nationals. Brett Baty is starting at second base and will bat sixth against Nationals left-hander MacKenzie Gore. It sounds like the 33-year-old McNeil shouldn't need a trip to the injured list with an injury that has been bothering him since last week, but it's possible that he'll be eased back in as the designated hitter, possibly for Friday's series opener against the division-rival Atlanta Braves on the road. McNeil hasn't looked like a former batting champion in 2025, but he's looked his best in August, going 20-for-67 (.299) with a homer, six doubles, eight RBI and nine runs scored in 17 games played.

Jeff McNeil Clubs Three-Run Homer in Win

New York Mets second baseman Jeff McNeil continued to swing a hot bat in Thursday's 4-3 victory over the division-rival Washington Nationals at Citi Field to complete the sweep. McNeil went 1-for-2 in the contest with a three-run home run off right-hander Michael Soroka in the first inning to set the tone. The 33-year-old former National League batting champion now has three long balls in his last four games and is hitting .340 (16-for-47) in his last 13 games to raise his season average to .270 and his OPS to .911. He got a late start to the 2025 season due to injury but has now clubbed seven home runs and driven in 22 runs in his first 38 games played in 2025. McNeil hit only .238 (101-for-424) a season ago for the Mets in 129 games with 12 home runs and 44 RBI. We want to see more from McNeil before saying he's back, but there's no denying he's seeing the ball well right now at the plate.

Jeff McNeil Homers Twice, Drives in Four

New York Mets second baseman Jeff McNeil had a great day at the plate in a 13-5 win against the Rockies on Sunday, going 3-for-6 with two home runs, a double, three runs, and four RBI. The veteran has enjoyed the series in Coors Field, as this was his second straight game where he has left the yard. He's now slashing .257/.355/.533 with six home runs, 17 RBI, and 12 runs through 35 games. The 33-year-old is no longer a threat to hit for a .300 batting average like he was earlier in his career, but he should still provide a solid OBP and good enough counting stats to make him worth rostering as a middle infield option in deep roto leagues.
