Fantasy Impact:
Wade suffered through a disappointing 2025 season as he batted .167 with two home runs in 242 plate appearances between the Giants and Angels. However, the seven-year veteran hit 18 home runs in 2021 and 17 dingers in 2023 – both with the Giants. Wade is a career .236 hitter with 55 home runs – 54 against righthanders – in 560 career games. Playing time may be tough to come by for Wade, but he could be a solid lefthanded bat off the bench against right-handed pitching.
