Description: Roki Sasaki had a big velo jump against the Yankees this weekend. How do we rank these waiver wire pitchers and streamers? Is Luis Robert a must-roster? Rank Cole Young, Nasim Nuñez and Tommy Edman. Any interest in these deeper waiver wire hitters?

Alvarez is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays.

Alvarez is red-hot right now, hitting six homers and posting a sizzling 1.654 OPS over his last 10 games, but he will get a break a day after the Astros clinched the AL West. Aledmys Diaz will start in left field in Alvarez's place.
