The waiver wire isn’t lacking in useful bats this week.

With only one week left, you should feel free to swap out whomever allows you to maximize your lineup — especially if it’s for Frank Schwindel, who somehow remains unrostered in more than one-third of CBS Sports leagues.
One streaking hitter who you shouldn’t count on, though, is Bobby Dalbec, even with the Red Sox having the fourth-best hitter matchups this week. They close out the season in Washington and won’t have the DH spot available for three games. It means one of J.D. Martinez, Kyle Schwarber, Hunter Renfroe, Alex Verdugo and Dalbec will have to sit, and while it may not be Dalbec for all three, he would appear to be the most vulnerable.
