- Scott White released 10 sleeper hitters for the Aug. 10-16 scoring period, and all are rostered in less than 80% of CBS Sports leagues
- Ezequiel Duran and Andrew Vaughn headline the top 10 sleeper hitters for Week 21
- The Texas Rangers drew the No. 1 hitter matchup schedule, with four games at the Angels and three at Oakland
- The Chicago Cubs rank second among best hitter matchups, facing Washington (3 games) and hosting St. Louis (3 games)
- The San Diego Padres face the worst Week 21 hitter schedule, drawing Milwaukee (3) and playing at Cleveland (3)

Why it matters: Fantasy managers in CBS Sports leagues gain a tactical edge from knowing which teams have the most hitter-friendly schedules for Week 21. With the Rangers facing two weak AL West pitching staffs and the Padres drawing two top-tier arms, waiver-wire decisions for the Aug. 10-16 scoring period hinge on these matchup splits.
