Fernando Tatis Jr. homers, but Padres fall to Blue Jays
by Chris Schommer | Padres Correspondent | Sat, Apr 20th 8:27am EDT
Fernando Tatis Jr. went 1-for-3 with a home run, a walk, an RBI, and a run scored in the Padres' 5-1 loss to the Blue Jays.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance slightly lifts his season batting average to .289 and adds to his solid start with six homers and 14 RBI through 22 games. While the Padres struggled overall, Tatis Jr.'s ability to contribute power and get on base remains a bright spot. His consistent power-hitting should keep him highly relevant in fantasy circles, especially in leagues that value extra-base hits and home runs. However, his strikeout rate, though not alarming, warrants monitoring as it could impact his batting average and on-base opportunities as the season progresses.
