Eligibility
Connor Joe went 2-for-4 in the Pirates' 5-4 loss to the Cubs, delivering a home run, a double, two runs scored, and two RBI.
Fantasy Impact
This performance underscores Joe's solid season, as he continues to maintain a .292 batting average with consistent power and run production. His ability to contribute across multiple categories, evidenced by his five homers and 22 runs scored in 35 games, makes him a valuable asset in fantasy lineups. While his strikeout rate remains a concern, his wOBA of .372 indicates effective offensive production, suggesting he should remain a valuable asset on fantasy rosters, especially in formats that reward on-base and slugging percentages.
Connor Joe went 1-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in the Pirates' 10-9 win over the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact
His solo shot contributed crucially to the tight victory, marking his fourth homer of the season. Despite a modest .284 average, Joe's ability to drive in runs (18 RBI in 34 games) and his decent on-base skills (0.356 wOBA) keep him relevant in fantasy formats, particularly those that reward power and RBI production. However, his high strikeout rate (0.186) and relatively low walk rate (0.093) suggest some volatility in his performance, which fantasy managers should monitor.
Connor Joe is in the Pirates’ starting lineup Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Joe will draw the start in right field, with Jack Suwinski getting a day of rest. Joe will bat fourth in the series finale against the Giants.
Connor Joe is back in the lineup for the Pittsburgh Pirates against the Milwaukee Brewers Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact

Connor Joe went 1-for-3 with two runs, a home run, two RBI and two walks to only one strike out in the victory against the Washington Nationals.
Fantasy Impact
His ability to draw walks, as evidenced by his two on the day, adds an extra layer of value, especially in formats that reward on-base percentage. Six games into the season, Joe is swinging a hot bat with a .346 average and contributing across multiple categories, including runs, RBIs, and now showing power with his first homer of the year. His playing time is not guaranteed, but given his strong start, fantasy managers should keep an eye on Joe, assuming he maintains anything close to his current pace.
