Nolan Schanuel

Nolan Schanuel is not in the Angels lineup on Wednesday against the Pirates.

Fantasy Impact

Schanuel picked up two hits and drove in one run in Monday's win over Pittsburgh. Brandon Drury gets the start at first base in his absence.

Nolan Schanuel went 3-for-4 in the Angels' victory over the Guardians with a home run, three hits, two runs scored, and one RBI.

Fantasy Impact

This performance could be a sign of Schanuel finding his rhythm at the plate after a modest start to the season. His season batting average now sits at .250, and while his power numbers have been low with only three home runs, today’s long ball might hint at more consistent power production moving forward. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Schanuel, as increased confidence and plate appearances could make him a valuable asset, especially in deeper leagues. His ability to get on base, demonstrated by his .321 wOBA and 13 walks this season, adds another layer of potential value.

Fantasy Impact
