Carson Kelly had a standout performance in the Tigers' 13-5 victory over the Astros, going 3-for-4 with a home run, three runs scored, and an RBI.
Fantasy Impact:
His offensive contributions were a bright spot in a game that saw the Tigers' lineup explode for 13 runs. This game marks a significant uptick in Kelly's performance, raising his season batting average to .246 and adding to his modest home run total. While his season-long numbers suggest a middling performance, games like this highlight his potential value in fantasy leagues, especially in formats that reward power from the catcher position. Kelly's ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities, as evidenced by his three runs scored, could make him a viable streaming option or a low-end starter in deeper leagues, depending on the availability of catchers with more consistent offensive production.
