Shea Langeliers powers up, but A's fall short
by Chris Schommer | Athletics Correspondent | Sat, Jul 6th 9:25am EDT
Shea Langeliers went 1-for-4 in the Athletics' 3-2 loss to the Orioles, contributing with a solo home run.
Fantasy Impact:
While Langeliers's power display was a bright spot, his season-long batting average remains a paltry .205, which continues to be a drag on his fantasy value. However, his 16th homer of the season suggests that he can be a useful source of power, particularly in formats that value home runs and RBI, where his 42 RBI are respectable. Fantasy managers should consider Langeliers as a potential option in two-catcher leagues or as a streaming option when power is needed, but be wary of the impact his low average and high strikeout rate might have on their team's overall performance.
