Zack Gelof adds solo shot in A's loss
by Chris Schommer | Athletics Correspondent | Sun, Jul 14th 9:06am EDT
Zack Gelof went 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI in the Athletics' 11-5 defeat to the Phillies.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance, highlighted by his solo home run, offers a slight boost to his rather modest .204 batting average for the season. Despite the power display, Gelof's high strikeout rate of 0.353 and low walk rate of 0.073 continue to cap his fantasy upside. Owners should view him as a risky play, given his inconsistency at the plate, though his double-digit home run and stolen base totals provide some appeal in deeper leagues. His ability to contribute in multiple categories can be valuable, but expectations should be tempered given his overall hitting struggles this season.
